We obtain an essential spectral gap for a convex co-compact hyperbolic surface $M=\Gamma\backslash\mathbb H^2$ which depends only on the dimension $\delta$ of the limit set. More precisely, we show that when $\delta>0$ there exists…

We consider the problem of finding universal bounds of "isoperimetric" or "isodiametric" type on the spectral gap of the Laplacian on a metric graph with natural boundary conditions at the vertices, in terms of various analytical and…

Of all real Lagrangian--Grassmannians $LG(n,2n)$, only $LG(2,4)$ admits a distinguished (Lorentzian) conformal structure and hence is identified with the indefinite M\"obius space $S^{1,2}$. Using Cartan's method of moving frames, we study…

Let $X$ be a compact connected orientable hyperbolic surface and let $X_n$ be a degree $n$ random cover. We show that, with high probability, the distribution of eigenvalues of the Laplacian on $X_n$ converges to the spectral measure of the…

In this paper, we study spectral gaps of closed hyperbolic surfaces for large genus. We show that for any fixed $k\geq 1$, as the genus goes to infinity, the maximum of $\lambda_k-\lambda_{k-1}$ over any thick part of the moduli space of…

In this paper we obtain a bound on the number of isometry classes of finite area hyperbolic surfaces which are length isospectral to a given surface depending only on the topological type of the surface and the length of the shortest closed…

We study the degeneration of hyperbolic surfaces along a ray given by the harmonic map parametrization of Teichm\"uller space. The direction of the ray is determined by a holomorphic quadratic differential on a punctured Riemann surface,…

We show that each limiting semiclassical measure obtained from a sequence of eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on a compact hyperbolic surface is supported on the entire cosphere bundle. The key new ingredient for the proof is the fractal…

The crossing equations of a conformal field theory can be systematically truncated to a finite, closed system of polynomial equations. In certain cases, solutions of the truncated equations place strict bounds on the space of all unitary…

We consider an open manifold which is the interior of a compact manifold with boundary. Assuming gauge invariance, we classify magnetic fields with compact support into being trapping or non-trapping. We study spectral properties of the…

We investigate the asymptotic spectral distribution of the twisted Laplacian associated with a real harmonic 1-form on a compact hyperbolic surface. In particular, we establish a sublinear lower bound on the number of eigenvalues in a…

We study an exponential sum over Laplacian eigenvalues $\lambda_{j} = 1/4+t_{j}^{2}$ with $t_{j} \leqslant T$ for Maass cusp forms on $\Gamma \backslash \mathbb{H}$, where $\Gamma$ is a cofinite Fuchsian group acting on the upper half-plane…

Our main result is that for all sufficiently large $x_0>0$, the set of commensurability classes of arithmetic hyperbolic 2- or 3-orbifolds with fixed invariant trace field $k$ and systole bounded below by $x_0$ has density one within the…

A spectral method is considered for approximating the fractional Laplacian and solving the fractional Poisson problem in 2D and 3D unit balls. The method is based on the explicit formulation of the eigenfunctions and eigenvalues of the…

Let $\Gamma < G := \operatorname{SO}(d+1, 1)$ for $d \geq 1$ be a Zariski dense, geometrically finite, discrete subgroup with critical exponent strictly greater than $d/2$. We show that $L^2(\Gamma\backslash G)$ admits a strong spectral…
