Generically, the set of points along which two non-singular vector fields on the three-sphere are positively (resp. negatively) collinear form a link. We prove that the two vector fields are homotopic if and only if the linking number of…

We demonstrate the existence of smooth three-dimensional vector fields where the cross product between the vector field and its curl is balanced by the gradient of a smooth function, with toroidal level sets that are not invariant under…

We study nontrivial entropy invariants in the class of parabolic flows on homogeneous spaces, quasi-unipotent flows. We show that topological complexity (ie, slow entropy) can be computed directly from the Jordan block structure of the…

This paper introduces the notions of vector field and flow on a general differentiable stack. Our main theorem states that the flow of a vector field on a compact proper differentiable stack exists and is unique up to a uniquely determined…

3D modifications to the well-studied 2D flow topology around an embedded planet have the potential to resolve long-standing problems in planet formation theory. We present a detailed analysis of the 3D isothermal flow field around a 5…

We study various types of shadowing properties and their implication for C1 generic vector fields. We show that, generically, any of the following three hypotheses implies that an isolated set is topologically transitive and hyperbolic: (i)…

On a smooth compact Riemannian manifold without boundary, we construct a finite dimensional cohomological complex of currents that are invariant by an Axiom A flow verifying Smale's transversality assumptions. The cohomology of that complex…

In 1946, M. Morse proposed a conjecture that an analytic topologically transitive systems is metrically transitive. We prove this Morse conjecture for flows on a closed orientable surface of negative Euler characteristic. As a consequence,…

For Morse-Smale pairs on a smooth, closed manifold the Morse-Smale-Witten chain complex can be defined. The associated Morse homology is isomorphic to the singular homology of the manifold and yields the classical Morse relations for Morse…

Stationary, inviscid, axi-symmetric, rotating, transonic accretion flow has been studied in a general relativistic framework, in the Schwarzschild metric; for three different flow geometries - under both polytropic and isothermal…

Using the wrapped Floer homology, we prove the existence of consecutive collisions at the primaries in the circular restricted three-body problem. We also prove the existence of a symmetric periodic orbit. These existence results are…

We prove: "If $M$ is a compact hypersurface of the hyperbolic space, convex by horospheres and evolving by the volume preserving mean curvature flow, then it flows for all time, convexity by horospheres is preserved and the flow converges,…

An attractor $\Lambda$ for a 3-vector field $X$ is singular-hyperbolic if all its singularities are hyperbolic and it is partially hyperbolic with volume expanding central direction. We prove that $C^{1+\alpha}$ singular-hyperbolic…

In this paper we build Non-singular Morse-Smale flows on S^3 with unknotted and unlinked saddle orbits by identifying fat round handles along their boundaries. This way of building the flows enables to get their phase portraits. We also…

Araujo proved in his thesis \cite{A} that a $C^1$ generic surface diffeomorphism has either infinitely many sinks (i.e. attracting periodic orbits) or finitely many hyperbolic attractors with full Lebesgue measure basin. The goal of this…

In this paper, we study transversely holomorphic partially hyperbolic flows, i.e. those whose holonomy pseudo-group is given by biholomorphic maps. We prove in the seven-dimensional case that under the assumption that the subcenter…

Topological equivalence of Morse-Smale flows without fixed points (NMS-flows) under assumptions of different generalities was studied in a number of papers. In some cases when the number of periodic orbits is small, it is possible to give…

We prove that for any $C^r$ diffeomorphism, $f$, of a compact manifold of dimension $d>2$, $1\leq r\leq \infty$, admitting a transverse homoclinic intersection, we can find a $C^1$-open neighborhood of $f$ containing a $C^1$-open and…

We consider possible generation of singularities of a vector field transported by diffeomorphisms with derivatives of uniformly bounded determinants. A particular case of volume preserving diffeomrphism is the most important, since it has…

Dilation surfaces are generalizations of translation surfaces where the transition maps of the atlas are translations and homotheties with a positive ratio. In contrast with translation surfaces, the directional flow on dilation surfaces…
