After having investigated the geodesic and translation triangles and their angle sums in $\SOL$ and $\SLR$ geometries we consider the analogous problem in $\NIL$ space that is one of the eight 3-dimensional Thurston geometries. We analyze…

Let X be a closed oriented Riemann surface of genus > 1 of constant negative curvature -1. A surface containing a disk of maximal radius is an optimal surface. This paper gives exact formulae for the number of optimal surfaces of genus > 3…

In this paper, we obtain an improved upper bound involving the systole and area for the volume entropy of a Riemannian surface. As a result, we show that every orientable and closed Riemannian surface of genus $g\geq 18$ satisfies Loewner's…

The so-called {\it kissing number} for hyperbolic surfaces is the maximum number of homotopically distinct systoles a surface of given genus $g$ can have. These numbers, first studied (and named) by Schmutz Schaller by analogy with lattice…

We apply a study of orders in quaternion algebras, to the differential geometry of Riemann surfaces. The least length of a closed geodesic on a hyperbolic surface is called its systole, and denoted syspi_1. P. Buser and P. Sarnak…

We give effective estimates for the number of saddle connections on a translation surface that have length $\leq L$ and are in a prescribed homology class modulo $q$. Our estimates apply to almost all translation surfaces in a stratum of…

A \emph{surface of translation} is a sum $(u,v)\mapsto\gt\alpha(u)+\gt\beta(v)$ of two space curves: a \emph{path} $\gt\alpha$ and a \emph{profile} $\gt\beta$. A fundamental problem of differential geometry and shell theory is to determine…

We show that suitably defined systolic ratios are globally bounded from above on the space of rotationally symmetric spindle orbifolds and that the upper bound is attained precisely at so-called Besse metrics, i.e. Riemannian orbifold…

We examine the large systole problem, which concerns compact hyperbolic Riemannian surfaces whose systole, the length of the shortest noncontractible loops, grows logarithmically in genus. The generalization of a construction of Buser and…

For hyperbolic surfaces with geodesic boundary, we study the orthosystole, i.e. the length of a shortest essential arc from the boundary to the boundary. We recover and extend work by Bavard completely characterizing the surfaces maximizing…

We classify translation surfaces in isotropic geometry with arbitrary constant isotropic Gaussian and mean curvature under the condition that at least one of translating curves lies in a plane.

Symplectic capacities are invariants in symplectic geometry that are used to obstruct symplectic embeddings. From a certain symplectic capacity, the Ekeland-Hofer-Zehnder capacity, one can construct the systolic ratio, which measures the…

We prove by methods of harmonic analysis a result on existence of solutions for twisted cohomological equations on translation surfaces with loss of derivatives at most 3+ in Sobolev spaces. As a consequence we prove that product…

Translation surfaces can be defined in an elementary way via polygons, and arise naturally in in the study of various basic dynamical systems. They can also be defined as Abelian differentials on Riemann surfaces, and have moduli spaces…

We study growth of absolute and homological $k$-dimensional systoles of arithmetic $n$-manifolds along congruence coverings. Our main interest is in the growth of systoles of manifolds whose real rank $r > 1$. We observe, in particular,…

We prove some estimates of the volumes of the sets of translation surfaces of unit area having several independent small saddle connections in a rank one affine submanifold.

We study flat metrics arising from right regular $n$-prisms by viewing them as $n$-differentials and analyzing their associated unfoldings. We show that the unfolding of a right regular $n$-prism is never a lattice surface unless $n=4$, in…

Veech groups are an important tool to examine translation surfaces and related mathematical objects. Origamis, also known as square-tiled surfaces, form an interesting class of translation surfaces with finite index subgroups of SL(2,Z) as…

We prove an effective version of a celebrated result of Eskin and Masur: for any affine invariant manifold of translation surfaces, almost every translation surface has quadratic growth for the saddle connection holonomy vectors, with an…
