We study the behavior of the Yang-Mills flow for unitary connections on compact and non-compact oriented surfaces with varying metrics. The flow can be used to define a one dimensional foliation on the space of SU(2) representations of a…

We study zero entropy automorphisms of a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$. Our goal is to bring to light some new structures of the action on the cohomology of $X$, in terms of the so-called dynamical filtrations on $H^{1,1}(X, {\mathbb R})$.…

Let S be an oriented surface of genus g with m punctures. If 3g-3+m is at least 4 then we construct for every compact subset K of moduli space a closed Teichmueller geodesic not intersecting K.

We show that the Hausdorff dimension of any proper Teichm\"uller horocycle flow orbit closure on any $\mathrm{SL}{(2,\mathbf{R})}$-invariant subvariety of Abelian or quadratic differentials is bounded away from the dimension of the…

In this paper we introduce a new geometric flow with rotational invariance and prove that, under this kind of flow, an arbitrary smooth closed contractible hypersurface in the Euclidean space Rn+1 (n, 1) converges to Sn in the C1-topology…

In this article, we exhibit certain linking properties of periodic orbits of $C^{1+\alpha}$ flows with positive topological entropy on closed 3-manifolds M. It is shown that any such flow contains a link L of periodic orbits and a horseshoe…

The Teichm\"uller harmonic map flow is a gradient flow for the harmonic map energy of maps from a closed surface to a general closed Riemannian target manifold of any dimension, where both the map and the domain metric are allowed to…

We study one-parameter curves on the universal Teichm\"uller space $T$ and on the homogeneous space $M=\Diff S^1/\Rot S^1$ embedded into $T$. As a result, we deduce evolution equations for conformal maps that admit quasiconformal extensions…

For many classes of symplectic manifolds, the Hamiltonian flow of a function with sufficiently large variation must have a fast periodic orbit. This principle is the base of the notion of Hofer-Zehnder capacity and some other symplectic…

Let $M$ be a closed manifold and consider the Hamiltonian flow associated to an autonomous Tonelli Hamiltonian $H:T^*M\rightarrow \mathbb R$ and a twisted symplectic form. In this paper we study the existence of contractible periodic orbits…

We construct topological invariants, called abstract weak orbit spaces, of flows and homeomorphisms on topological spaces, to describe both gradient dynamics and recurrent dynamics. In particular, the abstract weak orbit spaces of flows on…

We consider Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms $\phi$ of the unit cotangent bundle over a closed Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ which extend to Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of $T^*M$ equal to the time-1-map of the geodesic flow for $|p| \ge 1$. For…

Let S be a non-exceptional oriented surface of finite type. We discuss the action of subgroups of the mapping class group of S on the CAT(0)-boundary of the completion of Teichmueller space with respect to the Weil-Petersson metric. We show…

We consider the Hamiltonian flow on complex complete intersection surfaces with isolated singularities, equipped with the Jacobian Poisson structure. More generally we consider complete intersections of arbitrary dimension equipped with…

Every topological group $G$ has up to isomorphism a unique minimal $G$-flow that maps onto every minimal $G$-flow, the universal minimal flow $M(G).$ We show that if $G$ has a compact normal subgroup $K$ that acts freely on $M(G)$ and there…

We prove a quantitative version of the non-uniform hyperbolicity of the Teichm\"uller geodesic flow. Namely, at each point of any Teichm\"uller flow line, we bound the infinitesimal spectral gap for variations of the Hodge norm along the…

We study the dynamics of the Teichmuller flow in the moduli space of Abelian differentials (and more generally, its restriction to any connected component of a stratum). We show that the (Masur-Veech) absolutely continuous invariant…

This paper investigates which smooth manifolds arise as quotients (orbit spaces) of flows of vector fields. Such quotient maps were already known to be surjective on fundamental groups, but this paper shows that every epimorphism of…

We give a uniform lower bound for the polynomial complexity of all Reeb flows on the spherization (S*M,\xi) over a closed manifold. Our measure for the dynamical complexity of Reeb flows is slow volume growth, a polynomial version of…

We consider the dynamical properties of $C^{\infty}$-variations of the flow on an aperiodic Kuperberg plug ${\mathbb K}$. Our main result is that there exists a smooth 1-parameter family of plugs ${\mathbb K}_{\epsilon}$ for $\epsilon \in…
