Experimental statistics for Mirzakhani's Theorem

Abstract

In her seminal 2008 paper, Maryam Mirzakhani showed that the ratio that two topological types of curves occur in is a rational number. In this paper we describe the process by which we obtained experimental evidence that separating and non-separating curves on the surface of genus two occur in the ratio 1 : 48.
