We show that for a contact Anosov flow on a compact manifold $ M $, the solutions to $ \partial_t u + X u = \nu \Delta u $, $ \nu > 0 $, where $ X $ is the generator of the flow and $ \Delta $, a (negative) Laplacian for some Riemannian…
A geometric flow on $6$-dimensional symplectic manifolds is introduced which is motivated by supersymmetric compactifications of the Type IIA string. The underlying structure turns out to be SU(3) holonomy, but with respect to the projected…
In this article, we study the dynamics of geodesic flows on Riemannian (not necessarily compact) manifolds with no conjugate points. We prove the Anosov Closing Lemma, the local product structure, and the transitivity of the geodesic flows…
Every pseudo-Anosov flow $\phi$ in a closed $3$-manifold $M$ gives rise to an action of $\pi_1(M)$ on a circle $S^{1}_{\infty}(\phi)$ from infinity \cite{Fen12}, with a pair of invariant \emph{almost} laminations. From certain actions on…
We show that every pseudo-Anosov flow on a graph manifold is almost equivalent, i.e. orbit equivalent in the complement of a finite collection of closed orbits, to a totally periodic pseudo-Anosov flow or a suspension Anosov flow. The proof…
We study ergodic averages for a class of pseudodifferential operators on the flat N-dimensional torus with respect to the Schr\"odinger evolution. The later can be consider a quantization of the geodesic flow on $\bT^N$. We prove that, up…
The goal of this paper is to explore the relationship between the geometric properties of an Anosov flow on a closed manifold $M$ and the analytic properties of its infinitesimal generator $X$ as a linear operator on the space of smooth…
We consider a family of operators connected with the geodesic flow on the modular surface. We show certain spectral information is retained after expanding their domain to the space of $\alpha$-H\"older continuous functions on the unit…
In this paper we study the ergodic theory and thermodynamic formalism of the geodesic flow on non-compact pinched negatively curved manifolds. We consider two notions of entropy at infinity, the topological and the measure theoretic entropy…
We are motivated by a conjecture of A. and S. Katok to study the smooth cohomologies of a family of Weyl chamber flows. The conjecture is a natural generalization of the Livshitz Theorem to Anosov actions by higher-rank abelian groups; it…
Given a general pseudo-Anosov flow in a three manifold, the orbit space of the lifted flow to the universal cover is homeomorphic to an open disk. We compactify this orbit space with an ideal circle boundary. If there are no perfect fits…
We evaluate zeta-functions $\zeta(s)$ at $s=0$ for invariant non-minimal 2nd-order vector and tensor operators defined on maximally symmetric even dimensional spaces. We decompose the operators into their irreducible parts and obtain their…
This article deals with applications of Voronin's universality theorem for the Riemann zeta-function $\zeta$. Among other results we prove that every plane smooth curve appears up to a small error in the curve generated by the values…
Rotation vectors, as defined for homeomorphisms of the torus that are isotopic to the identity, are generalized to such homeomorphisms of any complete Riemannian manifold with non-positive sectional curvature. These generalized rotation…
By the second mean-value theorem of calculus (Gauss-Bonnet theorem) we prove that the class of functions ${\mit \Xi}(z)$ with an integral representation of the form $\int_{0}^{+\infty}du\,{\mit \Omega}(u)\,{\rm ch}(uz)$ with a real-valued…
We consider Anosov flows on closed 3-manifolds preserving a volume form $\Omega$. Following Dyatlov and Zworski (2017) we study spaces of invariant distributions with values in the bundle of exterior forms whose wavefront set is contained…
We study the fluctuations in the distribution of zeros of zeta functions of a family of hyperelliptic curves defined over a fixed finite field, in the limit of large genus. According to the Riemann Hypothesis for curves, the zeros all lie…
These notes are based on three lectures given by the second author at Copenhagen University (October 2009) and at Aarhus University, Denmark (December 2009). We mostly present here a survey of results of Dieter Mayer on relations between…
We study mean curvature flows in a warped product manifold defined by a closed Riemannian manifold and $\mathbb{R}$. In such a warped product manifold, we can define the notion of a graph, called a geodesic graph. We prove that the curve…
We apply the matching functions technique in the setting of contact Anosov flows which satisfy a bunching assumption. This allows us to generalize the 3-dimensional rigidity result of Feldman-Ornstein~\cite{FO}. Namely, we show that if two…
