Counting Closed Geodesics in Rank 1 $\mathrm{SL}\left(2,\mathbb{R}\right)$-orbit Closures

Abstract: We obtain bounds on the numbers of intersections between triangulations as the conformal structure of a surface varies along a Teichm{\"u}ller geodesic contained in an $\mathrm{SL}\left(2,\mathbb{R}\right)$-orbit closure of rank 1 in the moduli space of Abelian differentials. For $0 \leq \theta \leq 1$, we obtain an exponential bound on the number of closed geodesics in the orbit closure, of length at most $R$, that spend at least $\theta$-fraction of their length in a region with short saddle connections.
