The space $\mathrm{GC} (\Sigma)$ of geodesic currents on a hyperbolic surface $\Sigma$ can be considered as a completion of the set of weighted closed geodesics on $\Sigma$ when $\Sigma$ is compact, since the set of rational geodesic…
The geodesic structure is very closely related to the trace of the Laplace operator, involved in the calculation of the expectation value of the energy momentum tensor in Universes with non trivial topology. The purpose of this work is to…
We prove that fibered hyperbolic $3$-manifolds carrying transitive Anosov flows are abundant. More precisely, for every $g\geq 2$, there is a finite index subgroup~$\Gamma$ of $ \mathrm{Mod}(S_g)/\mathrm{Tor}(S_g) \simeq…
We examine closed geodesics in the quotient of hyperbolic three space by the discrete group of isometries SL(2,Z[i]). There is a correspondence between closed geodesics in the manifold, the complex continued fractions originally studied by…

In this paper, we consider the dynamical zeta functions of Ruelle and Selberg associated with the geodesic flow of a compact hyperbolic odd dimensional manifold $X$. These functions are initially defined on one complex variable $s$ in some…
Let $\Gamma=PSL(2,Z[i])$ be the Picard group and $H^3$ be the three-dimensional hyperbolic space. We study the Prime Geodesic Theorem for the quotient $\Gamma \setminus H^3$, called the Picard manifold, obtaining an error term of size…
We study the relation between supersymmetry and geometric flows driven by the Bianchi identity for the three-form flux $H$ in heterotic supergravity. We describe how the flow equations can be derived from a functional that appears in a…
Let $\Sigma$ be a compact, orientable surface of negative Euler characteristic, and let $h$ be a complete hyperbolic metric on $\Sigma$. A geodesic curve $\gamma$ in $\Sigma$ is filling, if it cuts the surface into topological disks and…

Right-invariant geodesic flows on manifolds of Lie groups associated with 2-cocycles of corresponding Lie algebras are discussed. Algebra of integrals of motion for magnetic geodesic flows is considered and necessary and sufficient…
In the framework laid down by Matveev and Shevchishin, superintegrability is achieved with one integral linear in the momenta (a Killing vector) and two extra integrals of of any degree above two in the momenta. However these extra…
We construct a Cayley graph $\mathbf{Cay}_S(\Gamma)$ of a hyperbolic group $\Gamma$ such that there are elements $g,h\in\Gamma$ and a point $\gamma \in \partial_\infty\Gamma = \partial_\infty\mathbf{Cay}_S(\Gamma)$ such that the sets…

A group $\Gamma$ with a family of subgroups $\mathbb{P}$ is relatively hyperbolic if $\Gamma$ admits a cusp-uniform action on a proper $\delta$--hyperbolic space. We show that any two such spaces for a given group pair are quasi-isometric,…
For $\Gamma$ a cofinite Kleinian group acting on $\mathbb{H}^3$, we study the Prime Geodesic Theorem on $M=\Gamma \backslash \mathbb{H}^3$, which asks about the asymptotic behaviour of lengths of primitive closed geodesics (prime geodesics)…
We study the twisted cohomoligical equation over the geodesic flow on $SL(2,\mathbb{R})/\Gamma$. We characterize the obstructions to solving the twisted cohomological equation, construct smooth solution and obtain the tame Sobolev estimates…
