| In this talk we show how Teichmüller curves can be used to compute quantum invariants of certain Pseudo-Anasov mapping tori. This involves computing monodromy of the Hitchin connection along closed geodesics of the Teichmüller curve using iterated integrals. We will mainly focus on the well known Teichmüller curve generated by a pair of regular pentagons. This is joint work with J. E. Andersen. | |||
