We are concerned with the well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for the first-order quasilinear equations with non-Lipschitz source terms and the global structures of the multi-dimensional Riemann solutions. For such quasilinear equations…

We prove that, on any closed manifold of dimension at least two with non-trivial first Betti number, a $C^\infty$ generic Riemannian metric has infinitely many closed geodesics, and indeed closed geodesics of arbitrarily large length. We…

The geodesic flow of a Riemannian metric on a compact manifold $Q$ is said to be toric integrable if it is completely integrable and the first integrals of motion generate a homogeneous torus action on the punctured cotangent bundle…
