The aim of the paper is to prove the following result concerning moduli of curve families in the Heisenberg group. Let $\Omega$ be a domain in the Heisenberg group foliated by a family $\Gamma$ of legendrian curves. Assume that there is a…
The Kor\'anyi ellipsoidal ring $\mathcal{E}$ of radii $B$ and $A$, $0<B<A$, is defined as the image of the Kor\'anyi spherical ring of the same radii and centred at the origin via a linear contact map $L$ in the Heisenberg group. If $K\ge…
Let $\Gamma$ be a finite-index subgroup of the mapping class group of a closed genus $g$ surface that contains the Torelli group. For instance, $\Gamma$ can be the level $L$ subgroup or the spin mapping class group. We show that…

A $\mathrm{U}(p,q)$-Higgs bundle on a Riemann surface (twisted by a line bundle) consists of a pair of holomorphic vector bundles, together with a pair of (twisted) maps between them. Their moduli spaces depend on a real parameter $\alpha$.…
The modulus metric between two points in a subdomain of $\mathbb{R}^n, n\ge 2,$ is defined in terms of moduli of curve families joining the boundary of the domain with a continuum connecting the two points. This metric is one of the…

We give a geometric perspective on the algebra of Drinfeld modular forms for congruence subgroups $\Gamma\leq \GL_2(\bbF_q[T]).$ In particular, we describe an isomorphism between the section ring of a line bundle on the stacky modular curve…
A group $H \cong {\mathbb Z}_{k}^{2g}$, where $g,k \geq 2$ are integers, of conformal automorphisms of a closed Riemann surface $S$ is called a $(g,k)$-Fermat group if it acts freely with quotient $S/H$ of genus $g$. We study some…

Let $Mod_{g}$ be the modular group of surfaces of genus $g$. Each element $[h]\in Mod_{g}$ induces in the integer homology of a surface of genus $g$ a symplectic automorphism $H([h])$ and Poincar\'{e} shown that $H:Mod_{g}\to…
We say that a collection Gamma of geodesics in the hyperbolic plane H^2 is a modular pattern if Gamma is invariant under the modular group PSL_2(Z), if there are only finitely many PSL_2(Z)-equivalence classes of geodesics in Gamma, and if…
We study surface groups $\Gamma$ in $SO(4,1)$, which is the group of Mobius tranformations of $S^3$, and also the group of isometries of $\mathbb{H}^4$. We consider such $\Gamma$ so that its limit set $\Lambda_\Gamma$ is a quasi-circle in…
