Let $f:T^2\to\mathbb{R}$ be a Morse function on $2$-torus $T^2$ such that its Kronrod-Reeb graph $\Gamma(f)$ has exactly one cycle, i.e. it is homotopy equivalent to $S^1$. Under some additional conditions we describe a homotopy type of the…

We prove that, if a closed geodesic $\Gamma$ on a complete finite type hyperbolic surface has at least 2 self-intersections, then the length of $\Gamma$ has an lower bound $2\log(5+2\sqrt6)$, and the lower bound is sharp, attained on a…

We show that on compact Riemann surfaces of negative curvature, the generalized periods, i.e. the $\nu$-th order Fourier coefficient of eigenfunctions $e_\lambda$ over a period geodesic $\gamma$ goes to 0 at the rate of…

Let M be an orientable hyperbolic surface without boundary and let $\gamma$ be a closed geodesic in M. We prove that any side of any triangle formed by distinct lifts of $\gamma$ in H2 is shorter than $\gamma$.

We study properties of typical closed geodesics on expander surfaces of high genus, i.e. closed hyperbolic surfaces with a uniform spectral gap of the Laplacian. Under an additional systole lower bound assumption, we show almost every…

Given a Riemannian manifold $M$ and an $L^2$-normalized Laplacian eigenfunction $\psi$ on $M$ with eigenvalue $\lambda^2$, a general problem in analysis is to understand how the mass of $\psi$ distributes around $M$. There are different…

The global extendibility of smooth causal geodesically incomplete spacetimes is investigated. Denote by $\gamma$ one of the incomplete non-extendible causal geodesics of a causal geodesically incomplete spacetime $(M,g_{ab})$. First, it is…
