We show that in any non-arithmetic rank 1 orbit closure of translation surfaces, there are only finitely many Teichm\"uller curves. We also show that in any non-arithmetic rank 1 orbit closure, any completely parabolic surface is Veech.
We study infinite superelliptic curves as translation surfaces and explore their Veech groups. These objects are branched covering of the complex plane with branching over infinitely many points. We provide a criterion for isomorphism…
For every half-translation surface with marked points $(M,\Sigma)$, we construct an associated tessellation $\Pi(M,\Sigma)$ of the Poincar\'e upper half plane whose tiles have finitely many sides and area at most $\pi$. The tessellation…
A translation structure on a surface is an atlas of charts to the plane so that the transition functions are translations. We allow our surfaces to be non-compact and infinite genus. We endow the space of all pointed surfaces equipped with…
Using the theory of holes of the Leech lattice and Borcherds method for the computation of the automorphism group of a K3 surface, we give an effective bound for the set of isomorphism classes of projective models of fixed degree for…
Abelian differentials on Riemann surfaces can be seen as translation surfaces, which are flat surfaces with cone-type singularities. Closed geodesics for the associated flat metrics form cylinders whose number under a given maximal length…
Let $(X,\omega)$ be a translation surface whose Veech group $\Gamma$ is a lattice. We prove that the generic orbit of the group of affine homeomorphisms of $(X,\omega)$ can be used to approximate each point of $X$ with Diophantine…
A translational surface is a tensor product surface constructed from two space curves by translating one along the other. These surfaces are common within geometric modeling and, since their description is parametric, it is desirable to…
A translation surface of Euclidean space $\r^3$ is the sum of two regular curves $\alpha$ and $\beta$, called the generating curves. In this paper we classify the minimal translation surfaces of $\r^3$ and we give a method of construction…
A translation surface is a surface formed by identifying edges of a collection of polygons in the complex plane that are parallel and of equal length using only translations. We determined that the same circle packing can be realized on…
We consider translation surfaces in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space which are of coordinate finite type with respect to the third fundamental form $III$, i.e. their position vector $x$ satisfies the relation $\Delta^{III}x = \Lambda x$,…
In [LT16], Kathryn Lindsey and the second author constructed a translation surface from a bi-infinite Bratteli diagram. We continue an investigation into these surfaces. The construction given in [LT16] was essentially combinatorial. Here,…
We announce a classification of genus 2 Veech surfaces in the stratum with a single double zero. Furthermore, we classify all completely periodic translation surfaces in genus 2.
We provide a combinatorial criterion for the finite generation of a valuation semigroup associated with an ample divisor on a smooth toric surface and a non-toric valuation of maximal rank. As an application, we construct a lattice polytope…
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…
Let $\Lambda_1$, $\Lambda_2$ be two discrete orbits under the linear action of a lattice $\Gamma<\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$ on the Euclidean plane. We prove a Siegel$-$Veech-type integral formula for the averages $$…
The paper contains a general construction which produces new examples of non simply-connected smooth projective surfaces. We analyze the resulting surfaces and their fundamental groups. Many of these fundamental groups are expected to be…
We construct an explicit family of finite-area, infinite-genus translation surfaces whose vertical translation flow is strongly mixing. This provides a positive answer to a question posed by Lindsey and Trevi\~no~\cite{LT}
A planar polygonal billiard $\P$ is said to have the finite blocking property if for every pair $(O,A)$ of points in $\P$ there exists a finite number of ``blocking'' points $B_1, ..., B_n$ such that every billiard trajectory from $O$ to…
Dynamical systems on an infinite translation surface with the lattice property are studied. The geodesic flow on this surface is found to be recurrent in all but countably many rational directions. Hyperbolic elements of the affine…
