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…

We investigate the asymptotic behavior of high-codimensional area-minimizing locally rectifiable currents in hyperbolic space, addressing a problem posed by F.H. Lin and establishing ``boundary regularity at infinity" results for such…

In this article we study the asymptotic behavior of small eigenvalues of Riemann surfaces for large genus. We show that for any positive integer $k$, as the genus $g$ goes to infinity, the smallest $k$-th eigenvalue of Riemann surfaces in…

We study minimal Lagrangian surfaces in the complex hyperbolic quadric. We show that minimality of a Lagrangian surface is characterized by a loop of flat connections, which yields an associated $\mathbb S^1$-family of isometric…

For a surface $S$ with $n$ marked points and fixed genus $g\geq2$, we prove that the logarithm of the minimal dilatation of a pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism of $S$ is on the order of $(\log n)/n$. This is in contrast with the cases of genus…

Given a Riemannian surface, we consider a naturally embedded graph which captures part of the topology and geometry of the surface. By studying this graph, we obtain results in three different directions. First, we find bounds on the…

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 show that the minimal volume of surfaces of log general type, with non-empty non-klt locus on the ample model, is $\frac{1}{825}$. Furthermore, the ample model $V$ achieving the minimal volume is determined uniquely up to isomorphism.…

We consider a minimal compact lamination by hyperbolic surfaces. We prove that if it admits a leaf whose holonomy covering is not topologically trivial, then the horocycle flow on its unitary tangent bundle is minimal.
