Counting Formulae for Square-tiled Surfaces in Genus Two
Abstract
Square-tiled surfaces can be classified by their number of squares and their cylinder diagrams (also called realizable separatrix diagrams). For the case of squares and two cone points with angle each, we set up and parametrize the classification into four diagrams. Our main result is to provide formulae for enumeration of square-tiled surfaces in these four diagrams, completing the detailed count for genus two. The formulae are in terms of various well-studied arithmetic functions, enabling us to give asymptotics for each diagram using a new calculation for additive convolutions of divisor functions that was recently derived by the author and collaborators. Interestingly, two of the four cylinder diagrams occur with asymptotic density 1/4, but the other diagrams occur with different (and irrational) densities.
