This week we have a local speaker, Jenya Sapir.

Title: Long geodesics on surfaces

Abstract: I will talk about a recent result of Athreya, Lalley, Wroten and
myself. Given a hyperbolic surface S, a typical long geodesic arc will
divide the surface into many polygons. We give statistics for the geometry
of this tessellation. Along the way, we look at how long geodesic arcs
behave in very small balls on the surface.
