Moreover, the Hausdorff dimension of the hitting measure is strictly less than 1. A similar statement is proven for Coxeter groups. Along the way, we prove for cocompact Fuchsian groups a purely geometric inequality for geodesic lengths, strongly reminiscent of the Anderson-Canary-Culler-Shalen inequality for free Kleinian groups.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2021-04-27T04:24:35.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60G50", "20F67", "30F35", "60J50" ], "keywords": [ "cocompact fuchsian group", "fundamental inequality", "hitting measure", "translations joining opposite sides", "symmetric hyperbolic polygon" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 20, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
