Given a negatively curved compact Riemannian surface $X$, we give an explicit estimate, valid with high probability as the degree goes to infinity, of the first non-trivial eigenvalue of the Laplacian on random Riemannian covers of $X$. The…

We prove that if $X$ is a finite area non-compact hyperbolic surface, then for any $\epsilon>0$, with probability tending to one as $n\to\infty$, a uniformly random degree $n$ Riemannian cover of $X$ has no eigenvalues of the Laplacian in…
