Poisson approximation of the length spectrum of random surfaces

Probability 2017-11-28 v2 Differential Geometry Geometric Topology

Abstract

Multivariate Poisson approximation of the length spectrum of random surfaces is studied by means of the Chen-Stein method. This approach delivers simple and explicit error bounds in Poisson limit theorems. They are used to prove that Poisson approximation applies to curves of length up to order o(loglogg)o(\log\log g) with gg being the genus of the surface.
