We study closed geodesics on hyperbolic surfaces, and give bounds for their angles of intersection and self-intersection, and for the sides of the polygons that they form, depending only on the lengths of the geodesics
The purpose of this note is to construct a sequence of spin hyperbolic surfaces $\Sigma_n$ with genus going to infinity and with a uniform spectral gap for the Dirac operator. Our construction is completely explicit. In particular, the…

We show that semi-arithmetic surfaces of arithmetic dimension two which admit a modular embedding have exponential growth of mean multiplicities in their length spectrum. Prior to this work large mean multiplicities were rigorously…
We compute the Laplacian spectra of singular area-minimising hypersurfaces in the hyperbolic space with prescribed asymptotic data. We also obtain similar results in higher codimension, and explore related extremal properties of the bottom…
