We describe the inverse image of the Riemannian exponential map at a basepoint of a compact symmetric space as the disjoint union of so called focal orbits through a maximal torus. These are orbits of a subgroup of the isotropy group acting…

This paper is the next installment of our analysis of length-commensurable locally symmetric spaces begun in Publ. math. IHES 109(2009), 113-184. For a Riemannian manifold $M$, we let $L(M)$ be the weak length spectrum of $M$, i.e. the set…

A closed Teichmuller geodesic in the moduli space M_g of Riemann surfaces of genus g is called L-short if it has length at most L/g. We show that, for any L > 0, there exist e_2 > e_1 > 0, independent of g, so that the L-short geodesics in…

Inspired by a classical theorem of topological dimension theory, we prove that every geodesic metric space of asymptotic dimension $n$ containing a bi-infinite geodesic can be coarsely separated by a subset $S$ of asymptotic dimension equal…

Given any countable group $G$, we construct uncountably many quasi-isometry classes of proper geodesic metric spaces with quasi-isometry group isomorphic to $G$. Moreover, if the group $G$ is a hyperbolic group, the spaces we construct are…

Let $\Sigma$ be a closed hyperbolic surface. We study, for fixed $g$, the asymptotics of the number of those periodic geodesics in $\Sigma$ having at most length $L$ and which can be written as the product of $g$ commutators. The basic idea…

Upper asymptotic density induces a pseudometric on the power set of the natural numbers, with respect to which $P(\mathbb{N})$ is complete. The collection $D$ of sets with asymptotic density is closed in this pseudometric, and closed…

The purpose of this note is a wide generalization of the topological results of various classes of ideals of rings, semirings, and modules, endowed with Zariski topologies, to strongly irreducible ideals (endowed with Zariski topologies) of…

We obtain asymptotics of sequences of the holomorphic sections of the pluricanonical bundles on ball quotients associated to closed geodesics. A nonvanishing result follows.

We find an upper bound for the asymptotic dimension of a hyperbolic metric space with a set of geodesics satisfying a certain boundedness condition studied by Bowditch. The primary example is a collection of tight geodesics on the curve…

We give explicit formulas for the asymptotic growth rate of the number of summands in tensor powers in certain monoidal categories with finitely many indecomposable objects, and related structures.

In this paper we study volumes of moduli spaces of hyperbolic surfaces with geodesic, cusp and cone boundary components. We compute the volumes in some new cases, in particular when there exists a large cone angle. This allows us to give…

In this paper we compute the asymptotics of the metric on the line bundle over the moduli space of curves that arises when attempting to compute the archimedean height of the algebraic cycle $C-C^-$ in the jacobian of a smooth projective…

In this article, we consider a closed rank one Riemannian manifold $M$ without focal points. Let $P(t)$ be the set of free-homotopy classes containing a closed geodesic on $M$ with length at most $t$, and $\# P(t)$ its cardinality. We…

In this article we provide an integration formula making us able to integrate random variables defined on the moduli space of hyperbolic surfaces which involve the lengths of closed geodesics belonging to a fixed arbitrary mapping class…

We give asymptotic expressions for the number of commuting matrices over finite fields. For this, we use product expansions for the corresponding generating functions.

For a hyperbolic surface S of finite type we consider the set A(S) of angles between closed geodesics on S. Our main result is that there are only finitely many rational multiples of \pi in A(S).

We study the asymptotics of the number N(t) of geometrically distinct closed geodesics of a Riemannian or Finsler metric on a connected sum of two compact manifolds of dimension at least three with non-trivial fundamental groups and apply…

Fix a smooth closed manifold $M$. Let $R_M$ denote the space of all pairs $(g,L)$ such that $g$ is a $C^3$ Riemannian metric on $M$ and the real number $L$ is not the length of any closed $g$-geodesics. A locally constant geodesic count…

We show that mapping class groups associated to all types of real algebraic curves are virtual duality groups. We also deduce some results about the orbifold homotopy groups of the moduli spaces of real algebraic curves. We achieve these…
