Abstract

Let QS*(S 1) be the space of quasisymmetric homeomorphisms of the unit circle such that the corresponding subspace of the universal Teichmüller space has Weil-Petersson metric. In this paper we give a necessary condition for a quasisymmetric homeomorphism to belong to QS*(S 1) from the aspect of cross-ratio distortion.
