The length of the shortest closed geodesic in a hyperbolic surface $X$ is called the systole of $X.$ When $X$ is an $n$-times punctured sphere $\hat{ \mathbb{C}} \setminus A$ where $A \subset \hat{\mathbb{C}}$ is a finite set of cardinality…
The main goal of this note is to show that the study of closed hyperbolic surfaces with maximum length systole is in fact the study of surfaces with maximum length homological systole. The same result is shown to be true for once-punctured…
We prove that, among the polygons in a punctured disc with fixed angles, the perimeter is minimized by the polygon with an inscribed horocycle centered at the puncture. We generalize this to a disc with a cone point and to an annulus with a…
We determine the maximal number of systoles among all spheres with $n$ punctures endowed with a complete Riemannian metric of finite area.
We compute the number of systoles, the shortest simple closed geodesics and 2-systoles, the second shortest simple closed geodesics on hyperbolic surfaces homeomorphic to once-punctured torus and four-punctured sphere.
We give the asymptotic growth of the number of (multi-)arcs of bounded length between boundary components on complete finite-area hyperbolic surfaces with boundary. Specifically, if $S$ has genus $g$, $n$ boundary components and $p$…
We show that the length $R$ of a systole of a closed hyperbolic $n$-manifold $(n \geq 3)$ admitting a triangulation by $t$ $n$-simplices can be bounded below by a function of $n$ and $t$, namely \[ R \geq \frac{1}{2^{(nt)^{O(n^4t)} }} .\]…
We prove that the extremal length systole of the cube punctured at its vertices is realized by the 12 curves surrounding its edges and give a characterization of the corresponding quadratic differentials, allowing us to estimate its value…
In this paper we study the systoles of arithmetic hyperbolic 2- and 3-manifolds. Our first result is the construction of infinitely many arithmetic hyperbolic 2- and 3-manifolds which are pairwise noncommensurable, all have the same…
We study the systole of a random surface, where by a random surface we mean a surface constructed by randomly gluing together an even number of triangles. We study two types of metrics on these surfaces, the first one coming from using…
We study the number and the length of systoles on complete finite area orientable hyperbolic surfaces. In particular, we prove upper bounds on the number of systoles that a surface can have (the so-called kissing number for hyperbolic…
We apply a study of orders in quaternion algebras, to the differential geometry of Riemann surfaces. The least length of a closed geodesic on a hyperbolic surface is called its systole, and denoted syspi_1. P. Buser and P. Sarnak…
We are interested in the maximum value achieved by the systole function over all complete finite area hyperbolic surfaces of a given signature $(g,n)$. This maximum is shown to be strictly increasing in terms of the number of cusps for…
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…
We give asymptotic bounds for the optimal Lipschitz constants for the systole map from the Teichmuller space to the curve complex. We give similar results to those known for closed surfaces in the cases when the genus is fixed or the ratio…
We present a method for computing upper bounds on the systolic length of certain Riemann surfaces uniformized by congruence subgroups of hyperbolic triangle groups, admitting congruence Hurwitz curves as a special case. The uniformizing…
We give the formula for the maximal systole of the surface admits the largest $S^3$-extendable abelian group symmetry. The result we get is $2\mathrm{arccosh} K$. Here \begin{eqnarray*} K &=& \sqrt[3]{\frac{1}{216}L^3 +\frac{1}{8} L^2 +…
We establish sharp universal upper bounds on the length of the shortest closed geodesic on a punctured sphere with three or four ends endowed with a complete Riemannian metric of finite area. These sharp curvature-free upper bounds are…
This article is dedicated to prove Buser's conjecture about Bers' constants for spheres with cusps (or marked points) and for hyperelliptic surfaces. More specifically, our main theorem states that any hyperbolic sphere with $n$ cusps has a…
We define and prove the existence of unique solutions of an asymptotic Plateau problem for spacelike maximal surfaces in the pseudo-hyperbolic space of signature (2, n): the boundary data is given by loops on the boundary at infinity of the…
