We give an identity involving sums of functions of lengths of simple closed geodesics, known as a McShane identity, on any non-orientable hyperbolic surface with boundary which generalises Mirzakhani's identities on orientable hyperbolic…
In this paper, we investigate the asymptotics of shortest filling closed multi-geodesics of closed hyperbolic surfaces as systole $\to 0$ or as genus $\to \infty$. We first show that for a closed hyperbolic surface $X_g$ of genus $g$, the…
We show that the shortest closed geodesic on a 2-sphere with non-negative curvature has length bounded above by three times the diameter. We prove a new isoperimetric inequality for 2-spheres with pinched curvature; this allows us to…
In this paper, we give the maximum of the numbers $n$ such that we can take $n$ simple closed geodesics without singularities that are disjoint to each other for translation surfaces in the hyperelliptic components $\mathcal{H}^{\rm…
For k>6, we determine the minimal area of a compact hyperbolic surface, and an oriented compact hyperbolic surface that can be tiled by embedded regular triangles of angle 2\pi/k. Based on this, all the cases of equality in Laszlo Fejes…
Given a hyperbolic surface $\S$, a classic result of Birman and Series states that for each $K$, all complete geodesics with at most $K$ self-intersections can only pass through a certain nowhere dense, Hausdorff dimension 1 subset of $\S$.…
We explicitly find the minima as well as the minimum points of the geodesic length functions for the family of filling (hence non-simple) closed curves, $a^2b^n$ ($n\ge 3$), on a complete one-holed hyperbolic torus in its relative…
We prove an upper bound for the number of shortest closed geodesics in a closed hyperbolic manifold of any dimension in terms of its volume and systole, generalizing a theorem of Parlier for surfaces. We also obtain bounds on the number of…
On a surface with a Finsler metric, we investigate the asymptotic growth of the number of closed geodesics of length less than $L$ which minimize length among all geodesic multicurves in the same homology class. An important class of…
We propose a definition for the length of closed geodesics in a globally hyperbolic maximal compact (GHMC) Anti-De Sitter manifold. We then prove that the number of closed geodesics of length less than $R$ grows exponentially fast with $R$…
In this paper, we obtain upper bounds on the multiplicity of Laplacian eigenvalues for closed hyperbolic surfaces in terms of the number of short closed geodesics and the genus $g$. For example, we show that if the number of short closed…
Let $(M,g)$ be a genus $m$ surface with boundary $\Gamma$ and DN map $\Lambda$. Introduce the Schottky double $2M$ of $(M,g)$ and denote by $Sys(2M)$ the length of the shortest closed geodesics in the hyperbolic metrics on $2M$. We prove…
We study topological lower bounds on the number of small Laplacian eigenvalues on hyperbolic surfaces. We show there exist constants $a,b>0$ such that when $(g+1)<a\frac{n}{\log n}$, any hyperbolic surface of genus-$g$ with $n$ cusps has at…
We prove Poisson approximation results for the bottom part of the length spectrum of a random closed hyperbolic surface of large genus. Here, a random hyperbolic surface is a surface picked at random using the Weil-Petersson volume form on…
We give sharp upper bounds on the injectivity radii of complete hyperbolic surfaces of finite area with some geodesic boundary components. The given bounds are over all such surfaces with any fixed topology; in particular, boundary lengths…
In this note we develop a tool box of non-Euclidean plane geometry methods that yield a constructive way to define in terms of closed geodesics the Goldman bracket on deformation classes of closed, directed curves. We use this construction…
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…
Let $(X,d,m)$ be a geodesic metric measure space. Consider a geodesic $\mu_{t}$ in the $L^{2}$-Wasserstein space. Then as $s$ goes to $t$ the support of $\mu_{s}$ and the support of $\mu_{t}$ have to overlap, provided an upper bound on the…
We construct geometrically infinite hyperbolic surfaces supporting horocycles with tailored recurrence properties. In particular, we obtain the first examples of non-trivial minimal horocyclic orbit closures and of infinite locally-finite…
Hyperbolic tilings are natural infinite planar graphs where each vertex has degree $q$ and each face has $p$ edges for some $\frac1p+\frac1q<\frac12$. We study the structure of shortest paths in such graphs. We show that given a set of $n$…
