We consider the moduli space $\mathfrak{M}_{g,n}$ of Riemann surfaces of genus $g\ge0$ with $n\ge1$ ordered and directed marked points. For $d\ge 2g+n-1$ we show that $\mathfrak{M}_{g,n}$ is homotopy equivalent to a component of the…

Let $\Sigma^p_g$ denote a surface of genus $g$ and with $p$ punctures. Our main result is that the fraction of degree $n$ covers of $\Sigma^p_g$ which have the Putman-Wieland property tends to $1$ as $n\to \infty$. In addition, we show that…

We prove that for every nonnegative integer $g$, there exists a bound on the number of ends of a complete, embedded minimal surface $M$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$ of genus $g$ and finite topology. This bound on the finite number of ends when $M$ has…

We state and prove a corrected version of a theorem of Singerman, which relates the existence of symmetries (anticonformal involutions) of a quasiplatonic Riemann surface $\mathcal S$ (one uniformised by a normal subgroup $N$ of finite…

Belolipetsky and Jones classified those compact Riemann surfaces of genus $g$ admitting a large group of automorphisms of order $\lambda (g-1)$, for each $\lambda >6,$ under the assumption that $g-1$ is a prime number. In this article we…

We determine the quantum cohomology of the moduli space of odd degree rank two stable vector bundles over a Riemann surface $\Sigma$ of any genus. This work together with dg-ga/9710029 prove that this quantum cohomology is isomorphic to the…

We study the asymptotics of the Weil-Petersson volumes of the moduli spaces of compact Riemann surfaces of genus $g$ with $n$ punctures, for fixed $n$ as $g \to \infty$.

We study the combinatorial geometry of a random closed multicurve on a surface of large genus and of a random square-tiled surface of large genus. We prove that primitive components of a random multicurve represent linearly independent…

Let $(\Sigma,g)$ be a closed Riemannian surface, $\textbf{G}=\{\sigma_1,\cdots,\sigma_N\}$ be an isometric group acting on it. Denote a positive integer $\ell=\inf_{x\in\Sigma}I(x)$, where $I(x)$ is the number of all distinct points of the…

To the spectral curves of smooth periodic solutions of the $n$-wave equation the points with infinite energy are added. The resulting spaces are considered as generalized Riemann surfcae. In general the genus is equal to infinity,…

For any $\varepsilon>0$, we construct a closed hyperbolic surface of genus $g=g(\varepsilon)$ with a set of at most $\varepsilon g$ systoles that fill, meaning that each component of the complement of their union is contractible. This…

We establish the lower bound of $4\pi(1+g)$ for the area of the Gauss map of any immersion of a closed oriented surface of genus $g$ into $\mathbb{S}^3$, taking values in the Grassmannian of $2$-planes in $\mathbb{R}^4$. This lower bound is…

Given a smooth, irreducible, projective surface $S$, let $g(S)$ be the minimum geometric genus of an irreducible curve that moves in a linear system of positive dimension on $S$. We determine the value of this birational invariant for a…

Let $(M,g,\sigma)$ be a compact Riemmannian surface equipped with a spin structure $\sigma$. For any metric $\tilde{g}$ on $M$, we denote by $\mu\_1(\tilde{g})$ (resp. $\lambda\_1(\tilde{g})$) the first positive eigenvalue of the Laplacian…

In this paper, we consider a closed Riemannian manifold $M^{n+1}$ with dimension $3\leq n+1\leq 7$, and a compact Lie group $G$ acting as isometries on $M$ with cohomogeneity at least $3$. After adapting the Almgren-Pitts min-max theory to…

We consider the relationship of the geometry of compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary to the first nonzero eigenvalue sigma_1 of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map (Steklov eigenvalue). For surfaces Sigma with genus gamma and k boundary…

We prove Poisson approximation results for the bottom part of the length spectrum of a random closed hyperbolic surface of large genus. Here, a random hyperbolic surface is a surface picked at random using the Weil-Petersson volume form on…

We describe some topological structure in the set of all surfaces with finitely many singularities in the 3-sphere. As an application, we prove that every Riemannian 3-sphere of positive Ricci curvature contains, for every g, a genus g…
