We describe the inverse image of the Riemannian exponential map at a basepoint of a compact symmetric space as the disjoint union of so called focal orbits through a maximal torus. These are orbits of a subgroup of the isotropy group acting…
Let $S$ be an orientable surface with negative Euler characteristic. For $k \in \mathbb{N}$, let $\mathcal{C}_{k}(S)$ denote the $\textit{k-curve graph}$, whose vertices are isotopy classes of essential simple closed curves on $S$, and…
The central extension of the mapping class groups of punctured surfaces of finite type that arises in quantum Teichm\"uller theory is 12 times the Meyer class plus the Euler classes of the punctures. This is analogous to the result obtained…
Building on the work of Cassels we prove the existence of infinite families of compact orbits of the diagonal group in the space of lattices which accumulate only on the divergent orbit of the standard lattice. As a consequence, we prove…
For every positive, continuous and homogeneous function $f$ on the space of currents on a compact surface $\overline{\Sigma}$, and for every compactly supported filling current $\alpha$, we compute as $L \to \infty$, the number of mapping…
We show that both Teichmuller space (with the Teichmuller metric) and the mapping class group (with a word metric) have geodesic divergence that is intermediate between the linear rate of flat spaces and the exponential rate of hyperbolic…
Lipman Bers' universal Teichm\"uller space, classically denoted by $T(1)$, plays a significant role in Teichm\"uller theory, because all the Teichm\"uller spaces $T(G)$ of Fuchsian groups $G$ can be embedded into it as complex submanifolds.…
We study the class of holomorphic and isometric submersions between finite-type Teichm\"uller spaces. We prove that, with potential exceptions coming from low-genus phenomena, any such map is a forgetful map $\mathcal{T}_{g,n} \rightarrow…
We compute the asymptotics of the number of integral quadratic forms with prescribed orthogonal decompositions and, more generally, the asymptotics of the number of lattice points lying in sectors of affine symmetric spaces. A new key…
We start by describing how ideal triangulations on a surface degenerate under pinching of a multicurve. We use this process to construct a homomorphism from the Ptolemy groupoid of a surface to that of a pinched surface which is natural…
We prove Strichartz estimates for a class of Baouendi--Grushin operators acting either on the Euclidean space or a product of the type $\mathbb{R}^{d_1} \times M$, where $(M,g)$ is a smooth compact manifold with no boundary. We then give an…
An important problem in analytic and geometric combinatorics is estimating the number of lattice points in a compact convex set in a Euclidean space. Such estimates have numerous applications throughout mathematics. In this note, we exhibit…
We prove an effective equidistribution result for periodic orbits of semisimple groups on congruence quotients of an ambient semisimple group. This extends previous work of Einsiedler, Margulis and Venkatesh. The main new feature is that we…
Let $S=S_{g,p}$ be a compact, orientable surface of genus $g$ with $p$ punctures and such that $d(S):=3g-3+p>0$. The mapping class group $\textup{Mod}_S$ acts properly discontinuously on the Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal T(S)$ of marked…
In this paper we will use b-groups to construct coordinates for the Teichm\"uller spaces of 2-orbifolds. The main technical tool is the parametrization of triangle groups, which allows us to compute explicitly formul\ae\ for generators of…
We establish a link between the behavior of length functions on Teichm\"uller space and the geometry of certain anti de Sitter 3-manifolds. As an application, we give new purely anti de Sitter proofs of results of Teichm\"uller theory such…
We provide a geometric construction of the unitary structure which is projectively preserved by the Hitchin connection. We analyze the asymptotic behavior of it and we establish that it is uniformly in the level equivalent to the Hermitian…
The notion of effective topological complexity, introduced by B{\l}aszczyk and Kaluba, deals with using group actions in the configuration space in order to reduce the complexity of the motion planning algorithm. In this article we focus on…
The space of smooth sections of a symplectic fiber bundle carries a natural symplectic structure. We provide a general framework to determine the momentum map for the action of the group of bundle automorphism on this space. Since, in…
We study the action of the elements of the mapping class group of a surface of finite type on the Teichm\"uller space of that surface equipped with Thurston's asymmetric metric. We classify such actions as elliptic, parabolic, hyperbolic…
