Shortening all the simple closed geodesics on surfaces with boundary
We give a proof of an unpublished result of Thurston showing that given any hyperbolic metric on a surface of finite type with nonempty boundary, there exists another hyperbolic metric on the same surface for which the lengths of all simple closed geodesics have are shorter. Furthermore, we show that we can do the shortening in such a way that it is bounded below by a positive constant. This im...
متن کاملA norm on homology of surfaces and counting simple geodesics
Let S be a hyperbolic surface of finite volume, and define NS(L) to be the number of simple (that is, without self-intersections) closed geodesics on S whose length does not exceed L. This quantity arises naturally in a number of contexts, and hence it is useful to obtain some estimates on the order of growth of NS(L) as L grows large. Although a number of people have worked on this question, t...
متن کاملClosed geodesics on incomplete surfaces
We consider the problem of finding embedded closed geodesics on the two-sphere with an incomplete metric defined outside a point. Various techniques including curve shortening methods are used.
متن کاملPeriodic geodesics on translation surfaces
Let M be a compact connected oriented surface. The surface M is called a translation surface if it is equipped with a translation structure, that is, an atlas of charts such that all transition functions are translations in R2. It is assumed that the chart domains cover all surface M except for finitely many points called singular. The translation structure induces the structure of a smooth man...
متن کاملWeierstrass Points and Simple Geodesics
We investigate the set of tangent vectors at a Weierstrass point tangent to complete simple geodesics, which we think of as an innnitesimal version of the Birman Series set, showing that they are a Cantor set of Haus-dorr dimension 1. The gaps in the Cantor set are classiied in terms of the topological behavior of those geodesics tangent to the vector bounding them and deduce 3 new identities f...
