Description
Inspired by the well-studied case of hyperbolic surfaces, we can ask about the expected value of geometric properties of translation surfaces for large genus.
In this talk, we consider the number of saddle connections in a given length range as a random variable on a stratum and show that for genus going to infinity, this converges in distribution to a Poisson distributed random variable.
This is based on joint work with Howard Masur and Kasra Rafi.
