In this paper we prove the following. Let $\Sigma$ be an $n$--dimensional closed hyperbolic manifold and let $g$ be a Riemannian metric on $\Sigma \times \mathbb{S}^1$. Given an upper bound on the volumes of unit balls in the Riemannian…

We prove that all hierarchically hyperbolic spaces have finite asymptotic dimension and obtain strong bounds on these dimensions. One application of this result is to obtain the sharpest known bound on the asymptotic dimension of the…

For a smooth map $f:X^4\to\Sigma^2$ that is locally modeled by holomorphic maps, the domain is shown to admit a symplectic structure that is symplectic on some regular fiber, if and only if $f^*[\Sigma]\ne0$. If so, the space of symplectic…

Let $\Sigma$ be a hyperbolic surface. We study the set of curves on $\Sigma$ of a given type, i.e. in the mapping class group orbit of some fixed but otherwise arbitrary $\gamma_0$. For example, in the particular case that $\Sigma$ is a…

We consider a functional related with phase transition models in the Heisenberg group framework. We prove that level sets of local minimizers satisfy some density estimates, that is, they behave as "codimension one" sets. We thus deduce a…

We show that the length $R$ of a systole of a closed hyperbolic $n$-manifold $(n \geq 3)$ admitting a triangulation by $t$ $n$-simplices can be bounded below by a function of $n$ and $t$, namely \[ R \geq \frac{1}{2^{(nt)^{O(n^4t)} }} .\]…

In this paper the index of a family of critical points of the systole function on Teichm\"uller space is calculated. The members of this family are interesting in that their existence implies the existence of strata in the Thurston spine…

Given any irreducible Coxeter group $C$ of hyperbolic type with non-linear diagram and rank at least $4$, whose maximal parabolic subgroups are finite, we construct an infinite family of locally spherical regular hypertopes of hyperbolic…

We describe a new method for constraining Laplacian spectra of hyperbolic surfaces and 2-orbifolds. The main ingredient is consistency of the spectral decomposition of integrals of products of four automorphic forms. Using a combination of…

How many strict local maxima can a real quadratic function on $\{0,1\}^n$ have? Holzman conjectured a maximum of $n \choose \lfloor n/2 \rfloor$. The aim of this paper is to prove this conjecture. Our approach is via a generalization of…

We give a detailed description of the arithmetic Fuchsian group of the Bolza surface and the associated quaternion order. This description enables us to show that the corresponding principal congruence covers satisfy the bound sys(X) > 4/3…

In this article we study the differences of two consecutive eigenvalues $\lambda_{i}-\lambda_{i-1}$ up to $i=2g-2$ for the Laplacian on hyperbolic surfaces of genus $g$, and show that the supremum of such spectral gaps over the moduli space…

Given a closed hyperbolic 3-manifold M of volume V, and a link L in M such that the complement M \ L is hyperbolic, we establish a bound for the systole length of M \ L in terms of V. This extends a result of Adams and Reid, who showed that…

This paper discusses the dynamics of continuum-wise hyperbolic surface homeomorphisms. We prove that $cw_F$-hyperbolic surface homeomorphisms containing only a finite set of spines are $cw_2$-hyperbolic. In the case of $cw_3$-hyperbolic…

We give the asymptotic growth of the number of (multi-)arcs of bounded length between boundary components on complete finite-area hyperbolic surfaces with boundary. Specifically, if $S$ has genus $g$, $n$ boundary components and $p$…

We prove upper bounds for geodesic periods of automorphic forms over general rank one locally symmetric spaces. Such periods are integrals of automorphic forms restricted to special totally geodesic cycles of the ambient manifold and…

We are interested in the algebraic properties of groups of local biholomorphisms and their consequences. A natural question is whether the complexity of solvable groups is bounded by the dimension of the ambient space. In this spirit we…

A graph G is locally isometric if the subgraph induced by the neighbourhood of every vertex is an isometric subgraph of G. It is shown that the hamilton cycle problem for locally isometric graphs with maximum degree at most 8 is…

Let $\alpha$ be a contact form on a connected closed three-manifold $\Sigma$. The systolic ratio of $\alpha$ is defined as $\rho_{\mathrm{sys}}(\alpha):=\tfrac{1}{\mathrm{Vol}(\alpha)}T_{\min}(\alpha)^2$, where $T_{\min}(\alpha)$ and…

We discuss two generalizations of the collar lemma. The first is the stable neighborhood theorem which says that a (not necessarily simple) closed geodesic in a hyperbolic surface has a \lq\lq stable neighborhood\rq\rq whose width only…
