Skeleton is a new notion designed for constructing space-filling curves of self-similar sets. It is shown in [Dai, Rao and Zhang, Space-filling curves of self-similar sets (II): Edge-to-trail substitution rule,https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6544/ab1275] that for a connected self-similar set, space-filling curves can be c…

We study filling sets of simple closed curves on punctured surfaces. In particular we study lower bounds on the cardinality of sets of curves that fill and that pairwise intersect at most k times on surfaces with given genus and number of punctures. We are able to establish orders of growth for even k and show that for…

The article finds conditions for separating filling pairs on surfaces and constructs a Morse function.

The paper constructs minimal coherent filling pairs on surfaces.

We show that the asymptotic growth rate for the minimal cardinality of a set of simple closed curves on a closed surface of genus $g$ which fill and pairwise intersect at most $K\ge 1$ times is $2\sqrt{g}/\sqrt{K}$ as $g \to \infty$ . We then bound from below the cardinality of a filling set of systoles by $g/\log(g)$.…

Let $F_g$ denote a closed oriented surface of genus $g$. A set of simple closed curves is called a filling of $F_g$ if its complement is a disjoint union of discs. The mapping class group $\text{Mod}(F_g)$ of genus $g$ acts on the set of fillings of $F_g$. The union of the curves in a filling forms a graph on the surfa…

The paper studies properties of optimal metrics associated to curves on surfaces.

This paper is about the geometry of flip-graphs associated to triangulations of surfaces. More precisely, we consider a topological surface with a privileged boundary curve and study the spaces of its triangulations with n vertices on the boundary curve. The surfaces we consider topologically fill this boundary curve s…

Study finds minimum lengths of curves on a one-holed torus.

T-curves are piecewise linear curves which have been used with success since the beginning of the 1990's to construct new real algebraic curves with prescribed topology mainly on the real projective plane. In fact T-curves can be used on any real projective toric surface. We generalize here the construction of the latt…

The study examines dynamics on SU(2)-representation varieties for surfaces and non-orientable surfaces.

Let $Σ$ be a compact, orientable surface of negative Euler characteristic, and let $h$ be a complete hyperbolic metric on $Σ$. A geodesic curve $γ$ in $Σ$ is filling, if it cuts the surface into topological disks and annuli. We propose an efficient algorithm for deciding whether a geodesic curve, represented as a word …

The study finds an upper limit for the number of minimal origami pairs on a surface.

Estimates the number of closed curves on surfaces with power-saving error terms.

The homological and homotopical Dehn functions are different ways of measuring the difficulty of filling a closed curve inside a group or a space. The homological Dehn function measures fillings of cycles by chains, while the homotopical Dehn function measures fillings of curves by disks. Since the two definitions invo…

We prove an explicit, quantitative criterion that ensures the Heegaard surfaces in Dehn fillings behave "as expected." Given a cusped hyperbolic manifold X, and a Dehn filling whose meridian and longitude curves are longer than 2pi(2g-1), we show that every genus g Heegaard splitting of the filled manifold is isotopic …

New method fills cluster seeds with exact Lagrangian structures.

In this short note, we construct a minimally intersecting pair of simple closed curves that fill a genus 2 surface with an odd, greater than 3, number of punctures. This finishes the determination of minimally intersecting filling pairs for all surfaces completing the work of Aougab-Huang and Aougab-Taylor.

This note is about a type of quantitative density of closed geodesics on closed hyperbolic surfaces. The main results are upper bounds on the length of the shortest closed geodesic that $\varepsilon$-fills the surface.

This paper classifies symplectic and Stein fillings of contact 3-manifolds with spinal open book decompositions.

A pair of distinct free homotopy classes of closed curves in an orientable surface $F$ with negative Euler characteristic is said to be length equivalent if for any hyperbolic structure on $F$, the length of the geodesic representative of one class is equal to the length of the geodesic representative of the other clas…

Let $F_g$ be a closed orientable surface of genus $g$. A set $Ω= \{ γ_1, \dots, γ_s\}$ of pairwise non-homotopic simple closed curves on $F_g$ is called a \emph{filling system} or simply a \emph{filling} of $F_g$, if $F_g\setminus Ω$ is a union of $b$ topological discs for some $b\geq 1$. A filling system is called \em…

We construct infinitely many Legendrian links in the standard contact $\mathbb{R}^3$ with arbitrarily many topologically distinct Lagrangian fillings. The construction is used to find links in $S^3$ that bound topologically distinct pieces of algebraic curves in $B^4 \subset \mathbb{C}^2$, is applied to find contact 3-…

Worldsheet skein D-module for Hopf link conormal uniquely determines partition functions.

Let $S_{g}$ denote the closed orientable surface of genus $g$. We construct exponentially many mapping class group orbits of pairs of simple closed curves which fill $S_{g}$ and intersect minimally, by showing that such orbits are in correspondence with the solutions of a certain permutation equation in the symmetric g…

A Dehn sphere in a closed 3-manifold M is a 2-sphere immersed in M with only double curve and triple point singularities. The Dehn sphere S fills M if it defines a cell-decomposition of M. The inverse image in S^{2} of the double curves of S is the Johansson diagram of S and if S fills M it is possible to reconstruct M…

We show that, for any given 3-manifold M, there are at most finitely many hyperbolic knots K in the 3-sphere and fractions p/q (with q > 22), such that M is obtained by p/q surgery along K. This is a corollary of the following result. If M is obtained by Dehn filling the cusps of a hyperbolic 3-manifold X, where each f…

This paper classifies and determines the length of the shortest filling pairs on a specific type of surface.

The study examines translation lengths of pseudo-Anosov maps on curve graphs.

We give some new methods, based on Lipschitz extension theorems, for bounding filling invariants of subsets of nonpositively curved spaces. We apply our methods to find sharp bounds on higher-order Dehn functions of Sol_{2n+1}, horospheres in euclidean buildings, Hilbert modular groups, and certain S-arithmetic groups.

Unique CaTherine wheel found for LQG geodesic tree.

Given a closed hyperbolic 3-manifold M with a quasigeodesic flow we construct a π_1-equivariant sphere-filling curve in the boundary of hyperbolic space. Specifically, we show that any complete transversal P to the lifted flow on H^3 has a natural compactification as a closed disc that inherits a π_1 action. The embedd…

Origami edge-paths connect coherent curves on surfaces.

Let $S$ be a surface of negative Euler characteristic and consider a finite filling collection $Γ$ of closed curves on $S$ in minimal position. An observation of Foulon and Hasselblatt shows that $PT(S) \setminus \hatΓ$ is a finite-volume hyperbolic 3-manifold, where $PT(S)$ is the projectivized tangent bundle and $\ha…
