Teichmüller curves are geodesic discs in Teichmüller space that project to algebraic curves C in the moduli space M g . Some Teichmüller curves can be considered as components of Hurwitz spaces. We show that the absolute Galois group G ℚ acts faithfully on the set of these embedded curves. We also compare the action of G ℚ on π 1 ( C ) with the one on π 1 ( M g ) and obtain a relation in the Grothendieck–Teichmüller group, seemingly independent of the known ones.
