We prove, for any $n$, that there is a closed connected orientable surface $S$ so that the hyperbolic space ${ℍ}^n$ almost-isometrically embeds into the Teichmüller space of $S$, with quasi-convex image lying in the thick part. As a consequence, ${ℍ}^n$ quasi-isometrically embeds in the curve complex of $S$.

A hyperideal polyhedron is a non-compact polyhedron in the hyperbolic $3$-space ${ℍ}^3$ which, in the projective model for ${ℍ}^3\subset {\mathrm{ℝ\mathbb{P}}}^3$, is just the intersection of ${ℍ}^3$ with a projective polyhedron whose vertices are all outside ${ℍ}^3$ and whose edges all meet ${ℍ}^3$. We classify hyperideal polyhedra, up to isometries of ${ℍ}^3$, in terms of their combinatorial type and of their dihedral angles.

We prove the central limit theorem for the multisequence ${\sum }_{1\le n₁\le N₁}\cdots {\sum }_{1\le n_d\le N_d}{a}_{n₁,...,n_d}cos(⟨2\pi m,A{₁}^{n₁}...A_d^{n_d}x⟩)$ where $m\in {\mathbb{Z}}^s$, $a_{n₁,...,n_d}$ are reals, $A₁,...,A_d$ are partially hyperbolic commuting s × s matrices, and x is a uniformly distributed random variable in ${[0,1]}^s$. The main tool is the S-unit theorem.

We consider the following Darboux problem for the functional differential equation $\partial ²u/\partial x\partial y(x,y)=f(x,y,u_{(x,y)},\partial u/\partial x(x,y),\partial u/\partial y(x,y))$ a.e. in [0,a]×[0,b], u(x,y) = ψ(x,y) on [-a₀,a]×[-b₀,b]$0,a\left]\times \right(0,b],$where the function $u_{(x,y)}:[-a₀,0]\times [-b₀,0]\to {ℝ}^k$ is defined by $u_{(x,y)}(s,t)=u(s+x,t+y)$ for (s,t) ∈ [-a₀,0]×[-b₀,0]. We prove a theorem on existence of the Carathéodory solutions of the above problem.

In his seminal paper on arithmetic surfaces Faltings introduced a new invariant associated to compact Riemann surfaces $X$, nowadays called Faltings’s delta function and here denoted by ${\delta }_{\mathrm{Fal}}\left(X\right)$. For a given compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g_X=g$, the invariant ${\delta }_{\mathrm{Fal}}\left(X\right)$ is roughly given as minus the logarithm of the distance with respect to the Weil-Petersson metric of the point in the moduli space ${ℳ}_g$ of genus $g$ curves determined by $X$ to its boundary $\partial {ℳ}_g$. In this paper we begin by revisiting a formula derived...

We consider a large class of non compact hyperbolic manifolds $M={ℍ}^n/\Gamma$ with cusps and we prove that the winding process $\left(Y_t\right)$ generated by a closed $1$-form supported on a neighborhood of a cusp $𝒞$, satisfies a limit theorem, with an asymptotic stable law and a renormalising factor depending only on the rank of the cusp $𝒞$ and the Poincaré exponent $\delta$ of $\Gamma$. No assumption on the value of $\delta$ is required and this theorem generalises previous results due to Y. Guivarc’h, Y. Le Jan, J. Franchi and N. Enriquez. ...

Let $f$ be a dominant rational map of ${\mathbb{P}}^k$ such that there exists $s\<k$ with ${\lambda }_s\left(f\right)\>{\lambda }_l\left(f\right)$ for all $l$. Under mild hypotheses, we show that, for $A$ outside a pluripolar set of $\mathrm{Aut}\left({\mathbb{P}}^k\right)$, the map $f\circ A$ admits a hyperbolic measure of maximal entropy $log{\lambda }_s\left(f\right)$ with explicit bounds on the Lyapunov exponents. In particular, the result is true for polynomial maps hence for the homogeneous extension of $f$ to ${\mathbb{P}}^{k+1}$. This provides many examples where non uniform hyperbolic dynamics is established. One of the key tools is to approximate...

We consider the systems of hyperbolic equations ⎧$uₜₜ=\Delta \left(a(t,x)u\right)+\Delta \left(b(t,x)v\right)+{h(t,x)\left|v\right|}^p$, t > 0, $x\in {ℝ}^N$, (S1) ⎨ ⎩$vₜₜ=\Delta \left(c(t,x)v\right)+{k(t,x)\left|u\right|}^q$, t > 0, $x\in {ℝ}^N$ ⎧$uₜₜ=\Delta \left(a(t,x)u\right)+{h(t,x)\left|v\right|}^p$, t > 0, $x\in {ℝ}^N$, (S2) ⎨ ⎩$vₜₜ=\Delta \left(c(t,x)v\right)+{l(t,x)\left|v\right|}^m+k(t,x){\left|u\right|}^q$, t > 0, $x\in {ℝ}^N$, (S3) ⎧$uₜₜ=\Delta \left(a(t,x)u\right)+\Delta \left(b(t,x)v\right)+{h(t,x)\left|u\right|}^p$, t > 0, $x\in {ℝ}^N$, ⎨ ⎩$vₜₜ=\Delta \left(c(t,x)v\right)+{k(t,x)\left|v\right|}^q$, t > 0, $x\in {ℝ}^N$, in $(0,\infty )\times {ℝ}^N$ with u(0,x) = u₀(x), v(0,x) = v₀(x), uₜ(0,x) = u₁(x), vₜ(0,x) = v₁(x). We show that, in each case, there exists a bound B on N such that for 1 ≤ N ≤ B solutions to the systems blow up in finite time.

Let $Y$ be a hyperbolic surface and let $\phi$ be a Laplacian eigenfunction having eigenvalue $-1/4-{\tau }^2$ with $\tau >0$. Let $N\left(\phi \right)$ be the set of nodal lines of $\phi$. For a fixed analytic curve $\gamma$ of finite length, we study the number of intersections between $N\left(\phi \right)$ and $\gamma$ in terms of $\tau$. When $Y$ is compact and $\gamma$ a geodesic circle, or when $Y$ has finite volume and $\gamma$ is a closed horocycle, we prove that $\gamma$ is “good” in the sense of [TZ]. As a result, we obtain that the number of intersections between $N\left(\phi \right)$ and $\gamma$ is $O\left(\tau \right)$. This bound is...

Let $X$ be a connected closed manifold and $f$ a self-map on $X$. We say that $f$ is almost quasi-unipotent if every eigenvalue $\lambda$ of the map $f_{*k}$ (the induced map on the $k$-th homology group of $X$) which is neither a root of unity, nor a zero, satisfies that the sum of the multiplicities of $\lambda$ as eigenvalue of all the maps $f_{*k}$ with $k$ odd is equal to the sum of the multiplicities of $\lambda$ as eigenvalue of all the maps $f_{*k}$ with $k$ even. We prove that if $f$ is $C^1$ having finitely many periodic points all of them...

We consider “nonconventional” averaging setup in the form $\frac{\mathrm{d}{X}^{\epsilon }\left(t\right)}{\mathrm{d}t}=\epsilon B(X^{\epsilon }\left(t\right)$, $𝛯\left(q_1\left(t\right)\right),𝛯\left(q_2\left(t\right)\right),...,𝛯\left(q_{\ell }\left(t\right)\right))$ where $𝛯\left(t\right)$, $t\ge 0$ is either a stochastic process or a dynamical system with sufficiently fast mixing while $q_j\left(t\right)={\alpha }_{j}t$, ${\alpha }_{1}lt;{\alpha }_{2}lt;\cdots lt;{\alpha }_k$ and $q_j$, $j=k+1,...,\ell$ grow faster than linearly. We show that the properly normalized error term in the “nonconventional” averaging principle is asymptotically Gaussian.

We consider the Darboux problem for a functional differential equation: $\left(\partial ²u\right)/\left(\partial x\partial y\right)(x,y)=f(x,y,u_{(x,y)},u(x,y),\partial u/\partial x(x,y),\partial u/\partial y(x,y))$ a.e. in [0,a]×[0,b], u(x,y) = ψ(x,y) on [-a₀,a]×[-b₀,b]∖(0,a]×(0,b], where the function $u_{(x,y)}:[-a₀,0]\times [-b₀,0]\to {ℝ}^k$ is defined by $u_{(x,y)}(s,t)=u(s+x,t+y)$ for (s,t) ∈ [-a₀,0]×[-b₀,0]. We give a few theorems about weak and strong inequalities for this problem. We also discuss the case where the right-hand side of the differential equation is linear.

Let $(𝒪,\Sigma ,F_{\infty })$ be an arithmetic ring of Krull dimension at most 1, $𝒮=\mathrm{Spec}𝒪$ and $(\pi :𝒳\to 𝒮;{\sigma }_1,...,{\sigma }_n)$ an $n$-pointed stable curve of genus $g$. Write $𝒰=𝒳\setminus {\cup }_j{\sigma }_j\left(𝒮\right)$. The invertible sheaf ${\omega }_{𝒳/𝒮}({\sigma }_1+\cdots +{\sigma }_n)$ inherits a hermitian structure ${\parallel ·\parallel }_{\mathrm{hyp}}$ from the dual of the hyperbolic metric on the Riemann surface ${𝒰}_{\infty }$. In this article we prove an arithmetic Riemann-Roch type theorem that computes the arithmetic self-intersection of ${\omega }_{𝒳/𝒮}{({\sigma }_1+...+{\sigma }_n)}_{\mathrm{hyp}}$. The theorem is applied to modular curves $X\left(\Gamma \right)$, $\Gamma ={\Gamma }_0\left(p\right)$ or ${\Gamma }_1\left(p\right)$, $p\ge 11$ prime, with sections given by the cusps. We show $Z^{\text{'}}(Y\left(\Gamma \right),1)\sim e^a{\pi }^b{\Gamma }_2{(1/2)}^{c}L(0,{ℳ}_{\Gamma })$, with $p\equiv 11mod12$ when $\Gamma ={\Gamma }_0\left(p\right)$. Here $Z\left(Y\right(\Gamma ),s)$ is the Selberg...

Let $S$ be a Riemann surface. Let ${ℍ}^3$ be the $3$-dimensional hyperbolic space and let ${\partial }_{\infty }{ℍ}^3$ be its ideal boundary. In our context, a Plateau problem is a locally holomorphic mapping $\varphi :S\to {\partial }_{\infty }{ℍ}^3=\widehat{ℂ}$. If $i:S\to {ℍ}^3$ is a convex immersion, and if $N$ is its exterior normal vector field, we define the Gauss lifting, $\widehat{ı}$, of $i$ by $\widehat{ı}=N$. Let $\overrightarrow{n}:U{ℍ}^3\to {\partial }_{\infty }{ℍ}^3$ be the Gauss-Minkowski mapping. A solution to the Plateau problem $(S,\varphi )$ is a convex immersion $i$ of constant Gaussian curvature equal to $k\in (0,1)$ such that the Gauss lifting $(S,\widehat{ı})$ is complete and $\overrightarrow{n}\circ \widehat{ı}=\varphi$. In this...

On geometrically finite hyperbolic manifolds $\Gamma \setminus {ℍ}^d$, including those with non-maximal rank cusps, we give upper bounds on the number $N\left(R\right)$ of resonances of the Laplacian in disks of size $R$ as $R\to \infty$. In particular, if the parabolic subgroups of $\Gamma$ satisfy a certain Diophantine condition, the bound is $N\left(R\right)=𝒪\left(R^d{\left(\log R\right)}^{d+1}\right)$.
