#### Continued Fractions and Ergodic Theory on the Hyperbolic Plane

###### Claire Merriman (UIUC Math)

Abstract: I will talk about how tessellations of the Hyperbolic plane by elements of the modular and Fuchsian groups relate to continued fractions and ergodicity. This is based off of Caroline Series’ “Non-Euclidean Geometry, Continued Fractions, and Ergodic Theory"
