We expose a connection between distance minimizing laminations and horospherical orbit closures in $\mathbb{Z}$-covers of compact hyperbolic manifolds. For surfaces, we provide novel constructions of $\mathbb{Z}$-covers with prescribed…
We construct geometrically infinite hyperbolic surfaces supporting horocycles with tailored recurrence properties. In particular, we obtain the first examples of non-trivial minimal horocyclic orbit closures and of infinite locally-finite…
We study the closure of horocycles on rank 1 nonpositively curved surfaces with finitely generated fundamental group. Each horocycle is closed or dense on a certain subset of the unit tangent bundle. In fact, we classify each half-horocycle…
Let M be a geometrically finite hyperbolic 3-manifold whose limit set is a round Sierpi\'nski gasket, i.e. M is geometrically finite and acylindrical with a compact, totally geodesic convex core boundary. In this paper, we classify orbit…
The orbit closure of any translation surface under the horocycle flow in almost any direction equals its $SL_2(\mathbb{R})$ orbit closure. This result gives rise to new characterizations of lattice surfaces in terms of the hororcycle flow.
Here we study the behaviour of the horocyclic orbit of a vector on the unit tangent bundle of a geometrically infinite surface with variable negative curvature, when the corresponding geodesic ray is almost minimizing and the injectivity…
We show that if the entropy of any closed hypersurface is close to that of a round hyper-sphere, then it is close to a round sphere in Hausdorff distance. Generalizing the result of \cite{BW1} to higher dimensions.
We track the trajectories of individual horocycles on the modular surface. Our tracking is constructive, and we thus \emph{effectively} establish topological transitivity and even line-transitivity for the horocyclic flow. We also describe…
We discuss several ways of packing a hyperbolic surface with circles (of either varying radii or all being congruent) or horocycles, and note down some observations related to their symmetries (or the absence thereof).
We study the topological dynamics of the horocycle flow $h_\mathbb{R}$ on a geometrically infinite hyperbolic surface S. Let u be a non-periodic vector for $h_\mathbb{R}$ in T^1 S. Suppose that the half-geodesic $u(\mathbb{R}^+)$ is almost…
The topological dynamics of the horocyclic flow $h_{\mathbb{R}}$ on the unit tangent bundle of a geometrically finite hyperbolic surface is well known. In particular, on such a surface, the flow $h_{\mathbb{R}}$ is minimal, or the minimal…
A closed horocycle $\mathcal{U}$ on $SL_N(\mathbb{Z}) \backslash SL_N(\mathbb{R})/SO_N({\mathbb{R}})$ has many lifts to the universal cover $SL_N(\mathbb{R})/SO_N({\mathbb{R}})$. Under some conditions on the horocycle, we give a precise…
We show that the Hausdorff dimension of any proper Teichm\"uller horocycle flow orbit closure on any $\mathrm{SL}{(2,\mathbf{R})}$-invariant subvariety of Abelian or quadratic differentials is bounded away from the dimension of the…
The topological dynamics of the horocyclic flow h_R on the unit tangent bundle of a geometrically finite hyperbolic surface is well known. In particular on such a surface the flow h_R is minimal or the minimal sets are the periodic orbits.…
On geometrically finite negatively curved surfaces, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a one-sided horocycle $(h^s u)_{s\ge 0}$ to be dense in the nonwandering set of the geodesic flow. We prove that all dense one-sided orbits…
We classify the orbit closures in the variety Nov_3 of complex, 3-dimensional Novikov algebras and obtain the Hasse diagrams for the closure ordering of the orbits. We provide invariants which are easy to compute and which enable us to…
This paper endeavors to track the trajectories of individual horocycles on \modsurf. It is far more common to study \emph{sets} of such trajectories, seeking some asymptotic behavior using an averaging process (see section \ref{previous}).…
We examine semiclassical measures for Laplace eigenfunctions on compact hyperbolic $(n+1)$-manifolds. We prove their support must contain the cosphere bundle of a compact immersed totally geodesic submanifold. Our proof adapts the argument…
This article deals with the set of closed geodesics on complete finite type hyperbolic surfaces. For any non-negative integer $k$, we consider the set of closed geodesics that self-intersect at least $k$ times, and investigate those of…
A celebrated result of Ratner from the eighties says that two horocycle flows on hyperbolic surfaces of finite area are either the same up to algebraic change of coordinates, or they have no non-trivial joinings. Recently, Mohammadi and Oh…
