Geodesic laminations on the 4-punctured sphere

Let $S_{0,4}$ be the 4-punctured sphere equipped with a hyperbolic metric of finite volume (thus all punctures are cusps). Consider $\gamma$ to be a simple geodesic of $S_{0,4}$ (not necessarily ...

Hyperbolic length of curve that does not enter a collar

Let $\Sigma$ be a compact surface of genus at least $1$ with one boundary component, equipped with a hyperbolic metric so that the boundary is geodesic. There is a version of the collar lemma that ...

Does there exist a closed geodesic go through a $\epsilon$-net of a hyperbolic surface?

An $\epsilon$-net of a closed hyperbolic surface $X$ is a finite set of points $p_i$ such that the family of balls centered at $p_i$ with radius $\epsilon$ is a cover of $X$, and the family of balls ...

Compact open topology on the space of geodesics

I'm new in the field, so I'm sorry in advance if my question is too naive. Let's consider $S$ a surface of genus $g\ge 2$ with an hyperbolic metric $g$. Let's call $\mathcal{S}(S)$ the set of closed ...
