Abstract
In this paper we construct, for given any small positive number $ε$ and given natural number $n$, and given any closed hyperbolic surface $M$, a closed hyperbolic covering surface $\widetilde{M}$, such that its $n$-th eigenvalue is less than $ε$. An application of this result will also be discussed. The main result follows from the techniques used in B.Randol's paper in 1974 [Ran]. Here I give a new and geometric proof of the main result.
