In 2004, Manning showed that the topological entropy of the geodesic flow for a surface of negative curvature decreases as the metric evolves under the normalised Ricci flow. It is an interesting open problem, also due to Manning, to…

Let $\Phi$ be a flow on a smooth, compact, finite-dimensional manifold $M$. Consider the subsets $E(\Phi)$ and $D(\Phi)$ of $C^{\infty}(M,M)$ consisting of smoothh mappings and diffeomorphisms (respectively) of $M$ preserving the foliation…

Consider the set $\chi^0_{\mathrm{nw}}$ of non-wandering continuous flows on a closed surface. Then such a flow can be approximated by regular non-wandering flows without heteroclinic connections nor locally dense orbits in…

We prove that every $C^1$ three-dimensional flow with positive topological entropy can be $C^1$ approximated by flows with homoclinic orbits. This extends a previous result for $C^1$ surface diffeomorphisms \cite{g}.

Topological entropy is a widely studied indicator of chaos in topological dynamics. Here we give a generalized definition of topological entropy which may be applied to set-valued functions. We demonstrate that some of the well-known…

In this work, we introduce a natural class of chaotic flows on non-compact manifolds, called H-flows, which includes geodesic flows on non-compact manifolds with pinched negative curvature. We show that, under the additional assumption,…

This paper is devoted to problems stated by Z. Zhou and F. Li in 2009. They concern relations between almost periodic, weakly almost periodic, and quasi-weakly almost periodic points of a continuous map f and its topological entropy. The…

We prove that the polynomial entropy of an orientation preserving homeomorphism of the circle equals 1 when the homeomorphism is not conjugate to a rotation and that it is 0 otherwise. In a second part we prove that the polynomial entropy…

In this paper we study the ergodic theory and thermodynamic formalism of the geodesic flow on non-compact pinched negatively curved manifolds. We consider two notions of entropy at infinity, the topological and the measure theoretic entropy…

The topological entropy dimension is mainly used to distinguish the zero topological entropy systems. Two types of topological entropy dimensions, the classical entropy dimension and the Pesin entropy dimension, are investigated for…

While a variety of fundamental differences are known to separate two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) fluid flows, it is not well understood how they are related. Conventionally, dimensional reduction is justified by an \emph{a…

We explore the relationship between Turing completeness and topological entropy of dynamical systems. We first prove that a natural class of Turing machines that we call "branching Turing machines" (which includes most of the known examples…

Bounds of total curvature and entropy are two common conditions placed on mean curvature flows. We show that these two hypotheses are equivalent for the class of ancient complete embedded smooth planar curve shortening flows, which are…

In this paper, we prove that entropy degeneracy and entropy explosion happen in the flow constructed by Ohno. We also construct a flow which has the only one invariant and ergodic measure supporting at a fixed point. This flow is no entropy…

In this paper it is proved that near a compact, invariant, proper subset of a continuous flow on a compact, connected metric space, at least one, out of twenty eight relevant dynamical phenomena, will necessarily occur. This result shows…

In this article we prove two formulas for the topological entropy of an F-optical Hamiltonian flow induced by a C^{\infty} Hamiltonian, where F is a Lagrangian distribution. In these formulas, we calculate the topological entropy as the…

Let $G$ be a topological group, let $\phi$ be a continuous endomorphism of $G$ and let $H$ be a closed $\phi$-invariant subgroup of $G$. We study whether the topological entropy is an additive invariant, that is,…

Let $f$ be a $C^r$ ($r>1$) diffeomorphism on a compact surface $M$ with $h_{\rm top}(f)\geq\frac{\lambda^{+}(f)}{r}$ where $\lambda^{+}(f):=\lim_{n\to+\infty}\frac{1}{n}\max_{x\in M}\log \left\|Df^{n}_{x}\right\|$. We establish an…

We study nontrivial entropy invariants in the class of parabolic flows on homogeneous spaces, quasi-unipotent flows. We show that topological complexity (ie, slow entropy) can be computed directly from the Jordan block structure of the…

We consider impulsive semiflows defined on compact metric spaces and deduce a variational principle. In particular, we generalize the classical notion of topological entropy to our setting of discontinuous semiflows.
