On multiplicities in length spectra of semi-arithmetic hyperbolic surfaces

We show that semi-arithmetic surfaces of arithmetic dimension two which admit a modular embedding have exponential growth of mean multiplicities in their length spectrum. Prior to this work large mean multiplicities were rigorously confirmed only for the length spectra of arithmetic surfaces. We also discuss the relation of the degeneracies in the length spectrum and quantization of the Hamiltonian mechanical system on the surface.

On Salem numbers of degree 4 and arithmetic hyperbolic orbifolds

In this article, we construct an arithmetic hyperbolic $6-$orbifold $\mathcal{O}$ such that, any square-rootable Salem number of degree at most $4$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ is realized as the exponential of the length of a closed geodesic in $\mathcal{O}$. We also prove that $n=6$ is the minimal dimension among arithmetic hyperbolic orbifolds of the first type where it can be obtained. In an appendix, we establish a general relation between the discriminant of a Salem number and the determinant of a quadratic space which realizes it. In particular, for any $m,d>0$ we present a geometric proof of the existence of Salem numbers of degree $2m$ with discriminant $(-1)^{m+1}d$ in $\mathbb{Q}^{\times}/\mathbb{Q}^{\times 2}$.

Geometry and arithmetic of semi-arithmetic Fuchsian groups

Semi-arithmetic Fuchsian groups is a wide class of discrete groups of isometries of the hyperbolic plane which includes arithmetic Fuchsian groups, hyperbolic triangle groups, groups admitting a modular embedding, and others. We introduce a new geometric invariant of a semi-arithmetic group called stretch. Its definition is based on the notion of the Riemannian center of mass developed by Karcher and collaborators. We show that there exist only finitely many conjugacy classes of semi-arithmetic groups with bounded arithmetic dimension, stretch and coarea. The proof of this result uses the arithmetic Margulis lemma. We also show that when stretch is not bounded there exist infinite sequences of such groups.

Determining surfaces by short curves and applications

The goal of this work is to give new quantitative results about the distribution of semi-arithmetic hyperbolic surfaces in the moduli space of closed hyperbolic surfaces. We show that two coverings of genus $g$ of a fixed arithmetic surface $S$ are $P(\frac{1}{g})$ apart from each other with respect to Teichmuller metric, where $P$ is a polynomial depending only on $S$ whose degree is universal. We also give a super-exponential upper bound for the number of semi-arithmetic hyperbolic surfaces with bounded genus, stretch and degree of the invariant trace field, generalizing for this class similar well known bounds for arithmetic hyperbolic surfaces. In order to get these results we establish, for any closed hyperbolic surface $S$ with injectivity radius at least $s$, a parametrization of the Teichmuller space by length functions whose values on $S$ are bounded by a linear function (with constants depending only on $s$) on the logarithm of the genus of $S.$

Hyperbolic manifolds with a large number of systoles

In this article, for any $n\geq 4$ we construct a sequence of compact hyperbolic $n$-manifolds $\{M_i\}$ with number of systoles at least as $\mathrm{vol}(M_i)^{1+\frac{1}{3n(n+1)}-ε}$ for any $ε>0$. In dimension 3, the bound is improved to $\mathrm{vol}(M_i)^{\frac{4}{3}-ε}$. These results generalize previous work of Schmutz for $n=2$, and Dória-Murillo for $n=3$ to higher dimensions.

Asymptotic properties of the set of systoles of arithmetic Riemann surfaces

The purpose this article is to try to understand the mysterious coincidence between the asymptotic behavior of the volumes of the Moduli Space of closed hyperbolic surfaces of genus $g$ with respect to the Weil-Petersson metric and the asymptotic behavior of the number of arithmetic closed hyperbolic surfaces of genus $g$. If the set of arithmetic surfaces is well distributed then its image for any interesting function should be well distributed too. We investigate the distribution of the function systole. We give several results indicating that the systoles of arithmetic surfaces can not be concentrated, consequently the same holds for the set of arithmetic surfaces. The proofs are based in different techniques: combinatorics (obtaining regular graphs with any girth from results of B. Bollobas and constructions with cages and Ramanujan graphs), group theory (constructing finite index subgroups of surface groups from finite index subgroups of free groups using results of G. Baumslag) and geometric group theory (linking the geometry of graphs with the geometry of coverings of a surface).

Hyperbolic 3-manifolds with large kissing number

In this article we construct a sequence $\{M_i\}$ of non compact finite volume hyperbolic $3$-manifolds whose kissing number grows at least as $\mathrm{vol}(M_i)^{\frac{31}{27}-ε}$ for any $ε>0$. This extends a previous result due to Schmutz in dimension $2$.

Closed geodesics on semi-arithmetic Riemann surfaces

In this article, we study geometric aspects of semi-arithmetic Riemann surfaces by means of number theory and hyperbolic geometry. First, we show the existence of infinitely many semi-arithmetic Riemann surfaces of various shapes and prove that their systoles are dense in the positive real numbers. Furthermore, this leads to a construction, for each genus $g \geq 2,$ of infinite families of semi-arithmetic surfaces with pairwise distinct invariant trace fields, giving a negative answer to a conjecture of B. Jeon. Finally, for any semi-arithmetic surface we find a sequence of congruence coverings with logarithmic systolic growth and, for the special case of surfaces admitting modular embedding, we are able to exhibit explicit constants.

Height estimates for Bianchi groups

We study the action of Bianchi groups on the hyperbolic $3$-space $\mathbb{H}^3$. Given the standard fundamental domain for this action and any point in $\mathbb{H}^3,$ we show that there exists an element in the group which sends the given point into the fundamental domain such that its height is bounded by a quadratic function on the coordinates of the point. This generalizes and establishes a sharp version of a similar result of Habegger and Pila for the action of the Modular group on the hyperbolic plane. Our main theorem can be applied in the reduction theory of binary Hermitian forms with entries in the ring of integers of quadratic imaginary fields. We also show that the asymptotic behavior of the number of elements in a fixed Bianchi group with height at most $T$ is biquadratic in $T$.

Free subgroups of $3$-manifold groups

We show that any closed hyperbolic $3$-manifold $M$ has a co-final tower of covers $M_i \to M$ of degrees $n_i$ such that any subgroup of $π_1(M_i)$ generated by $k_i$ elements is free, where $k_i \ge n_i^C$ and $C = C(M) > 0$. Together with this result we show that $\log k_i \geq C_1 sys_1(M_i)$, where $sys_1(M_i)$ denotes the systole of $M_i$, thus providing a large set of new examples for a conjecture of Gromov. In the second theorem $C_1> 0$ is an absolute constant. We also consider a generalization of these results to non-compact finite volume hyperbolic $3$-manifolds.
