The standard notion of NS-NS 3-form flux is lifted to Hitchin's generalized geometry. This generalized flux is given in terms of an integral of a modified Nijenhuis operator over a generalized 3-cycle. Explicitly evaluating the generalized…

The motion of an incompressible fluid in Lagrangian coordinates involves infinitely many symmetries generated by the left Lie algebra of group of volume preserving diffeomorphisms of the three dimensional domain occupied by the fluid.…
Starting with a pseudo-Anosov flow $\varphi$ on a closed hyperbolic $3$-manifold $M$ and an embedded surface $S \subset M$ that is (almost) transverse to $\varphi$, we relate the hyperbolic geometry of $M$ (e.g. volume, circumference, short…
In this paper we study the phenomenon of phase transitions for the geodesic flow on some geometrically finite negatively curved manifolds. We define a class of potentials going slowly to zero through the cusps of $M$ for which the pressure…
We present a new formulation of some basic differential geometric notions on a smooth manifold M, in the setting of nonstandard analysis. In place of classical vector fields, for which one needs to construct the tangent bundle of M, we…

We prove a result allowing to build (transitive or non-transitive) Anosov flows on 3-manifolds by gluing together filtrating neighborhoods of hyperbolic sets. We give several applications; for example: 1. we build a 3-manifold supporting…
For a geodesic flow on a negatively curved Riemannian manifold $M$ and some subset $A\subset T^1M$, we study the limit $A$-exceptional set, that is the set of points whose $\omega$-limit do not intersect $A$. We show that if the topological…
It is known that a bi-orderable group has no generalized torsion element, but the converse does not hold in general. We conjecture that the converse holds for the fundamental groups of 3-manifolds, and verify the conjecture for…
