Geometry Graduate Colloquium

Titel Surfaces, graphs and complexes
Referent:in, Affiliation Marie Abadie, University of Luxembourg
Datum, Zeit 3. Oktober 2024, 16:15-17:15
Ort HG G 19.2
Abstract The goal of this talk is to provide a brief overview of the interactions between hyperbolic surfaces and certain combinatorial objects. Specifically, we will explore Brock's combinatorial approach to understanding the coarse geometry of Teichmüller space equipped with the Weil-Petersson metric. This approach revolves around using the pants graph as a combinatorial tool for navigating Teichmüller space. Along the way, we will also encounter the hexagons graph and other related questions.

Geometry Graduate Colloquium

Titel Hyperbolicity and winning strategies in Cops and Robbers games
Referent:in, Affiliation Raphael Appenzeller, Heidelberg University
Datum, Zeit 10. Oktober 2024, 16:15-17:15
Ort HG G 19.2
Abstract Cops and Robbers is a two-player game played on graphs, where one player tries to catch the other, while the other tries to escape. Recently, a version of this game was introduced, where the existence of a winning strategy is invariant under quasi-isometry. This allows to play the game on Cayley-graphs of groups and gives new group invariants. We spotlight some connections between Gromov-hyperbolicity and the existence of winning strategies.

Geometry Graduate Colloquium

Titel Billiard dynamics and Masur’s Criterion
Referent:in, Affiliation Sophie Schmidhuber, University of Zurich
Datum, Zeit 17. Oktober 2024, 16:15-17:15
Ort HG G 19.2
Abstract In this talk, we will show how the trajectory of a billiard ball on a billiard table with rational angles can be understood via the straight line flow on a translation surface. We will define the geodesic flow for the moduli space of translation surfaces and provide a simple but elegant proof for Masur's Criterion, which states that if the trajectory of a translation surface under the geodesic flow is recurrent, then the vertical straight line flow on the translation surface is uniquely ergodic.
