We will start by introducing the Teichmüller space of a surface, which parametrizes the possible conformal structures it supports. By defining this space analytically, we can equip it with the Lp metrics, of which the Teichmüller and Weil-Petersson metrics are special cases. We will discuss the incompleteness of the Lp metrics on Teichmüller space and what we know about their completions.
