A smooth Anosov flow on a closed oriented three manifold $M$ gives rise to a Liouville structure on the four manifold $[-1,1]\times M$ which is not Weinstein, by a construction of Mitsumatsu and Hozoori. We call it the associated Anosov…

We investigate rigidity phenomena associated to the stable norm and Mather's $\beta$-function for Riemannian geodesic flows on closed manifolds. Given two metrics $g_1$ and $g_2$, we compare these objects pointwise at individual homology…

We prove that an Anosov flow with $\mathcal{C}^{1}$ stable bundle mixes exponentially whenever the stable and unstable bundles are not jointly integrable. This allows us to show that if a flow is sufficiently close to a volume-preserving…

We show that it is possible to approximate the zeta-function of a curve over a finite field by meromorphic functions which satisfy the same functional equation and moreover satisfy (respectively do not satisfy) the analogue of the Riemann…

We construct symbolic dynamics on sets of full measure (w.r.t. an ergodic measure of positive entropy) for $C^{1+\epsilon}$ flows on compact smooth three-dimensional manifolds. One consequence is that the geodesic flow on the unit tangent…

Oseledets regularity functions quantify the deviation of the growth associated with a dynamical system along its Lyapunov bundles from the corresponding uniform exponential growth. Precise degree of regularity of these functions is unknown.…

In a neighborhood of a hyperbolic periodic orbit of a volume-preserving flow on a manifold of dimension 3, we define and show the existence of a normal form for the generator of the flow that encodes the dynamics. If the flow is a contact…

In the 70's Igusa developed a uniform theory for local zeta functions and oscillatory integrals attached to polynomials with coefficients in a local field of characteristic zero. In the present article this theory is extended to the case of…

An example of a real-analytic metric on a compact manifold whose geodesic flow is Liouville integrable by $C^\infty$ functions and has positive topological entropy is constructed.

We employ the curve shortening flow to establish three new results on the dynamics of geodesic flows of closed Riemannian surfaces. The first one is the stability, under $C^0$-small perturbations of the Riemannian metric, of certain flat…

To a given real polynomial function f $\in$ R[x1, . . . , x d ], we associate real topological zeta functions Ztop,0(f\,; s) and Z $\pm$ top,0 (f\,; s) $\in$ Q(s), analogous to the topological zeta function of Denef and Loeser in the…

The Argand diagram is used to display some characteristics of the Riemann Zeta function. The zeros of the Zeta function on the complex plane give rise to an infinite sequence of closed loops, all passing through the origin of the diagram.…

We present a characterization for the rotational soliton for the curve shortening flow (CSF) on the revolution surfaces of $\mathbb{R}^3$. Furthermore, we describe the behavior of such curves by showing that the two ends of each open curve…

For a connected orientable closed surface $(\Sigma,g)$ of genus $G$ with Anosov geodesic flow, we show the existence of an open subset $U_g$ of finite-dimensional irreducible representations of the fundamental group of its unit tangent…

We describe a general method to prove meromorphic continuation of dynamical zeta functions to the entire complex plane under the condition that the corresponding partition functions are given via a dynamical trace formula from a family of…

We study the effects of externally applied shear flow on a model of suspensions of motors and filaments, via the equations of active hydrodynamics [PRL {\bf 89} (2002) 058101; {\bf 92} (2004) 118101]. In the absence of shear, the…

This paper gives 3 different proofs (independently obtained by the 3 authors) of the following fact: given an Anosov flow on an oriented 3 manifold, the existence of a positive Birkhoff section is equivalent to the fact that the flow is…

We consider the Ruelle zeta function $R(s)$ of a genus $g$ hyperbolic Riemann surface with $n$ punctures and $v$ ramification points. $R(s)$ is equal to $Z(s)/Z(s+1)$, where $Z(s)$ is the Selberg zeta function. The main result of this work…

Any closed, oriented, hyperbolic three-manifold with nontrivial second homology has many quasigeodesic flows, where quasigeodesic means that flow lines are uniformly efficient in measuring distance in relative homotopy classes. The flows…

A {\em sectional-Anosov flow} is a vector field on a compact manifold inwardly transverse to the boundary such that the maximal invariant set is sectional-hyperbolic (in the sense of \cite{mm}). We prove that any $C^2$ transitive…
