Titel: Linear programming bounds for hyperbolic surfaces
Abstract: I will speak about extremal problems in the (spectral) geometry of hyperbolic surfaces and how linear programming methods, inspired by bounds on the density of Euclidean sphere packings, can help. I will not assume any familiarity with hyperbolic geometry or spectral theory. This is joint work with Maxime Fortier Bourque.
