Bolza surface conjecture for extremal-length systoles in genus 2
Bolza surface conjecture for extremal-length systoles in genus 2
Let denote the moduli space of conformal classes of closed genus- surfaces. For a conformal class , let be the minimum extremal length of an essential simple closed curve on . Bolza surface conjecture. The maximum of in genus is attained by the conformal class of the Bolza surface. The Bolza surface is known to realize the maximum of the hyperbolic systole in genus and also appears as a maximizer for other notions of systolic length; whether it maximizes the extremal-length systole remains open.
