Asymptotics of the spectrum and the Selberg zeta function on the space of Riemann surfaces
SA Wolpert - Communications in mathematical physics, 1987 - Springer
Let Z (s, R) be the Selberg zeta function of a compact Riemann surface R. We study the
behavior of Z (s, R) as R tends to infinity in the moduli space of stable curves. The main …
