In this paper, we consider a closed Riemannian manifold $M^{n+1}$ with dimension $3\leq n+1\leq 7$, and a compact Lie group $G$ acting as isometries on $M$ with cohomogeneity at least $3$. Suppose the union of non-principal orbits…

We consider conditions on the Fenchel-Nielsen parameters of a Riemann surface $X$ that guarantee the surface $X$ is of parabolic type. An interesting class of Riemann surfaces for this problem is the one with finitely many topological ends.…

We describe the "hyperbolic" properties of a riemann surface lamination M canonically associated to every compact three manifolds of curvature less than 1. More precisely, if the geodesic flow is the phase space attached to an ordinary…

We construct geometrically infinite hyperbolic surfaces supporting horocycles with tailored recurrence properties. In particular, we obtain the first examples of non-trivial minimal horocyclic orbit closures and of infinite locally-finite…

In this note we show that the Riemann moduli spaces $M_{g, n}$ equipped with the Weil--Petersson metric are quantum ergodic for $3g+n \geq 4$. We also provide other examples of singular spaces with ergodic geodesic flow for which quantum…

The standard eigenfunctions $\phi_{\lambda} = e^{i < \lambda, x >}$ on flat tori $\R^n / L$ have $L^{\infty}$-norms bounded independently of the eigenvalue. In the case of irrational flat tori, it follows that $L^2$-normalized…

In this article we prove that all boundary points of a minimal oriented hypersurface in a Riemannian manifold are regular, that is, in a neighborhood of any boundary point, the minimal surface is a $\mathcal{C}^{1, \frac14}$ submanifold…

Let $M$ be a closed hyperbolic 3-manifold that admits no infinitesimal conformally-flat deformations. Examples of such manifolds were constructed by Kapovich. Then if $g$ is a Riemannian metric on $M$ with scalar curvature greater than or…
