We calculate a projective space of essential measured laminations in a surface pair, which will be used in another paper to help describe spaces of "finite height laminations."
We give a Thurston-like definition for laminations on higher Teichmuller spaces associated to a surface $S$ and a semi-simple group $G$ for $G-SL_m$ and $PGL_m$. The case $G=SL_2$ or $PGL_2$ corresponds to the classical theory of…
A ringed finite space is a ringed space whose underlying topological space is finite. The category of ringed finite spaces contains, fully faithfully, the category of finite topological spaces and the category of affine schemes. Any ringed…
We describe a construction of ordered algebraic structures (ordered abelian semigroups, ordered commutative semirings, etc.) and describe applications to codimension-1 laminations. For a suitable ordered semi- algebraic structure $\mathbb…
In [Mor], we have introduced a notion of flat laminations on surfaces endowed with a flat structure, similar to geodesic laminations on hyperbolic surfaces. Here is a sequel to this article that aims at defining transversal measures on flat…

We construct minimal laminations by hyperbolic surfaces whose generic leaf is a disk and contain any prescribed family of surfaces and with a precise control of the topologies of the surfaces that appear. The laminations are constructed via…
We prove that for each sufficiently complicated orientable surface $S$, there exists an infinite image linear representation $\rho$ of $\pi_1(S)$ such that if $\gamma\in\pi_1(S)$ is freely homotopic to a simple closed curve on $S$, then…
For any finite type connected surface $S$, we give an infinite presentation of the fundamental group $\pi_1(S,\ast)$ of $S$ based at an interior point $\ast\in{S}$ whose generators are represented by simple loops. When $S$ is…

We prove that any action of a higher rank lattice on a Gromov-hyperbolic space is elementary. More precisely, it is either elliptic or parabolic. This is a large generalization of the fact that any action of a higher rank lattice on a tree…
We consider quadric surface fibrations over curves, defined over algebraically closed and finite fields. Our goal is to understand, in geometric terms, spaces of sections for such fibrations. We analyze varieties of maximal isotropic…
We consider the number of configurations of a surface in two dimensions that has a prescribed length and encloses a prescribed perimeter with respect to a baseline. An approximate analytical treatment in a semi--continuum compares…
In a general triangulated category, the finiteness of the finitistic dimension serves as a prerequisite for a categorical obstruction, via the singularity category, to the existence of bounded $t$-structures. In this paper, we investigate…
We study H-structures associated to SU-rank 1 measurable structures. We prove that the SU-rank of the expansion is continuous and that it is uniformly definable in terms of the parameters of the formulas. We also introduce notions of…
A polygonal surface in the pseudo-hyperbolic space H^(2,n) is a complete maximal surface bounded by a lightlike polygon in the Einstein universe Ein^(1,n) with finitely many vertices. In this article, we give several characterizations of…
We show that for every $\epsilon>0$, there exists a compact lamination by $\epsilon$-holomorphic surfaces in the complex projective plane, minimal, and that carries hyperbolic holonomy. We call $\epsilon$-holomorphic a real 2-dimensional…
Since their introduction by Thurston, geodesic laminations on hyperbolic surfaces occur in many contexts. In this paper, we propose a generalization of geodesic laminations on locally CAT(0), complete, geodesic metric spaces, whose boundary…
In this paper, we study the geometry of surfaces with the generalised simple lift property. This work generalises previous results by Bernstein and Tinaglia, and it is motivated by the fact that leaves of a minimal lamination obtained as a…
From descent theory to higher geometry, the idea of gluing has been embedded in many elegant and powerful techniques, proving instrumental for the solution of many problems. In this paper, we introduce a framework that allows to link…
