 The uniformization theorem says a Riemann surface of negative 
  
 Euler characteristic supports a hyperbolic metric. The area of the 
  
 metric depends only on the topology of the surface by the Gauss-Bonnet 
  
 theorem. Are there other geometric quantities of the hyperbolic metric 
  
 which depend only on the topology of the surface? In 1998, G. McShane, 
  
 found such an identity involving the lengths of all simple closed 
  
 geodesics on puncture hyperbolic surfaces. His work was generalized by 
  
 M.Mirzakhani, Tan-Wong-Zhang to surfaces with geodesic boundary in 
  
 2006. We will discuss our recent work on McShane type identity for closed 
  
 surfaces. This is a joint work with Ser-Peow Tan.
