We prove theholomorphic rigidity conjecture of Teichmüller spacewhich loosely speaking states that the action of the mapping class group uniquely determines the Teichmüller space as a complex manifold. The method of proof is through harmonic maps. We prove that the singular set of a harmonic map from a smoothn-dimensional Riemannian domain to the Weil–Petersson completionof Teichmüller space has Hausdorff dimension at most, and moreover,uhas certain decay near the singular set. Combining this with the earlier work of Schumacher, Siu and Jost-Yau, we provide a proof of the holomorphic rigidity of Teichmüller space. In addition, our results provide as a byproduct a harmonic maps proof of both the high rank and the rank one superrigidity of the mapping class group proved via other methods by Farb–Masur and Yeung.
