We consider effective actions of a compact torus $T^{n-1}$ on an even-dimensional smooth manifold $M^{2n}$ with isolated fixed points. We prove that under certain conditions on weights of tangent representations, the orbit space is a…

We develop geometry-of-numbers methods to count orbits in prehomogeneous vector spaces having bounded invariants over any global field. As our primary example, we apply these techniques to determine, for any base global field $F$, the…

Orbits of test particles and light rays are an important tool to study the properties of space-time metrics. Here we systematically study the properties of the gravitational field of a globally regular magnetic monopole in terms of the…

We introduce topological invariants of semi-decompositions (e.g. filtrations, semi-group actions, multi-valued dynamical systems, combinatorial dynamical systems) on a topological space to analyze semi-decompositions from a dynamical…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic not equal to $2,3$, $\mathbb{O}$ an octonion over $k$ and $\mathcal{J}$ the exceptional Jordan algebra defined by $\mathbb{O}$. We consider the prehomogeneous vector space $(G,V)$ where $G=GE_6\times…

Let $S$ be a closed surface of genus $g\geq 1$, furnished with an area form $\omega$. We show that there exists an open and dense set ${\mathcal O_r}$ of the space of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of class $C^r$, $1\leq r\leq\infty$, endowed…

This paper studies wavelet coorbit spaces on disconnected local fields $K$, associated to the quasi-regular representation of $G = K \rtimes K^*$ acting on $L^2(K)$. We show that coorbit space theory applies in this context, and identify…

We address the problem of counting periodic orbits of vector fields on smooth closed manifolds. The space of non-constant periodic orbits is enlarged to a complete space by adding the ghost orbits, which are decorations of the zeros of…

We study in detail the form of the orbits in integrable generalized H\'enon-Heiles systems with Hamiltonians of the form $H = \frac{1}{2}(\dot{x}^2 + Ax^2 + \dot{y}^2 + By^2) + \epsilon(xy^2 + \alpha x^3).$ In particular, we focus on the…

A line field on a manifold is a smooth map which assigns a tangent line to all but a finite number of points of the manifold. As such, it can be seen as a generalization of vector fields. They model a number of geometric and physical…

A global vector field $v$ on a "spacetime" differentiable manifold $\mathrm{V}$, of dimension $N+1$, defines a congruence of world lines: the maximal integral curves of $v$, or orbits. The associated global space $\mathrm{N}\_v$ is the set…
