In this paper, we derive an asymptotic formula for the number of conjugacy classes of elements in a class of statistically convex-cocompact actions with contracting elements. Denote by $\mathcal C(o, n)$ (resp. $\mathcal C'(o, n)$) the set…

We reduce the classification of finite subgroups in compact Lie groups to that of quasi-simple ones, prove the number of conjugacy classes is finite and each cojugacy class is Zariski closed in mapping space, and classify "strongly…

A celebrated result of Mirzakhani states that, if $(S,m)$ is a finite area \emph{orientable} hyperbolic surface, then the number of simple closed geodesics of length less than $L$ on $(S,m)$ is asymptotically equivalent to a positive…

Let $\mathcal{C}(S_{g,p})$ denote the curve complex of the closed orientable surface of genus $g$ with $p$ punctures. Masur-Minksy and subsequently Bowditch showed that $\mathcal{C}(S_{g,p})$ is $\delta$-hyperbolic for some…

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 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…

Periodic geodesics on the modular surface correspond to periodic orbits of the geodesic flow in its unit tangent bundle $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{Z})\backslash\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{R})$. The complement of any finite number of orbits is a…

Let $n, m\ge 2$. Let $\Gamma<\text{SO}^\circ(n+1,1)$ be a Zariski dense convex cocompact subgroup and $\Lambda\subset\mathbb{S}^n$ be its limit set. Let $\rho : \Gamma \to \text{SO}^\circ(m+1,1)$ be a Zariski dense convex cocompact faithful…

We study the enumerative geometry of algebraic curves on abelian surfaces and threefolds. In the abelian surface case, the theory is parallel to the well-developed study of the reduced Gromov-Witten theory of K3 surfaces. We prove complete…

Asymptotic laws for mean multiplicities of lengths of closed geodesics in arithmetic hyperbolic three-orbifolds are derived. The sharpest results are obtained for non-compact orbifolds associated with the Bianchi groups SL(2,o) and some…

Given two automorphisms of a group $G$, one is interested in knowing whether they are conjugate in the automorphism group of $G$, or in the abstract commensurator of $G$, and how these two properties may differ. When $G$ is the fundamental…
