Abstract

Let MgM_g be the moduli space of hyperbolic surfaces of genus gg endowed with the Weil-Petersson metric. In this paper, we show that for any ϵ>0\epsilon>0, as genus gg goes to infinity, a generic surface XMgX\in M_g satisfies that the first eigenvalue λ1(X)>316ϵ\lambda_1(X)>\frac{3}{16}-\epsilon. As an application, we also show that a generic surface XMgX\in M_g satisfies that the diameter diam(X)<(4+ϵ)ln(g)\mathrm{diam}(X)<(4+\epsilon)\ln(g) for large genus.
