This article introduces and studies the entropy spectrum of a hyperbolic surface, that is the set of entropies of its subsurfaces. The main results are that the entropy spectrum is a reverse well-ordered multiset, with finite multiplicities, and that there is a quantifiable gap around the value $1$. This gap comes from a counting result on the number of non-filling geodesics which in turn comes from explicit estimates on the number of curves on surfaces with boundary in terms of geometric data. The geometric data includes lengths of boundary geodesics and so-called boundary width, which measures maximal distance to the boundary but can also be interpreted in terms of the topology of the surface and the systole.
We develop a general theory for the dynamics of the geodesic flow of locally CAT(k) branched coverings and we show that it does not depend on the specific covering but only on the base space, the branching set and the degree of the covering. We find an explicit formula for the entropy: it equals the topological pressur...
We extend the notion of Plancherel convergence, introduced in the study of compact quotients of locally compact groups, to finite-area hyperbolic surfaces and establish a quantum ergodicity theorem for Plancherel sequences. We show that the expectation values of integral operators whose kernels are uniformly bounded an...
In this article, we announce several new results in the ergodic theory of geodesic flows over uniform visibility manifolds without conjugate points. The topics include the ergodicity with respect to the Liouville measure, uniqueness and Bernoulli properties of the measure of maximal entropy and equilibrium states, coun...

We prove the existence of an essential spectral gap for convex cocompact complex hyperbolic manifolds under the hypothesis that the limit set does not contain a complex circle. We apply an extension to complex hyperbolic manifolds due to Quan of the approach of Vasy to meromorphic continuation of the resolvent. This al...
We establish some results characterizing central or axial symmetry of convex sets in the hyperbolic plane. The characterizations follow the spirit of a Chakerian-Klamkin's characterization of central symmetry for Euclidean sets: if for any three point-subset M of a compact set K there is a symmetric image of M that is...

We construct hyperbolic horseshoes for piecewise-analytic homeomorphisms of the circle with {\it multiple} break-type singularities, under the assumptions of bounded type rotation numbers and bounded geometry -- provided the sizes of the breaks are uniformly small. As a consequence, we obtain a $C^{1+\alpha}$-rigidity...
