We study scalar curvature deformation for asymptotically locally hyperbolic (ALH) manifolds with nonempty compact boundary. We show that the scalar curvature map is locally surjective among either (1) the space of metrics that coincide…

The goal of this work is to give new quantitative results about the distribution of semi-arithmetic hyperbolic surfaces in the moduli space of closed hyperbolic surfaces. We show that two coverings of genus $g$ of a fixed arithmetic surface…

We use tropical and nonarchimedean geometry to study the moduli space of genus $0$ stable maps to $\mathbb{P}^1$ relative to two points. This space is exhibited as a tropical compactification in a toric variety. Moreover, the fan of this…

Let $N$ be a compact, connected, nonorientable surface of genus $g$ with $n$ boundary components with $g \geq 5$, $n \geq 0$. Let $\mathcal{T}(N)$ be the two-sided curve complex of $N$. If $\lambda :\mathcal{T}(N) \rightarrow…

This work is the extension of the results by the author in [7] and [6] for low-genus surfaces. Let $S$ be an orientable, connected surface of finite topological type, with genus $g \leq 2$, empty boundary, and complexity at least $2$; as a…

For non-negative integers $(d_n(k))_{k \ge 1}$ such that $\sum_{k \ge 1} d_n(k) = n$, we sample a bipartite planar map with $n$ faces uniformly at random amongst those which have $d_n(k)$ faces of degree $2k$ for every $k \ge 1$ and we…

Labourie and the author independently showed that a convex real projective structure on an oriented surface of genus at least 2 is equivalent to a conformal structure plus a holomorphic cubic differential U. We analyze the behavior of the…

We give a generalization of Thurston's Bounded Image Theorem for skinning maps, which applies to pared 3-manifolds with incompressible boundary that are not necessarily acylindrical. Along the way we study properties of divergent sequences…

Lattice reduction smooths the Gram-Schmidt profile, and we use majorization to describe the local swap mechanism behind that smoothing. In this language, each non-degenerate Lov\'asz swap acts as a T-transform on the log-norm profile. As a…

We determine the local geometric structure of two-dimensional metric spaces with curvature bounded above as the union of finitely many properly embedded/branched immersed Lipschitz disks. As a result, we obtain a graph structure of the…

The end compactification |\Gamma| of the locally finite graph \Gamma is the union of the graph and its ends, endowed with a suitable topology. We show that \pi_1(|\Gamma|) embeds into a nonstandard free group with hyperfinitely many…

We show that every auto-homeomorphism of the unmeasured lamination space of an orientable surface of finite type is induced by a unique extended mapping class unless the surface is a sphere with at most four punctures or a torus with at…

We construct a locally compact Hausdorff topology on the path space of a finitely aligned $k$-graph $\Lambda$. We identify the boundary-path space $\partial\Lambda$ as the spectrum of a commutative $C^*$-subalgebra $D_\Lambda$ of…

We prove that any weakly acausal curve $\Gamma$ in the boundary of Anti-de Sitter (2+1)-space is the asymptotic boundary of two spacelike $K$-surfaces, one of which is past-convex and the other future-convex, for every $K\in(-\infty,-1)$.…

We describe the natural gluing map on sutured Floer homology which is induced by the inclusion of one sutured manifold (M',\Gamma') into a larger sutured manifold (M,\Gamma), together with a contact structure on M-M'. As an application of…

If $X$ is a geodesic metric space and $x_1,x_2,x_3\in X$, a geodesic triangle $T=\{x_1,x_2,x_3\}$ is the union of the three geodesics $[x_1x_2]$, $[x_2x_3]$ and $[x_3x_1]$ in $X$. The space $X$ is $\delta$-hyperbolic (in the Gromov sense)…

We introduce a new type of boundary for proper geodesic spaces, called the Morse boundary, that is constructed with rays that identify the "hyperbolic directions" in that space. This boundary is a quasi-isometry invariant and thus produces…

We demonstrate that any self-adjoint coupling in a quantum graph vertex can be approximated by a family of magnetic Schroedinger operators on a tubular network built over the graph. If such a manifold has a boundary, Neumann conditions are…

For any cluster algebra whose underlying combinatorial data can be encoded by a bordered surface with marked points, we construct a geometric realization in terms of suitable decorated Teichmueller space of the surface. On the geometric…

We compactify the classical moduli variety of compact Riemann surfaces by attaching moduli of (metrized) graphs as boundary. The compactifications do not admit the structure of varieties and patch together to form a big connected moduli…
