The space $\mathrm{GC} (\Sigma)$ of geodesic currents on a hyperbolic surface $\Sigma$ can be considered as a completion of the set of weighted closed geodesics on $\Sigma$ when $\Sigma$ is compact, since the set of rational geodesic…

For every positive, continuous and homogeneous function $f$ on the space of currents on a compact surface $\overline{\Sigma}$, and for every compactly supported filling current $\alpha$, we compute as $L \to \infty$, the number of mapping…

In this paper, we describe the intersection between geodesic and conformal currents on closed hyperbolic three-manifolds. We use this to prove some sharp bounds which involve the Liouville entropy of a negatively curved metric, the minimal…

Subset currents on hyperbolic groups were introduced by Kapovich and Nagnibeda as a generalization of geodesic currents on hyperbolic groups, which were introduced by Bonahon and have been successfully studied in the case of the fundamental…

Strong hyperbolicity is a coarse notion of negative curvature, stronger than Gromov hyperbolicity, that includes all CAT(-k) metrics for k positive and allows the use of dynamical techniques available in negative curvature, such as…

We endow the space of projective filling geodesic currents on a closed hyperbolic surface with a natural asymmetric metric extending Thurston's asymmetric metric on Teichm\"uller space, as well as analogous metrics arising from Hitchin…

Let $\gamma_0$ be a curve on a surface $\Sigma$ of genus $g$ and with $r$ boundary components and let $\pi_1(\Sigma)\curvearrowright X$ be a discrete and cocompact action on some metric space. We study the asymptotic behavior of the number…

Every geodesic current on a hyperbolic surface has an associated dual space. If the current is a lamination, this dual embeds isometrically into a real tree. We show that, in general, the dual space is a Gromov hyperbolic metric tree-graded…

Geodesic currents on closed hyperbolic surfaces are measures on the unit tangent bundle invariant under geodesic flow and orientation reversal. Every geodesic current induces a dual function on curves via the geometric intersection pairing.…

We find a canonical decomposition of a geodesic current on a surface of finite type arising from a topological decomposition of the surface along special geodesics. We show that each component either is associated to a measured lamination…

Many natural real-valued functions of closed curves are known to extend continuously to the larger space of geodesic currents. For instance, the extension of length with respect to a fixed hyperbolic metric was a motivating example for the…

Two-dimensional topological field theories possessing a non-abelian current symmetry are constructed. The topological conformal algebra of these models is analysed. It differs from the one obtained by twisting the $N=2$ superconformal…

Let $S$ be a compact, connected, oriented surface, possibly with boundary, of negative Euler characteristic. In this article we extend Lindenstrauss-Mirzakhani's and Hamenst\"adt's classification of locally finite mapping class group…

We consider an area minimizing current $T$ in a $C^2$ submanifold $\Sigma$ of $\mathbb{R}^{m+n}$, with arbitrary integer boundary multiplicity $\partial T = Q [\![ \Gamma ]\!]$ where $\Gamma$ is a $C^2$ submanifold of $\Sigma$. We show that…

Motivated by symplectic geometry, we give a detailed account of differential forms and currents on orbifolds with corners, the pull-back and push-forward operations, and their fundamental properties. We work within the formalism where the…

We consider a geodesic flow on a compact manifold endowed with a Riemannian (or Finsler, or Lorentz) metric satisfying some generic, explicit conditions. We couple the geodesic flow with a time-dependent potential, driven by an external…

Let $\Sigma$ be a compact manifold without boundary whose first homology is nontrivial. Hodge decomposition of the incompressible Euler's equation in terms of 1-forms yields a coupled PDE-ODE system. The $L^2$-orthogonal components are a…

Given a surface $\Sigma$ equipped with a set $P$ of marked points, we consider the triangulations of $\Sigma$ with vertex set $P$. The flip-graph of $\Sigma$ whose vertices are these triangulations, and whose edges correspond to flipping…

We study the properties of geodesic currents on free groups, particularly the "intersection form" that is similar to Bonahon's notion of the intersection number between geodesic currents on hyperbolic surfaces.

Given a hyperbolic surface $\Sigma$ of genus $g$ with $r$ cusps, Mirzakhani proved that the number of closed geodesics of length at most $L$ and of a given type is asymptotic to $cL^{6g-6+2r}$ for some $c>0$. Since a closed geodesic…
