We study the asymptotic behavior of the asymptotic translation lengths on the curve complexes of pseudo-Anosov monodromies in a fibered cone of a fibered hyperbolic 3-manifold $M$ with $b_1(M) \geq 2$. For a sequence $(\Sigma_n, \psi_n)$ of…

Let $M$ be a hyperbolic fibered 3-manifold with $b_1(M) \geq 2$ and let $S$ be a fiber with pseudo-Anosov monodromy $\psi$. We show that there exists a sequence $(R_n, \psi_n)$ of fibers and monodromies contained in the fibered cone of…

Let $M$ be a hyperbolic fibered 3-manifold. We study properties of sequences $(S_{\alpha_n}, \psi_{\alpha_n})$ of fibers and monodromies for primitive integral classes in the fibered cone of $M$. The main tool is the asymptotic translation…

Given a 3-manifold $M$ fibering over the circle, we investigate how the asymptotic translation lengths of pseudo-Anosov monodromies in the arc complex vary as we vary the fibration. We formalize this problem by defining normalized…

Let $S_g$ be a closed orientable surface of genus $g > 1$. Consider the minimal asymptotic translation length $L_{\mathcal{T}}(k, g)$ on the Teichm\"uller space of $S_g$, among pseudo-Anosov mapping classes of $S_g$ acting trivially on a…

Given $M_\varphi$, a fibered 3-manifold with boundary, we show that the translation distance of the monodromy $\varphi$ can be bounded above by the complexity of an essential surface with non-zero slope. Furthermore we prove that the…

We use geometric measure theory to introduce the notion of asymptotic cones associated with a singular subspace of a Riemannian manifold. This extends the classical notion of asymptotic directions usually defined on smooth submanifolds. We…

We define and study geometric versions of the Benoist limit cone and matrix joint spectrum, which we call the translation cone and the joint translation spectrum, respectively. These new notions allow us to generalize the study of…

We establish bounds on the minimal asymptotic pseudo-Anosov translation lengths on the complex of curves of orientable surfaces. In particular, for a closed surface with genus $g \geqslant 2$, we show that there are positive constants $a_1…

A classical theorem of Siegel gives the average number of lattice points in bounded subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n$. Motivated by this result, Veech introduced an analogue for translation surfaces, known as the Siegel-Veech formula, which…

For the right-angled Artin group action on the extension graph, it is known that the minimal asymptotic translation length is bounded above by 2 provided that the defining graph has diameter at least 3. In this paper, we show that the same…

Given a bi-invariant metric on a group, we construct a version of an asymptotic cone without using ultrafilters. The new construction, called the directional asymptotic cone, is a contractible topological group equipped with a complete…

An embedding of a graph on a translation surface is said to be \emph{systolic} if each vertex of the graph corresponds to a singular point (or marked point) and each edge corresponds to a shortest saddle connection on the translation…

We define and give explicit construction of the universal tree-graded space with a given collection of pieces. We apply that to proving uniqueness of asymptotic cones of relatively hyperbolic groups whose peripheral subgroups have unique…

This paper initiates a systematic study of the relation of commensurability of surface automorphisms, or equivalently, fibered commensurability of 3-manifolds fibering over the circle. We show that every hyperbolic fibered commensurability…

A pseudo-Anosov mapping class acts on Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal{T}$ as well as on the curve graph $\mathcal{C}$ with so called north-south dynamics. We can measure a stable translation length $l_\mathcal{T}$ and $l_\mathcal{C}$ of the…

We show that if the monodromy of a 3-manifold M that fibers over the circle has large translation distance in the curve complex, then the rank of the fundamental group of M is 2g+1, where g is the genus of the fiber.

We investigate the maximal solid tubes around short simple geodesics in hyperbolic three-manifolds and how complex length of curves relate to closed, incompressible, least area minimal surfaces. As applications, we prove, there are some…

Let $b$ be a pseudo-Anosov braid whose permutation has a fixed point and let $M_b$ be the mapping torus by the pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism defined on the genus $0$ fiber $F_b$ associated with $b$. This paper describes a structure of the…

A recent preprint of S. Kojima and G. McShane [KM] observes a beautiful explicit connection between Teichm\"uller translation distance and hyperbolic volume. It relies on a key estimate which we supply here: using geometric inflexibility of…
