Growth Rate Of Dehn Twist Lattice Points In Teichm\"{u}ller Space
Athreya, Bufetov, Eskin and Mirzakhani [2] have shown the number of mapping class group lattice points intersecting a closed ball of radius R in Teichmüller space is asymptotic to e, where h is the…
Counting curves in hyperbolic surfaces
Let $${\Sigma}$$Σ be a hyperbolic surface. We study the set of curves on $${\Sigma}$$Σ of a given type, i.e. in the mapping class group orbit of some fixed but otherwise arbitrary $${\gamma_0}$$γ0.…
Distribution in the unit tangent bundle of the geodesics of given type
Recall that two geodesics in a negatively curved surface S are of the same type if their free homotopy classes differ by a homeomorphism of the surface. In this note we study the distribution in…
Counting arcs on hyperbolic surfaces.
We give the asymptotic growth of the number of (multi-)arcs of bounded length between boundary components on complete finite-area hyperbolic surfaces with boundary. Specifically, if $S$ has genus…
ENUMERATION OF MEANDERS AND MASUR–VEECH VOLUMES
A meander is a topological configuration of a line and a simple closed curve in the plane (or a pair of simple closed curves on the 2-sphere) intersecting transversally. Meanders can be traced back…
Mirzakhani's Curve Counting
Mirzakhani wrote two papers on counting curves of given type on a surface: one for simple curves, and one for arbitrary ones. We give a complete argument deriving Mirzakhani's result for general…
SQUARE-INTEGRABILITY OF THE MIRZAKHANI FUNCTION AND STATISTICS OF SIMPLE CLOSED GEODESICS ON HYPERBOLIC SURFACES
Given integers $g,n\geqslant 0$ satisfying $2-2g-n<0$, let ${\mathcal{M}}_{g,n}$ be the moduli space of connected, oriented, complete, finite area hyperbolic surfaces of genus $g$ with $n$ cusps. We…
A pr 2 01 8 UNIFORM BOUNDS FOR WEIL-PETERSSON CURVATURES
We find bounds for Weil-Petersson holomorphic sectional curvature, and the Weil-Petersson curvature operator in several regimes, that do not depend on the topology of the underlying surface. Among…
Uniform bounds for Weil–Petersson curvatures

A relationship between the Weil- Petersson volume and the moduli space of hyperbolic Riemann surfaces with geodesic components of lengths is established.
