Let $\Sigma$ be a compact orientable surface with nonempty boundary, let $\varphi: \Sigma \to \Sigma$ be an orientation-preserving pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism, and let $M = \Sigma \times I / \stackrel{\varphi}{\sim}$ be the mapping torus of…
We establish a rigidity result for the unstable foliations of transitive Anosov flows on 3-manifolds: if the unstable foliations of two such flows are equivalent (that is, if there exists a homeomorphism mapping one foliation to the other),…
We show that every volume preserving codimension one Anosov flow on a closed Riemannian manifold of dimension greater than three admits a global cross section and is therefore topologically conjugate to a suspension of a linear toral…
This is an expository note intended to illustrate current research in topological study of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms in dimension 3 with a beautiful result due to Margulis and Plante-Thurston on topological obstructions for a…
The invariant measured foliations of a pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism induce a natural (singular) Sol structure on mapping tori of surfaces with pseudo-Anosov monodromy. We show that when the pseudo-Anosov $\phi:S\rightarrow S$ has orientable…
We prove that a $C^2$-generic Riemannian metric on a closed surface has either an elliptic closed geodesic or an Anosov geodesic flow. As a consequence, we prove the $C^2$-stability conjecture for Riemannian geodesic flows of closed…
In this paper, we describe a new approach to the problem of classification of transitive Anosov flows on 3-manifolds up to orbital equivalence. More specifically, generalizing the notion of Markov partition, we introduce the notion of…
In this paper we study the behavior of geodesics on cones over arbitrary $C^3$-smooth closed Riemannian manifolds. We show that the geodesic flow on such cones admits first integrals whose values uniquely determine almost all geodesics…
We study R-covered foliations of 3-manifolds from the point of view of their transverse geometry. For an R-covered foliation in an atoroidal 3-manifold M, we show that M-tilde can be partially compactified by a canonical cylinder S^1_univ x…
The goal of this article is to establish several general properties of a somewhat large class of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms called \emph{discretized Anosov flows}. A general definition for these systems is presented and is proven…
A sectional-Anosov flow on a manifold M is a C^1 vector field inwardly transverse to the boundary for which the maximal invariant is sectional-hyperbolic. We prove that every attractor of every vector field C^1 close to a transitive…
Let $\Sigma$ be a Riemannian manifold with strictly convex spherical boundary. Assuming absence of conjugate points and that the trapped set is hyperbolic, we show that $\Sigma$ can be isometrically embedded into a closed Riemannian…
Given a closed hyperbolic 3-manifold M with a quasigeodesic flow we construct a \pi_1-equivariant sphere-filling curve in the boundary of hyperbolic space. Specifically, we show that any complete transversal P to the lifted flow on H^3 has…
For $\mathcal{O}$ a hyperbolic orientable 2-orbifold of genus $g$ with at most $2g+6$ conic points, we prove that the geodesic flow on the unitary tangent bundle$\mathrm{T}^1\mathcal{O}$ admits a Birkhoff section whose genus is one.…
We prove hyperbolic 3-manifolds are geometrically inflexible: a unit quasiconformal deformation of a Kleinian group extends to an equivariant bi-Lipschitz diffeomorphism between quotients whose pointwise bi-Lipschitz constant decays…
For Anosov flows preserving a smooth measure on a closed manifold $\mathcal{M}$, we define a natural self-adjoint operator $\Pi$ which maps into the space of invariant distributions in $\cap_{u<0} H^{u}(\mathcal{M})$ and whose kernel is…
This paper presents a new construction of non-Anosov Partially Hyperbolic Geodesic flows. Our construction is closely related to the construction made by Carneiro and Pujals, the novelty is the use of conformal deformations to produce the…
We give a topological stability result for the action of the fundamental group of a compact manifold of negative curvature on its boundary at infinity: any nearby action of this group by homeomorphisms of the sphere is semi-conjugate to the…
In this paper we prove that if the geodesic flow of a {compact or non-compact} complete manifold without conjugate points is of the Anosov type, then the average of the integral of the sectional curvature along the geodesic is negative and…
