We derive the Weil-Petersson measure on the moduli space of hyperbolic surfaces with defects of arbitrary opening angles and use this to compute its volume. We conjecture a matrix integral computing the corresponding volumes and confirm…

We give an identity involving sums of functions of lengths of simple closed geodesics, known as a McShane identity, on any non-orientable hyperbolic surface with boundary which generalises Mirzakhani's identities on orientable hyperbolic…

We formulate a generalization of the volume conjecture for planar graphs. Denoting by <G, c> the Kauffman bracket of the graph G whose edges are decorated by real "colors" c, the conjecture states that, under suitable conditions, certain…

Recent literature on Weil-Petersson random hyperbolic surfaces has met a consistent obstacle: the necessity to condition the model, prohibiting certain rare geometric patterns (which we call tangles), such as short closed geodesics or…

The study of the intersection cohomology of moduli spaces of semistable bundles was initiated by Frances Kirwan in the 1980's. In this paper, we give a complete geometric proof of a recursive formula, which reduces the calculation of the…

We show that certain structures and constructions of the Whitham theory, an essential part of the perturbation theory of soliton equations, can be instrumental in understanding the geometry of the moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces with…

Recently, a new method was introduced for computing $V_{g,1}(b)$, the Weil-Petersson volumes of the moduli space of Riemann surfaces of genus $g$ with one geodesic boundary of length $b$, various supersymmetric generalizations of them, as…

In this paper, we construct the cut-and-join operator description for the generating functions of all intersection numbers of $\psi$, $\kappa$, and $\Theta$ classes on the moduli spaces $\overline{\mathcal M}_{g,n}$. The cut-and-join…

We give a quantitative estimate for the quantum mean absolute deviation on hyperbolic surfaces of finite area in terms of geometric parameters such as the genus, number of cusps and injectivity radius. It implies a delocalisation result of…

We give a recursive formula, expressed in terms of the characteristic tuples, for the Betti numbers of the boundary of the Milnor fiber of an irreducible quasi-ordinary surface. The singular locus of the surface consists of two components,…

We consider the Riemann moduli space $\mathcal M_{\gamma}$ of conformal structures on a compact surface of genus $\gamma>1$ together with its Weil-Petersson metric $g_{\mathrm{WP}}$. Our main result is that $g_{\mathrm{WP}}$ admits a…

On the thick part of the moduli space of Riemann surfaces, where there is a positive lower bound of the systole of the surface, we show that all Weil-Petersson Riemannian curvatures are bounded, independent of the genus of the surface.

We extend the notion of Epstein maps to conformal metrics on submanifolds of the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^n=\partial_\infty\mathbb{H}^{n+1}$. Using this construction for curves in $\mathbb{S}^2$, we define the W-volume for conformal metrics…

For bordered surfaces S, we develop a complete parallel between the geometry of the combinatorial Teichm\"uller space $T_S^{comb}$ equipped with Kontsevich symplectic form $\omega_K$, and then the usual Weil-Petersson geometry of…

We show that for $k>1$ the number of genus $k$ minimal Lagrangians with area at most $A$ in a product of hyperbolic surfaces grows on the order of $A^{6(k-1)}$, with an explicit leading constant given in terms of the Mirzakhani function. We…

A fundamental result by Gromov and Thurston asserts that, if M is a closed hyperbolic n-manifold, then the simplicial volume |M| of M is equal to vol(M)/v_n, where v_n is a constant depending only on the dimension of M. The same result also…

We establish exponential mixing for the geodesic flow $\varphi_t\colon T^1S\to T^1S$ of an incomplete, negatively curved surface $S$ with cusp-like singularities of a prescribed order. As a consequence, we obtain that the Weil-Petersson…

We establish the background for the study of geodesics on noncompact polygonal surfaces. For illustration, we study the recurrence of geodesics on $Z$-periodic polygonal surfaces. We prove, in particular, that almost all geodesics on a…

In this series of articles, we analyse the level-sets of length functions on the moduli space of compact hyperbolic surfaces of fixed genus. This work ultimately culminates in a proof that typical hyperbolic surfaces have an optimal…

We explicitly compute the diverging factor in the large genus asymptotics of the Weil-Petersson volumes of the moduli spaces of $n$-pointed complex algebraic curves. Modulo a universal multiplicative constant we prove the existence of a…
