In this paper, we use the conjugate surface construction to prove the existence of certain non-periodic symmetric immersed minimal surfaces. These surfaces have finite total curvature and embedded catenoid ends, and they have positive genus…
We consider translation surfaces in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space which are of coordinate finite type with respect to the third fundamental form $III$, i.e. their position vector $x$ satisfies the relation $\Delta^{III}x = \Lambda x$,…
We study infinite translation surfaces which are Z-covers of compact translation surfaces. We obtain conditions ensuring that such surfaces have Veech groups which are Fuchsian of the first kind and give a necessary and sufficient condition…
We show that every $C^2$ minimal action of Thompson group $T$ on the circle is ergodic with respect to the Lebesgue measure. If such action is not minimal then the Lebesgue measure of the exceptional minimal set is zero.
At the beggining of the 80's, H.Masur and W.Veech started the study of generic properties of interval exchange transformations proving that almost every such transformation is uniquely ergodic. About the same time, S.Novikov's school and…
We study the horocycle flow on the stratum of translation surfaces $\mathcal{H}(2)$. We show that there is a sequence of horocycle ergodic measures, each supported on a periodic horocycle orbit, which weakly converges to an invariant, but…
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…
In this paper, we give the maximum of the numbers $n$ such that we can take $n$ simple closed geodesics without singularities that are disjoint to each other for translation surfaces in the hyperelliptic components $\mathcal{H}^{\rm…
An ant-like observer confined to a two-dimensional surface traversed by stripes would wonder whether this striped landscape could be devised in such a way as to appear to be the same wherever they go. Differently stated, this is the problem…
In this article, we pay attention to transitive dynamical systems having the shadowing property and the entropy functions are upper semicontinuous. As for these dynamical systems, when we consider ergodic optimization restricted on the…
This text is an introduction to the author's cohomological approach, based on Hodge theory, to (effective) unique ergodicity and weak mixing of translation flows. Compared to earlier expositions, it emphasizes the analogy between the two…
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…
We introduce a "tremor" deformation on strata of translation surfaces. Using it, we give new examples of behaviors of horocycle flow orbits in strata of translation surfaces. In the genus two stratum with two singular points, we find orbits…
We prove a general fusion theorem for complete orientable minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with finite total curvature. As a consequence, complete orientable minimal surfaces of weak finite total curvature with exotic geometry are…
A translation surface is a surface formed by identifying edges of a collection of polygons in the complex plane that are parallel and of equal length using only translations. We determined that the same circle packing can be realized on…
We prove that the Gauss curvature and the curvature of the normal connection of any minimal surface in the four dimensional Euclidean space satisfy an inequality, which generates two classes of minimal surfaces: minimal surfaces of general…
Masur's divergence states that the horizontal foliation of translation surfaces is uniquely ergodic if the geodesic flow is recurrent on the moduli space. This established a relationship between geometrical properties of foliations and the…
A translation surface is given by polygons in the plane, with sides identified by translations to create a closed Riemann surface with a flat structure away from finitely many singular points. Understanding geodesic flow on a surface…
This paper studies Heegaard splittings of surface bundles via the curve complex of the fibre. The translation distance of the monodromy is the smallest distance it moves any vertex of the curve complex. We prove that the translation…
We prove that any ergodic $SL_2(R)$-invariant probability measure on a stratum of translation surfaces satisfies strong regularity: the measure of the set of surfaces with two non-parallel saddle connections of length at most $\epsilon_1,…
