We show that a self orbit equivalence of a transitive Anosov flow on a $3$-manifold which is homotopic to identity has to either preserve every orbit or the Anosov flow is $\mathbb{R}$-covered and the orbit equivalence has to be of a…
We introduce two tools, dynamical thickening and flow selectors, to overcome the infamous discontinuity of the gradient flow endpoint map near non-degenerate critical points. More precisely, we interpret the stable fibrations of certain…
Poincar\'e-gravity modes described by the shallow water equations in a rotating frame have non-trivial topology, providing a new perspective on the origin of equatorially trapped Kelvin and Yanai waves. We investigate the topology of…
We established existence of periodic Reeb orbits for a large class of tight contact structures on closed 3-manifolds, notably the Stein fillable structures, based on a fundamental theorem of Cliff Taubes on symplectic 4-manifolds.
We provide a new version of the Poincar\'e-Birkhoff theorem for possibly multivalued successor maps associated with planar non-autonomous Hamiltonian systems. As an application, we prove the existence of periodic and subharmonic solutions…
We prove that, for a $C^\infty$-generic contact form $\lambda$ adapted to a given contact distribution on a closed three-manifold, there exists a sequence of periodic Reeb orbits which is equidistributed with respect to $d\lambda$. This is…
Hopf bifurcation in networks of coupled ODEs creates periodic states in which the relative phases of nodes are well defined near bifurcation. When the network is a fully inhomogeneous nearest-neighbour coupled unidirectional ring, and node…
Following our earlier work we argue in detail for the equivalence of the nonlinear $\sigma$ model with Hopf term at~$\theta=\pi/2s$ ~and an interacting spin-s theory. We give an ansatz for spin-s operators in the $\sigma$ model and show the…
In this paper, it is proved that under dynamically convex condition, there exist at least $[\frac{n+1}{2}]$ closed Reeb orbits on a closed contact type hypersurface in $T^*S^n$ enclosing the zero section and bounding a simply connected…
We exhibit orbits of the geodesic flow on a hyperbolic surface with at least one cusp such that every tubular neighborhood contains uncountably many distinct geodesic flow orbits. The proof relies on new phenomena, namely the existence of…
We consider a fixed point free homeomorphsim $h$ of the closed band $B=\R\times[0,1]$ which leaves each leaf of a Reeb foliation on $B$ invariant. Assuming $h$ is the time one of various topological flows, we compare the restriction of the…
For a given smooth $2$-knot in $S^4$, we relate the existence of a smooth Seifert hypersurface of a certain class to the existence of irreducible $ SU(2)$-representations of its knot group. For example, we see that any smooth $2$-knot…
We introduce the notion of a pseudo-Anosov contact structure, which admits a type of singular contact form with pseudo-Anosov Reeb flow. We prove that contact homology detects the free homotopy classes of closed orbits of any pseudo-Anosov…
We study $C^r$ ($5 \le r \le \infty$) diffeomorphisms on closed manifolds of dimension at least three with a heteroclinic cycle between two hyperbolic periodic points. At each point, the unstable direction is one dimensional, and the stable…
In this paper we describe the topological behavior of the geodesic flow for a class of closed 3-manifolds realized as quotients of nonstrictly convex Hilbert geometries, constructed and described explicitly by Benoist. These manifolds are…
In this paper we study the relationship of the Brouwer degree of a vector field with the dynamics of the induced flow. Analogous relations are studied for the index of a vector field. We obtain new forms of the Poincar% \'{e}-Hopf theorem…
We first review our previous work arxiv:1503.02993 [math-ph] where we considered a model for topological recursion based on the Hopf Algebra of planar binary trees of Loday and Ronco and showed that extending this Hopf Algebra by…
In this article, we study the growth rate of Reeb orbits on fiberwise star-shaped hypersurfaces in the cotangent bundle of a closed manifold. We prove that under a suitable topological condition on the base manifold the Reeb flow on any…
In this article, we investigate Reeb dynamics on $b^m$-contact manifolds, previously introduced in [MiO], which are contact away from a hypersurface $Z$ but satisfy certain transversality conditions on $Z$. The study of these contact…
We prove local limit theorems for a cocycle over a semiflow by establishing topological, mixing properties of the associated skew product semiflow. We also establish conditional rational weak mixing of certain skew product semiflows and…
