Counting hyperbolic multigeodesics with respect to the lengths of individual components and asymptotics of Weil–Petersson volumes

Given a connected, oriented, complete, finite area hyperbolic surface $X$ of genus $g$ with $n$ punctures, Mirzakhani showed that the number of multi-geodesics on $X$ of total hyperbolic length $\leq L$ in the mapping class group orbit of a given simple or filling closed multi-curve is asymptotic as $L \to \infty$ to a polynomial in $L$ of degree $6g-6+2n$. We establish asymptotics of the same kind for countings of multi-geodesics in mapping class group orbits of simple or filling closed multi-curves that keep track of the hyperbolic lengths of individual components, proving and generalizing a conjecture of Wolpert. In the simple case we consider more precise countings that also keep track of the class of the multi-geodesics in the space of projective measured geodesic laminations. We provide a unified geometric and topological description of the leading terms of the asymptotics of all the countings considered. Our proofs combine techniques and results from several papers of Mirzakhani as well as ideas introduced by Margulis in his thesis.
