Abstract: V. Fock [7] introduced an interesting function psi(x), xinmathbbR related to Markov numbers. We explain its relation to Federer-Gromov's stable norm and Mather's -function, and use this to study its properties. We prove that psi and its natural generalisations are differentiable at every irrational x and non-differentiable otherwise, by exploiting the relation with length of closed geodesics on the punctured or one-hole tori with the hyperbolic metric and the results by Bangert [3] and McShane- Rivin [19].
