Framing by opening up. Approaching matters of concern in nature based tourism
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024)Nature-based tourism is imbued with ambiguities that tell of tourism as deeply intertwined in the development of places. Inspired by Krzywoszynska (2023) and Stirling’s (2008) idea of framing research by opening up, we argue for attending to nature-based tourism as an open relational historical-geographical phenomenon, to illuminate the grey zones of world-making in the place-tourism nexus. ... -
Counting and Equidistribution of Reciprocal Geodesics and Dihedral Groups
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-04-25)We study the growth of the number of conjugacy classes of infinite dihedral subgroups of lattices in PSL<sub>2</sub> R, generalizing the earlier work of Sarnak [9] and Bourgain–Kontorovich [4] on the growth of the number of reciprocal geodesics on the modular surface. We also prove that reciprocal geodesics are equidistributed in the unit tangent bundle. -
