Geodesics on flat surfaces with conical singularities / zeta function forautomorphisms of free groups

Objective



Research objectives and content
The project contains two parts which will be pursued simultaneously: A-Geodesics on flat surfaces with singular points B-Zeta function for free groups automorphisms.
In my Ph.D. thesis A-l studied surfaces which are obtained by certain identification of the edges of regular 4g-gon. B-l introduced and computed a zeta function for a large class of free group automorphisms. Goals
A1: Generalize the results of my thesis to more general flat surfaces with singularities.
A2: Describe the geodesics on such surfaces which contain a singularity. A3: Compute or at least estimate the growth function of simple geodesics and of multiple points in dependence of the length
A4: Computing the number, length and homotopy class of the systoles of such surfaces and compute Gromov's isosystolic inequalities. B1: Give an algebraic-dynamic zeta function for all automorphisms of free groups.
B2: Extend the definition to automorphisms of surfaces and word-hyperbolic groups.
B3: Compute efficiently this zeta function and prove ist rationality Training content (objective, benefit and expected impact)

Programme(s)

Multi-annual funding programmes that define the EU’s priorities for research and innovation.

Topic(s)

Calls for proposals are divided into topics. A topic defines a specific subject or area for which applicants can submit proposals. The description of a topic comprises its specific scope and the expected impact of the funded project.

Call for proposal

Procedure for inviting applicants to submit project proposals, with the aim of receiving EU funding.
