We prove that the Laurent polynomial in $\mathbb{Z}[q^{\pm 1}]$ that is the top coefficient of the Links-Gould invariant of the boundary of a Seifert surface is multiplicative under plumbing of surfaces. We deduce that the Links-Gould…

We study the transport of Gaussian measures under the flow of the 2-dimensional defocusing Schr\"odinger equation $i \partial_t u + \Delta u = |u|^{2k} u$ posed on $\mathbb T^2$. In particular, we show that the Gaussian measures with…

We introduce the concept of topological expansive flow. We prove that this concept is invariant by topological conjugacy and reduces to expansivity in the compact case. We characterize tiopological expansive flows as rescaling expansive…

We formulate a very general conjecture relating the analytical invariants of a normal surface singularity to the Seiberg-Witten invariants of its link provided that the link is a rational homology sphere. As supporting evidence, we…

We construct a Gibbs measure for the nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLS) on the circle, conditioned on prescribed mass and momentum: d \mu_{a,b} = Z^{-1} 1_{\int_T |u|^2 = a} 1_{i \int_T u \bar{u}_x = b} exp (\pm1/p \int_T |u|^p - 1/2…

The landslide flow, introduced in [5], is a smoother analog of the earthquake flow on Teichm\"uller space which shares some of its key properties. We show here that further properties of earthquakes apply to landslides. The landslide flow…

We prove the existence of Sinai-Ruelle-Bowen measures for a class of $C^2$ self-mappings of a rectangle with unbounded derivatives. The results can be regarded as a generalization of a well-known one dimensional Folklore Theorem on the…

In this paper, we construct a countable partition $\mathscr{A}$ for flows with hyperbolic singularities by introducing a new cross section at each singularity. Such partition forms a Kakutani tower in a neighborhood of the singularity, and…

The purpose of this paper is to discuss the relationship between commutative and non-commutative integrability of Hamiltonian systems and to construct new examples of integrable geodesic flows on Riemannian manifolds. In particular, we…
