In particular, we relate the extremal conformal measures to the eigenmeasures of a suitable Ruelle operator. Using Ancona's theorem, adapted to the Ruelle operator setting, we show that if the group of deck transformations $G$ is hyperbolic then the extremal conformal measures and the hyperbolic boundary of $G$ coincide. We then interpret these results in terms of the asymptotic behavior of cutting sequences of geodesics on a regular cover of a compact hyperbolic surface.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-11-18T17:52:39.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20F67", "30F35", "31C35", "37D40" ], "keywords": [ "cocompact fuchsian group", "normal subgroup", "extremal conformal measures", "ruelle operator", "compact hyperbolic surface" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
