We consider a geodesic flow on a compact manifold endowed with a Riemannian (or Finsler, or Lorentz) metric satisfying some generic, explicit conditions. We couple the geodesic flow with a time-dependent potential, driven by an external…

For manifolds Euclidian at infinity and compact perturbations of the Laplacian, we show that under assumptions involving hyperbolicity of the classical flow on the trapped set and its period spectrum, there are strips below the real axis…

In the first half of the paper we construct a Morse-type theory on certain spaces of braid diagrams. We define a topological invariant of closed positive braids which is correlated with the existence of invariant sets of parabolic flows…

We introduce a new geometric flow of Hermitian metrics which evolves an initial metric along the second derivative of the Chern scalar curvature. The flow depends on the choice of a background metric, it always reduces to a scalar equation…

Qualitative behavior of Bach flow is established on compact four-dimensional locally homogeneous product manifolds. This is achieved by lifting to the homogeneous universal cover and, in most cases, capitalizing on the resultant group…
