Variation of Laplace spectra of compact "nearly" hyperbolic surfaces

Differential Geometry 2016-01-28 v1

Abstract

We use the time real analyticity of Ricci flow proved by Kotschwar to extend a result in ~\cite{B}, namely, we prove that the Laplace spectra of negatively curved compact surfaces having same genus γ2\gamma \geq 2, same area and same curvature bounds vary in a "controlled way", of which we give a quantitative estimate (Theorem 1.1 below). We also observe how said real analyticity can lead to unexpected conclusions about spectral properties of generic metrics on a compact surface of genus γ2\gamma \geq 2 (Proposition 1.5 below).
