Abstract
We prove that eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on a compact hyperbolic surface delocalise in terms of a geometric parameter dependent upon the number of short closed geodesics on the surface. In particular, we show that an normalised eigenfunction restricted to a measurable subset of the surface has squared -norm , only if the set has a relatively large size -- exponential in the geometric parameter. For random surfaces with respect to the Weil-Petersson probability measure, we then show, with high probability as , that the size of the set must be at least the genus of the surface to some power dependent upon the eigenvalue and .
