Abstract: The paper is devoted to generic translation flows corresponding to Abelian differentials on flat surfaces of arbitrary genus $gge2$. These flows are weakly mixing by the Avila-Forni theorem. In genus 2, the H"older property for the spectral measures of these flows was established in our papers [10,12]. Recently Forni [17], motivated by [10], obtained H"older estimates for spectral measures in the case of surfaces of arbitrary genus. Here we combine Forni's idea with the symbolic approach of [10] and prove H"older regularity for spectral measures of flows on random Markov compacta, in particular, for translation flows in all genera.

Review text

Given a holomorphic one-form \(\omega\) on a compact orientable surface \(M\) the flow at unit speed along the leaves of the foliation \(\Re(\omega)=0\) defines the vertical flow \(t\mapsto h_t^{+}\) on \(M\), which preserves the area form induced by \(\omega\). \textit{A. Katok} [Isr. J. Math. 35, 301--310 (1980; Zbl 0437.28009)] showed that this vertical flow is never mixing, and \textit{H. Masur} [Ann. Math. (2) 115, 169--200 (1982; Zbl 0497.28012)] and \textit{W. A. Veech} [Ann. Math. (2) 115, 201--242 (1982; Zbl 0486.28014)] showed independently that for almost every abelian differential (with respect to a natural volume measure on the moduli space of abelian differentials) the vertical flow is uniquely ergodic under some additional technical hypotheses. \textit{W. A. Veech} [Am. J. Math. 106, 1331--1359 (1984; Zbl 0631.28006)] showed also that almost all translation flows, again under a technical hypothesis, are weak mixing. The latter result was later shown in full generality by \textit{A. Avila} and \textit{G. Forni} [Ann. Math. (2) 165, No. 2, 637--664 (2007; Zbl 1136.37003)]. Thus the spectrum of translation flows is almost surely continuous and always has a singular component. The authors [Isr. J. Math. 223, 205--259 (2018; Zbl 1386.37035); J. Anal. Math. 141, No. 1, 165--205 (2020; Zbl 1462.37025)] developed tools to find local asymptotics for the spectral measures of translation flows using uniform estimates for twisted Birkhoff integrals and Diophantine arguments. \textit{G. Forni} [``Twisted translation flows and effective weak mixing, Preprint, \url{arXiv:1908.11040}] found Hölder estimates for spectral measures for surfaces of any genus. Here many of these ideas, including a symbolic formulation of some of Forni's approach are used to simplify and generalise the author's earlier arguments, giving a Hölder property (and hence, for example, implications for quantitative rates of weak mixing) for a general class of random Markov compacta, giving in particular the result for almost all (with respect to any of a more general class of measures) translation flows on surfaces of any genus.
