Singular and sectional hyperbolic sets are the objects of the extension of the classical Smale Hyperbolic Theory to flows having invariant sets with singularities accumulated by regular orbits within the set. It is by now well-known that…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a finite, combinatorial graph. We define a notion of curvature on the vertices $V$ via the inverse of the resistance distance matrix. We prove that this notion of curvature has a number of desirable properties. Graphs with…

An expansion is developed for the Weil-Petersson Riemann curvature tensor in the thin region of the Teichm\"{u}ller and moduli spaces. The tensor is evaluated on the gradients of geodesic-lengths for disjoint geodesics. A precise lower…

In this paper we consider the isoptic curves on the 2-dimensional geometries of constant curvature $\bE^2,~\bH^2,~\cE^2$. The topic is widely investigated in the Euclidean plane $\bE^2$ see for example \cite{CMM91} and \cite{Wi} and the…

In the first part of this work we explore the geometry of infinite type surfaces and the relationship between its convex core and space of ends. In particular, we show that a geodesically complete hyperbolic surface is made up of its convex…

By giving an homology basis well adapted to the symmetries of Klein's curve, presented as a plane curve, we derive a new expression for its period matrix. This is explicitly related to the hyperbolic model and results of Rauch and Lewittes.

In this paper we examine the relationship between the length spectrum and the geometric genus spectrum of an arithmetic hyperbolic 3-orbifold M. In particular we analyze the extent to which the geometry of M is determined by the closed…

We characterize which cobounded quasigeodesics in the Teichmueller space T of a closed surface are at bounded distance from a geodesic. More generally, given a cobounded lipschitz path gamma in T, we show that gamma is a quasigeodesic with…

Any three-dimensional Riemannian metric can be locally obtained by deforming a constant curvature metric along one direction. The general interest of this result, both in geometry and physics, and related open problems are stressed.

Distance geometry is the study of the arrangements of points in space using only the mutual distances between them. The basic idea in this letter is to use distance geometry for thermodynamics studies of small clusters in the microcanonical…
