This article deals with the set of closed geodesics on complete finite type hyperbolic surfaces. For any non-negative integer $k$, we consider the set of closed geodesics that self-intersect at least $k$ times, and investigate those of…
We consider the problem of when a closed orientable hyperbolic surface admits a totally geodesic embedding into a closed orientable hyperbolic 3-manifold; given a finite isometric group action on the surface, we consider in particular…
This paper is about a type of quantitative density of closed geodesics and orthogeodesics on complete finite-area hyperbolic surfaces. The main results are upper bounds on the length of the shortest closed geodesic and the shortest doubly…
We show that the number of simple closed geodesics of length bounded by L on a hyperbolic surface of genus g with c cusps and b boundary components grows roughly like L^{6g+2b+2c-6}. This has been conjectured for some time.
We show that a relatively hyperbolic graph with uniformly hyperbolic peripheral subgraphs is hyperbolic. As an application, we show that the disc graph and the electrified disc graph of a handlebody H of genus g>1 are hyperbolic, and we…
We adapt linear programming methods from sphere packings to closed hyperbolic surfaces and obtain new upper bounds on their systole, their kissing number, the first positive eigenvalue of their Laplacian, the multiplicity of their first…
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…
We construct the first examples of rationally convex surfaces in the complex plane with hyperbolic complex tangencies. In fact, we give two very different types of rationally convex surfaces: those that admit analytic fillings by…
We establish certain uniform a priori bounds for hyperbolic components of disjoint type. As an application, we will prove that Sierpinski carpet hyperbolic components of disjoint type are bounded. Furthermore, we show that for each map $f$…
In this paper we examine the geometry of minimal surfaces of arithmetic hyperbolic 3-manifolds. In particular, we give bounds on the totally geodesic 2-systole, construct infinitely many incommensurable manifolds with the same initial…
Let $\Gamma_g$ be the fundamental group of a closed connected orientable surface of genus $g\geq2$. We introduce a combinatorial structure of "core surfaces", that represent subgroups of $\Gamma_g$. These structures are (usually)…
Let $\mathcal{M}_g$ be the moduli space of hyperbolic surfaces of genus $g$ endowed with the Weil-Petersson metric. In this paper, we show that for any $\epsilon>0$, as $g\to \infty$, for a generic surface in $\mathcal{M}_g$, the error term…
Let $M =\mathbb{H}^3/\Gamma$ be a finite-volume, noncompact hyperbolic 3-manifold. We show that the number of quasi-Fuchsian surface subgroups of $\Gamma$ (up to conjugacy and commensurability) of genus at most $g$ is bounded both above and…
Given a hyperelliptic hyperbolic surface $S$ of genus $g \geq 2$, we find bounds on the lengths of homologically independent loops on $S$. As a consequence, we show that for any $\lambda \in (0,1)$ there exists a constant $N(\lambda)$ such…
For every group $G$, we introduce the set of hyperbolic structures on $G$, denoted $\mathcal{H}(G)$, which consists of equivalence classes of (possibly infinite) generating sets of $G$ such that the corresponding Cayley graph is hyperbolic;…
We construct a quasiconformally homogeneous hyperbolic Riemann surface-other than the hyperbolic plane-that does not admit a bounded pants decomposition. Also, given a connected orientable topological surface of infinite type with compact…
A basic feature of Teichm\"uller theory of Riemann surfaces is the interplay of two dimensional hyperbolic geometry, the behavior of geodesic-length functions and Weil-Petersson geometry. Let $\mathcal{T}_g$ $(g\geq 2)$ be the Teichm\"uller…
Let F be the fundamental group of S, where S is a compact, connected, oriented surface with negative Euler characteristic and nonempty boundary. (1) The projective class of the chain \partial S in B_1(F) intersects the interior of a…
We prove that in the complement of a highly twisted link, all closed, essential, meridionally incompressible surfaces must have high genus. The genus bound is proportional to the number of crossings per twist region. A similar result holds…
Let $M$ be a closed hyperbolic 3-manifold that admits no infinitesimal conformally-flat deformations. Examples of such manifolds were constructed by Kapovich. Then if $g$ is a Riemannian metric on $M$ with scalar curvature greater than or…
