Linking Numbers of Modular Knots

§1. In this note we examine some questions about closed geodesics on the modular surface X which are suggested by the spectacular pictures from Ghys’ talk [G] as well as his paper with Leys [G-L]. The discussion below follows closely my letter to Mozzochi [Sa1] and as is done there we will only outline the proofs of the main results. Detailed proofs of the delicate estimates that are needed will appear in Mozzochi’s article [Mo].
