Given a continuous linear cocycle A over a homeomorphism f of a compact metric space X, we investigate its set R of Lyapunov-Perron regular points, that is, the collection of trajectories of f that obey the conclusions of the Multiplicative…
We consider linear cocycles taking values in $\textup{SL}_d(\mathbb{R})$ driven by homeomorphic transformations of a smooth manifold, in discrete and continuous time. We show that any discrete-time cocycle can be extended to a…
We prove that if the Lyapunov spectrum of the Kontsevich-Zorich cocycle over an affine SL$(2,\mathbb{R})$-invariant submanifold is completely degenerate, i.e. $\lambda_2 = \cdots = \lambda_g = 0$, then the submanifold must be an arithmetic…
New elementary, self-contained proofs are presented for the topological and the smooth classification theorems of linear flows on finite-dimensional normed spaces. The arguments, and the examples that accompany them, highlight the…
For a conformal vector field on a closed, real-analytic, Lorentzian manifold we prove that the flow is locally isometric -- that it preserves a metric in the conformal class on a neighborhood of any point -- or the metric is everywhere…
The goal of this paper is twofold: (i) define a symplectic Khovanov type homology for a transverse link in a fibered closed $3$-manifold $M$ (with an auxiliary choice of a homotopy class of loops that intersect each fiber once) and (ii)…
`Loop-fusion cohomology' is defined on the continuous loop space of a manifold in terms of \vCech cochains satisfying two multiplicative conditions with respect to the fusion and figure-of-eight products on loops. The main result is that…
This paper is concerned with the Lyapunov spectrum for measurable cocycles over an ergodic pmp system taking values in semi-simple real Lie groups. We prove simplicity of the Lyapunov spectrum and its continuity under certain perturbations…
In \cite{Ch91a} it was shown that the billiard ball map for the periodic Lorentz gas has infinite topological entropy. In this article we study the set of points with infinite Lyapunov exponents. Using the cell structure developed in…
In this work, we present a comprehensive study of the relationship among uniform Lyapunov exponents, the Liouville trace formula, and adapted metrics for cocycles in Hilbert spaces. First, we prove that uniform Lyapunov exponents can be…
We study the regularity of the Lyapunov exponent for quasi-periodic cocycles $(T_\omega, A)$ where $T_\omega$ is an irrational rotation $x\to x+ 2\pi\omega$ on $\SS^1$ and $A\in {\cal C}^l(\SS^1, SL(2,\mathbb{R}))$, $0\le l\le \infty$. For…
We prove the Zorich-Kontsevich conjecture that the non-trivial Lyapunov exponents of the Teichm\"uller flow on (any connected component of a stratum of) the moduli space of Abelian differentials on compact Riemann surfaces are all distinct.…
We consider one-step cocycles of $2 \times 2$ matrices, and we are interested in their Lyapunov-optimizing measures, i.e., invariant probability measures that maximize or minimize a Lyapunov exponent. If the cocycle is dominated, that is,…
We present an extension of the notion of infinitesimal Lyapunov function to singular flows, and from this technique we deduce a characterization of partial/sectional hyperbolic sets. In absence of singularities, we can also characterize…
We prove that for any closed manifold of dimension 3 or greater that there is an open set of smooth flows that have a hyperbolic set that is not contained in a locally maximal one. Additionally, we show that the stabilization of the…
In this paper, we present a class of random Schr\"odinger cocycles showing that, for random cocycles with non-compact support, the presence of certain finite moment conditions is essential for establishing a specific modulus of continuity…
We prove hyperbolic 3-manifolds are geometrically inflexible: a unit quasiconformal deformation of a Kleinian group extends to an equivariant bi-Lipschitz diffeomorphism between quotients whose pointwise bi-Lipschitz constant decays…
Let $M$ be an even-dimensional, oriented closed manifold. We show that the restriction of a singular Riemannian flow on $M$ to a small tubular neighborhood of each connected component of its singular stratum is foliated-diffeomorphic to an…
The present work analyzes the distribution function of the finite scale local Lyapunov exponent of a pair fluid particles trajectories in fully developed incompressible homogeneous isotropic turbulence. According to the hypothesis of fully…
Under mild assumptions, we show that the unique subadditive equilibrium states for fiber-bunched cocycles are Bernoulli. We achieve this by showing these equilibrium states are absolutely continuous with respect to a product measure, and…
