Fundamental groups, slalom curves and extremal length
Abstract
We define the extremal length of elements of the fundamental group of the twice punctured complex plane and give upper and lower bounds for this invariant. The bounds differ by a multiplicative constant. The main motivation comes from 3-braid invariants and their application.
