In this note we consider two different singular limits to hyperbolic system of conservation laws, namely the standard backward schemes for non linear semigroups and the semidiscrete scheme. Under the assumption that the rarefaction curve of…
These lecture notes for the IAS/Park City Graduate Summer School in Geometric Combinatorics (July 2004) provide an overview of poset topology. These notes include introductory material, as well as recent developments and open problems. Some…
In this conference published in 1997 some problems on the geodesics of a Lorentzian manifold concerning causality and infinite-dimensional variational methods, are pointed out. Even though a big progress on many of these questions have been…
This is a short survey on finite-volume hyperbolic four-manifolds. We describe some general theorems and focus on the concrete examples that we found in the literature. The paper contains no new result.
We consider the characteristic problem for the ultrahyperbolic equation in the Euclidean space. The value of a solution is prescribed on the characteristic hyperplane. A well-posed set-up of the problem is discussed. We obtain a certain…
On June 5, 2007 the second author delivered a talk at the Journees de l'Institut Elie Cartan entitled "Finite symmetry groups in complex geometry". This paper begins with an expanded version of that talk which, in the spirit of the…
This note was written for the proceedings of the conference "Symplectic Geometry and Anosov Flows" held in Heideleberg in July 2024. It is meant as an invitation to the study of certain families of contact structures, centering around the…
The purpose of these expository notes is to give a quick and elementary, yet rigorous, presentation of the rudiments of the theory of Viscosity Solutions for fully nonlinear 2nd order PDE, with applications to Calculus of Variations in the…
This paper surveys recent results on classifying partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms. This includes the construction of branching foliations and leaf conjugacies on three-dimensional manifolds with solvable fundamental group.…
In these expository notes we draw together and develop the ideas behind some recent progress in two directions: the treatment of finite type partial differential operators by prolongation, and a class of differential complexes known as…
It is shown that some aspects of classic KPP-theory of 1937 can be applied to a number of higher-order dispersion, hyperbolic, and other equations.

This is an extended abstract of my talk at the Oberwolfach Workshop "Algebraic Groups" (April 22 - 28, 2007). It is based on a joint work with H.Derksen and J.Weyman (arXiv:0704.0649v2 [math.RA]).
In a variety of settings we provide a method for decomposing a 3-manifold $M$ into pieces. When the pieces have the appropriate type of hyperbolicity, then the manifold $M$ is hyperbolic and its volume is bounded below by the sum of the…
A hyperbolic reflection group is a discrete group generated by reflections in the faces of an $n$-dimensional hyperbolic polyhedron. This survey article is dedicated to the study of arithmetic hyperbolic reflection groups with an emphasis…
In 1970, Hirsch asked what kind of compact invariant sets could be part of a hyperbolic set. Here we obtain that, in case such an invariant set is a 3D manifold, it is a connected sum of tori with handles quotiented by involutions.…
This is a survey article written for the proceedings of the special year in several complex variables, 1995-1996, at the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute in Berkeley.
We prove the results in [1] using Theorem 1 of the recent paper [2] by Crovisier and Yang. References: [1] Arbieto, A., Rojas, C., Santiago, B., Existence of attractors, homoclinic tangencies and singular-hyperbolicity for flows,…

One derives the governing equations and the Rankine - Hugoniot conditions for a mixture of two miscible fluids using an extended form of Hamilton's principle of least action. The Lagrangian is constructed as the difference between the…
