Proves existence of circle patterns on surfaces with cusps.

Study geodesics entering a fixed cusp neighborhood multiple times.

We determine the number of cusps of minimal Picard modular surfaces. The proof also counts cusps of other Picard modular surfaces of arithmetic interest. Consequently, for each N > 0 there are finitely many commensurability classes of nonuniform arithmetic lattices in SU(2, 1) that contain an N-cusped surface. We also …

Graded identities for hyperbolic surfaces with cusps and cone points.

Motivated by classical theorems on minimal surface theory in compact hyperbolic three-manifolds, we investigate the questions of existence and deformations for least area minimal surfaces in complete noncompact hyperbolic three-manifold of finite volume. We prove any closed immersed incompressible surface can be deform…

Motivated by a question of Hirzebruch on the possible topological types of cusp cross-sections of Hilbert modular varieties, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for a manifold M to be diffeomorphic to a cusp cross-section of a Hilbert modular variety. Specialized to Hilbert modular surfaces, this proves that e…

We derive a sharp cusp count for finite volume complex hyperbolic surfaces which admit smooth toroidal compactifications. We use this result, and the techniques developed in [DiC12], to study the geometry of cusped complex hyperbolic surfaces and their compactifications.

Currents on cusped hyperbolic surfaces have a denseness property similar to compact surfaces.

Study bounds on cusp volumes of alternating knots on surfaces.

Continuous process closes cusps in complex algebraic surfaces.

Several new combinatorial descriptions of closed 4-manifolds have recently been introduced in the study of smooth maps from 4-manifolds to surfaces. These descriptions consist of simple closed curves in a closed, orientable surface and these curves appear as so called vanishing sets of corresponding maps. In the presen…

The study finds arbitrarily small spectral gaps for random hyperbolic surfaces with many cusps.

For a Riemann surface with cusps we define a theta function using the eigenvalues of the Laplacian and the singularities of the scattering determinant. We provide its meromorphic continuation and discuss its singularities.

Counts arcs in surfaces, proving convergence of geodesic currents.

Study on Dirac operator spectrum on shrinking surfaces with cusps.

We consider an inverse problem associated with some 2-dimensional non-compact surfaces with conical singularities, cusps and regular ends. Our motivating example is a Riemann surface $\mathcal M = Γ\backslash{\bf H}^2$ associated with a Fuchsian group of the 1st kind $Γ$ containing parabolic elements. $\mathcal M$ is t…

Proves existence and uniqueness of metrics with negative curvature and singularities on compact surfaces.

Cooper and Long generalised Epstein and Penner's Euclidean cell decomposition of cusped hyperbolic manifolds of finite volume to non-compact strictly convex projective manifolds of finite volume. We show that Weeks' algorithm to compute this decomposition for a hyperbolic surface generalises to strictly convex projecti…

Infinite volume moduli spaces of hyperbolic surfaces are redefined with exponential forms.

We extend the notion of what it means for a complete Ricci flow to have a given initial metric, and consider the resulting well-posedness issues that arise in the 2D case. On one hand we construct examples of nonuniqueness by showing that surfaces with cusps can evolve either by keeping the cusps or by contracting them…

We study the behavior of the Quillen metric for the family of Riemann surfaces with cusps when the additional cusps are created by degeneration. More precisely, in our previous paper, we've seen that the renormalization of the Quillen metric associated with a family of Riemann surfaces with cusps extends continuously o…

New method calculates winding of geodesics on surfaces.

For $0<k<1$, a finite-type $k$-surface in $3$-dimensional hyperbolic space is a complete, immersed surface of finite area and of constant extrinsic curvature equal to $k$. In [32], we showed that such surfaces have finite genus and finitely many cusp-like ends. Each of these cusps is asymptotic to an immersed cylinder …

Study bounds on harmonic forms in hyperbolic 3-manifolds using Thurston norm and minimal surfaces.

By a Morse function on a compact manifold with boundary we mean a real-valued function without critical points near the boundary such that its critical points as well as the critical points of its restriction to the boundary are all non-degenerate. For such Morse functions, Saeki and Yamamoto have previously defined a …

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 minimal length. The main result is that, if the surface has at least one cusp, their…

Study of large-$n$ asymptotics for Weil-Petersson volumes of hyperbolic surfaces with cusps.

Study Bergman kernels on complex hyperbolic cusps, generalizing previous results.

We introduce a notion of relative isospectrality for surfaces with boundary having possibly non-compact ends either conformally compact or asymptotic to cusps. We obtain a compactness result for such families via a conformal surgery that allows us to reduce to the case of surfaces hyperbolic near infinity recently stud…

The study provides polynomial bounds for essential surfaces in various 3-manifolds.

This article is dedicated to prove Buser's conjecture about Bers' constants for spheres with cusps (or marked points) and for hyperelliptic surfaces. More specifically, our main theorem states that any hyperbolic sphere with $n$ cusps has a pants decomposition with all of its geodesics of length bounded by a constant r…

We consider the normalized Ricci flow $\del_t g = (ρ- R)g$ with initial condition a complete metric $g_0$ on an open surface $M$ where $M$ is conformal to a punctured compact Riemann surface and $g_0$ has ends which are asymptotic to hyperbolic cusps. We prove that when $χ(M) < 0$ and $ρ< 0$, the flow $g(t)$ converges …

The paper studies helicoidal surfaces of non-lightlike frontals in Lorentz-Minkowski 3-space.

We extend Y.Eliashberg's $h$-principle to smooth maps of surfaces which are allowed to have cusp singularities, as well as folds. More precisely, we prove a necessary and sufficient condition for a given map of surfaces to be homotopic to one with given loci of folds and cusps. Then we use these results to obtain a nec…

The conjugate locus of a point $p$ in a surface $\mathcal{S}$ will have a certain number of cusps. As the point $p$ is moved in the surface the conjugate locus may spontaneously gain or lose cusps. In this paper we explain this `bifurcation' in terms of the vanishing of higher derivatives of the exponential map; we der…
