Geometry and spectra of compact Riemann surfaces [electronic resource] / by Peter Buser.

This classic monograph is a self-contained introduction to the geometry of Riemann surfaces of constant curvature -1 and their length and eigenvalue spectra. It focuses on two subjects: the geometric theory of compact Riemann surfaces of genus greater than one, and the relationship of the Laplace op...
