We show that as $R \\to \\infty$ these circles distribute to a measure on $X$ which is equivalent to the area. In the last section we consider analogous results for closed geodesics.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-07-29T14:49:59.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "translation surface", "large circles", "distribution", "common center point", "circles distribute" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 26, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
