The authors define a ``spiraling spectrum'' for each closed geodesic in a negatively curved geodesic metric space. This describes the tendency of geodesics to stay away from a closed geodesic for a long time before being drawn in rapidly toward the closed geodesic. They prove, among other things, that the spiraling spectrum is bounded and that if the metric space is a constant curvature manifold, then the spiraling spectrum is closed. Further, if the constant curvature manifold is of dimension at least 3, then the spiraling spectrum contains a closed interval \([0,c]\) for some \(c>0\). They use these results to obtain approximation theorems for real or complex numbers by quadratic irrationals. | |||

The authors define a ``spiraling spectrum'' for each closed geodesic in a negatively curved geodesic metric space. This describes the tendency of geodesics to stay away from a closed geodesic for a long time before being drawn in rapidly toward the closed geodesic. They prove, among other things, that the spiraling spectrum is bounded and that if the metric space is a constant curvature manifold, then the spiraling spectrum is closed. Further, if the constant curvature manifold is of dimension at least 3, then the spiraling spectrum contains a closed interval \([0,c]\) for some \(c>0\). They use these results to obtain approximation theorems for real or complex numbers by quadratic irrationals.
