On local minimality of Hausdorff dimension for round limit sets

Abstract

We address a question of Canary--Taylor and Canary--Minsky--Taylor for sufficiently symmetric compact hyperbolic $3$-orbifolds with totally geodesic boundary. We give sufficient conditions on the symmetries of such an orbifold to show that, among the complete convex cocompact structures on the interior, the structure with Fuchsian ends is a critical point (respectively, a strict local minimum) for the critical exponent. We also provide an infinite family of non-rigid examples fulfilling these conditions.

The fundamental quandle of ribbon concordances

We describe the fundamental quandle of a properly embedded surface $Σ$ (possibly with boundary) in $\mathbb{R}^{3}\times I$ and derive its presentation in terms of its motion picture. Our study is based on the topological definition of the fundamental quandle. We prove that a ribbon concordance $C$ from a classical knot $K_1$ to a classical knot $K_0$ gives rise to a quandle monomorphism $Q(K_0)\hookrightarrow Q(C)$ and a quandle epimorphism $Q(K_1)\twoheadrightarrow Q(C)$.

An embedding of spherical quandles into Lie groups

We construct smooth embeddings of spherical quandles into conjugation quandles of Lie groups, where the ambient Lie groups can be chosen to be orthogonal, Spin, or Pin groups. Moreover, in dimensions $1$ and $3$, we compare our embeddings with those due to Bergman and Akita.

Minima of geodesic length functions for non-uniform filling systems

Kerckhoff proved that the geodesic length function $\ell_Ω$ of a filling $Ω$ on $S_g$ attains a unique minimum in Teichmüller space. Recent work of Ernesto Girondo et al. computed these minima for uniform fillings using the algebraic machinery of dessins d'enfants and Grothendieck-Belyi surfaces. We present an elementary optimization approach for $4$-regular topological uniform fillings, bypassing this framework. Furthermore, we analyze two special classes of non-uniform $4$-regular fillings using fat graphs and optimization techniques. We explicitly compute their minima and prove that in both classes, the minimum of these length functions is attained at a triangle surface.
