In the present work we prove a number of surprising results about gaps between consecutive primes and arithmetic progressions in the sequence of generalized twin primes which could not have been proven without the recent fantastic…

The bounded gaps property of the prime numbers, as proven by Yitang Zhang, is considered for sequences of lengths of closed geodesics, which by the theory of Selberg zeta functions are the geometric analogue of the prime numbers. It turns…

We give two improved explicit versions of the prime number theorem for primes in arithmetic progression: the first isolating the contribution of the Siegel zero and the second completely explicit, where the improvement is for medium-sized…

The Riemannian manifold of curves with a Sobolev metric is an important and frequently studied model in the theory of shape spaces. Various numerical approaches have been proposed to compute geodesics, but so far elude a rigorous…

We consider the the intersections of the complex nodal set of the analytic continuation of an eigenfunction of the Laplacian on a real analytic surface with the complexification of a geodesic. We prove that if the geodesic flow is ergodic…

We generalize a formula on the counting of prime geodesics, due to Kuznetsov-Bykovskii, used in the work of Soundararajan-Young on the prime geodesic theorem. The method works over any number field and for any congruence subgroup. We give…

The work of Reid, Chinburg--Hamilton--Long--Reid, Prasad--Rapinchuk, and the author with Reid have demonstrated that geodesics or totally geodesic submanifolds can sometimes be used to determine the commensurability class of an arithmetic…

We study the growth of the number of conjugacy classes of infinite dihedral subgroups of lattices in PSL(2,R), generalizing earlier work of Sarnak and Bourgain-Kontorovich on the growth of the number of reciprocal geodesics on the modular…

In the 1970s, the collar theorem was proven, establishing the existence of uniform tubular neighborhoods of simple closed geodesics on compact surfaces, whose widths depend only on the lengths of the geodesics and the lower bound of the…

The Goldberg-Ostrovskii problem asks whether finite-order solutions of a linear differential equation inherit the property of completely regular growth (c.r.g.) from its coefficients. While Bergweiler's counterexample demonstrated that the…

We establish the prime geodesic theorem for the Picard orbifold $\mathrm{PSL}_{2}(\mathbb{Z}[i]) \backslash \mathbb{H}^{3}$, wherein the error term shrinks proportionally to improvements in the subconvex exponent for quadratic Dirichlet…

We develop a theory of multiplicative functions (with values inside or on the unit circle) in arithmetic progressions analogous to the well-known theory of primes in arithmetic progressions.

We propose a p-adic version of Duke's Theorem on the equidistribution of closed geodesics on modular curves. Our approach concerns quadratic fields split at p as well as a p-adic covering of the modular curve. We also prove an…

We consider a problem of P. Erdos, A. M. Odlyzko and A. Sarkozy about the representation of residue classes modulo m by products of two not too large primes. While it seems that even the Extended Riemann Hypothesis is not powerful enough to…

A formalism of arithmetic partial differential equations (PDEs) is being developed in which one considers several arithmetic differentiations at one fixed prime. In this theory solutions can be defined in algebraically closed p-adic fields.…

We provide upper bounds on the density of a symmetric generalized arithmetic progression lacking nonzero elements of the form h(n) for natural numbers n, or h(p) with p prime, for appropriate polynomials h with integer coefficients. The…

We present a discrete theory for modeling developable surfaces as quadrilateral meshes satisfying simple angle constraints. The basis of our model is a lesser known characterization of developable surfaces as manifolds that can be…

In this paper, we study the distribution of the digital reverses of prime numbers, which we call the "reversed primes". We prove the infinitude of reversed primes in any arithmetic progression satisfying straightforward necessary conditions…

We study the problem of existence of a periodic point in the boundary of an invariant domain for a surface homeomorphism. In the area-preserving setting, a complete classification is given in terms of rationality of Carath\'eordory's prime…

We give a formula for the topological pressure of the geodesic flow of a compact rank 1 manifold in terms of the growth of the number of closed hyperbolic (rank 1) geodesics. We derive an equidistribution result for these geodesics with…
