We prove the existence of spectral gaps of Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operators on loop spaces over a class of Riemannian manifolds which include hyperbolic spaces. This is an alternative proof and an extension of a result in Chen-Li-Wu in J.…

We analyze a class of quantum spin models defined on half-spaces in the $d$-dimensional hypercubic lattice bounded by a hyperplane with inward unit normal vector $m\in\mathbb{R}^d$. The family of models was previously introduced as the…

We study the $L^2$ spectral gap of a large system of strongly coupled diffusions on unbounded state space and subject to a double-well potential. This system can be seen as a spatially discrete approximation of the stochastic Allen-Cahn…

In this paper we obtain a bound on the number of isometry classes of finite area hyperbolic surfaces which are length isospectral to a given surface depending only on the topological type of the surface and the length of the shortest closed…

We apply topological methods to study the smallest non-zero number $\lambda_1$ in the spectrum of the Laplacian on finite area hyperbolic surfaces. For closed hyperbolic surfaces of genus two we show that the set $\{S \in {\mathcal{M}_2}:…

We study random covers of a closed hyperbolic surface $\Sigma$, subject to the condition that, for $k\geq 2$, the fundamental group is isomorphic to the free group $F_k$. We show that asymptotically they distribute according to a specific…

Let $M$ be a closed hyperbolic $3$-manifold. A homotopy class $[S]$ of surfaces in $M$ is filling if any representative cuts $M$ into components contractible in $M$. We prove that there exist $\epsilon_0, g_0>0$ such that every homotopy…

Our main result is that for all sufficiently large $x_0>0$, the set of commensurability classes of arithmetic hyperbolic 2- or 3-orbifolds with fixed invariant trace field $k$ and systole bounded below by $x_0$ has density one within the…

In this article we study the spectrum of totally geodesic surfaces of a finite volume hyperbolic 3-manifold. We show that for arithmetic hyperbolic 3-manifolds that contain a totally geodesic surface, this spectrum determines the…

Polar slice sampling, a Markov chain construction for approximate sampling, performs, under suitable assumptions on the target and initial distribution, provably independent of the state space dimension. We extend the aforementioned result…

We describe a method for constraining Laplacian and Dirac spectra of two dimensional compact orientable hyperbolic spin manifolds and orbifolds. The key ingredient is an infinite family of identities satisfied by the spectra. These spectral…

We study large uniform random maps with one face whose genus grows linearly with the number of edges. They can be seen as a model of discrete hyperbolic geometry. In the past, several of these hyperbolic geometric features have been…

Let $(M^{n},g)$ be a compact Riemannian manifold with $Ric\geq-(n-1) $. It is well known that the bottom of spectrum $\lambda_{0}$ of its unverversal covering satisfies $\lambda_{0}\leq(n-1) ^{2}/4 $. We prove that equality holds iff $M$ is…
