For the complex of curves of a closed orientable surface of genus $g$, $\mathcal{C}(S_{g>1})$, the notion of efficient geodesic in was introduced in arXiv:1408.4133. There it was established that there always exists (finitely many)…

We study the geometric and combinatorial effect of smoothing an intersection point in a collection of arcs or curves on a surface. We prove that all taut arcs with fixed endpoints and all taut 1-manifolds with at least two non-disjoint…

Let $\Gamma\subseteq\text{PSL}(2, \mathbb{R})$ correspond to the group of units of norm $1$ in an Eichler order $\mathrm{O}$ of an indefinite quaternion algebra over $\mathbb{Q}$. Closed geodesics on $\Gamma\backslash\mathbb{H}$ correspond…

In this paper, we study arrangements of orthogonal circles, that is, arrangements of circles where every pair of circles must either be disjoint or intersect at a right angle. Using geometric arguments, we show that such arrangements have…

We study the orbit of $\mathbb{R}$ under the Bianchi group $\operatorname{PSL}_2(\mathcal{O}_K)$, where $K$ is an imaginary quadratic field. The orbit, called a Schmidt arrangement $\mathcal{S}_K$, is a geometric realisation, as an…

We compute divisors class groups of singular surfaces. Most notably we produce an exact sequence that relates the Cartier divisors and almost Cartier divisors of a surface to the those of its normalization. This generalizes Hartshorne's…
