Let $G$ be a finite group. In this paper we present a tool for counting the number of principle $G$-bundles over a surface. As an application, we express (non-standard) generating functions for double Hurwitz numbers as integrals over…

We derive a closed-form expression for all genus 1 Hurwitz numbers, and give a simple new graph-theoretic interpretation of Hurwitz numbers in genus 0 and 1. (Hurwitz numbers essentially count irreducible genus g covers of the sphere, with…

Under the generalized Lindel\"{o}f hypothesis, the exponent in the error term of the prime geodesic theorem for the modular surface is reduced to $\frac{5}{8}+\varepsilon $ outside a set of finite logarithmic measure.

For a compact hyperbolic surface, we define a smooth linear statistic, mimicking the number of Laplace eigenvalues in a short energy window. We study the variance of this statistic, when averaged over the moduli space $\mathcal M_g$ of all…

We compute the genus one family Gromov-Witten invariants of K3 surfaces for non-primitive classes. These calculations verify Gottsche-Yau-Zaslow formula for non-primitive classes with index two. Our approach is to use the genus two…

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…

The natural automorphism group of a translation surface is its group of translations. For finite translation surfaces of genus g > 1 the order of this group is naturally bounded in terms of g due to a Riemann-Hurwitz formula argument. In…

Let G be a connected, compact, semisimple Lie group. It is known that for a compact closed orientable surface $\Sigma$ of genus $l >1$, the order of the group $H^2(\Sigma,\pi_1(G))$ is equal to the number of connected components of the…

We study the lightlike foliations that appear on Lorentzian manifolds with weakly irreducible not irreducible holonomy algebra. We give global structure equations for the foliation that generalize the Gauss and Weingarten equations for one…

Motivated by homological mirror symmetry, this paper constructs explicit full exceptional collections for the canonical stacks associated with the series of log del Pezzo surfaces constructed by Johnson and Koll\'ar. These surfaces have…

Minimal algebraic surfaces of general type with the smallest possible invariants have geometric genus zero and K^2=1 and are usually called "numerical Godeaux surfaces". Although they have been studied by several authors, their complete…

We consider the homotopical dynamics on compact orientable surfaces of positive genus g. We establish a sufficient and necessary algebraic criterion for homotopy classes with infinitely many periodic points of maps on such surfaces in terms…

We classify homomorphisms from the braid group on $n$ strands to the pure mapping class group of a nonoriantable surface of genus $g$. For $n\ge 14$ and $g\le 2\lfloor{n/2}\rfloor+1$ every such homomorphism is either cyclic, or it maps…

We provide a complete classification of groups that can be realized as isometry groups of a translation surface $M$ with non-finitely generated fundamental group and no planar ends. Furthermore, we demonstrate that if $S$ has no…

We consider harmonic immersions in $\R^{\N}$ of compact Riemann surfaces with finitely many punctures where the harmonic coordinate functions are given as real parts of meromorphic functions. We prove that such surfaces have finite total…

We consider closed hypersurfaces smoothly immersed in hyperbolic manifolds up to homotopy and commensurability. We prove that if a closed hyperbolic manifold $M$ contains a sequence of asymptotically geodesic hypersurfaces, then $\pi_1(M)$…

We study closures of GL_2(R)-orbits on the total space of the Hodge bundle over the moduli space of curves under the assumption that they are algebraic manifolds. We show that, in the generic stratum, such manifolds are the whole stratum,…

In this paper we are interested in the stratum H^{hyp}(4) of translation surfaces, which consists of pairs (M,\omega), where M is a hyper-elliptic Riemann surface of genus 3, and \omega is a holopmorphic 1-form on M having only one zero. We…

Let $S_{g}$ be a general prime K3 surface in $P^g$ of genus $g \geq 3$ or a general double cover of $P^2$ ramified along a sextic curve for $g = 2$ and $S = S_{i,g}$ its {\it i}-th Veronese embedding. In this article we compute the corank…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group and $E$ a subset of it. Suppose that we know for all subsets $T$ of $G$ of size up to $k$ for how many $x \in G$ the translate $x+T$ is contained in $E$. This information is collectively called the $k$-deck…
