Lengths of saddle connections on random translation surfaces of large genus

Abstract

We determine the distribution of the number of saddle connections on a random translation surface of large genus. More specifically, for genus g tending to infinity, the number of saddle connections with lengths in a given interval [ag, bg] converges in distribution to a Poisson distributed random variable. Furthermore, the numbers of saddle connections associated to disjoint intervals of lengths are independent.
