In this paper we relate the study of actions of discrete groups over connected manifolds to that of their orbit spaces seen as differentiable stacks. We show that the orbit stack of a discrete dynamical system on a simply connected manifold…

We study the $J-$holomorphic curves in the symplectization of the contact manifolds and prove that there exists at least one periodic Reeb orbits in any closed contact manifold with any contact form by using the well-known Gromov's…

Let A be a finitely generated associative algebra over an algebraically closed field. We characterize the finite dimensional modules over A whose orbit closures are regular varieties.

We prove metric rigidity for complete manifolds supporting solutions of certain second order differential systems, thus extending classical works on a characterization of space-forms. In the route, we also discover new characterizations of…

We consider the standard Darboux space equipped with the radial symmetric contact form. We study co-orientation preserving contactomorphisms between relatively compact domains up to the boundary. We determine the contactomorphism classes…

In this paper, we will study the statistical behaviors of orbits. Firstly, we will show that for a dynamical systems have the shadowing property or almost specification property, the set of nonrecurrent points has full topological entropy.…

A one-parameter family of time-reversible systems on $\mathbb{T}^3$ is considered. It is shown that the dynamics is not conservative, namely the attractor and repeller intersect but not coincide. We explain this as the manifestation of the…

We study dynamics in a neighborhood of a nonhyperbolic fixed point or an irreducible homoclinic tangent point. General type conditions for the existence of infinite sets of periodic points are obtained. A new method, based on the study of…

We deal with rigidity results for compact gradient Einstein-type manifolds with nonempty boundaries. As a result, we obtain new characterizations for hemispheres and geodesic balls in simply connected space forms. In dimensions three and…

In this work we prove that for a compact odd-dimensional orbifold its Euler characteristic is half of the Euler characteristic of its boundary.

The classical approach to the study of dynamical systems consists in representing the dynamics of the system in the form of a "source-sink", that means identifying an attractor-repeller pair, which are attractor-repellent sets for all other…

We characterize all possible relative positions between a hyperboloid of one sheet and a sphere through the roots of a characteristic polynomial associated to these quadrics. The classification is also suitable for a hyperboloid and a…

It is shown how regular model sets can be characterized in terms of regularity properties of their associated dynamical systems. The proof proceeds in two steps. First, we characterize regular model sets in terms of a certain map $\beta$…

We survey some results on the existence (and non-existence) of periodic Reeb orbits on contact manifolds, both in the open and closed case. We place these statements in the context of Finsler geometry by including a proof of the folklore…

We characterize which closed Reeb orbits of a dynamically convex contact form on the 3-sphere bound disk-like global surfaces of section for the Reeb flow, without any genericity assumptions. We show that these global surfaces of section…

Parallel to the main results of [13] and [14], which explore the equivalence between prox-regularity, the exterior sphere condition, and $S$-convexity, we present novel characterizations of the $r$-strong convexity property, namely, of the…

We apply our earlier work on the higher-dimensional analogue of the Mumford conjecture to two questions. Inspired by work of Ebert we prove non-triviality of certain characteristic classes of bundles of smooth closed manifolds. Inspired by…

In this paper we prove the existence of infinitely many closed Reeb orbits for a certain class of contact manifolds. This result can be viewed as a contact analogue of the Hamiltonian Conley conjecture. The manifolds for which the contact…

We study the classical motion in bidimensional polygonal billiards on the sphere. In particular we investigate the dynamics in tiling and generic rational and irrational equilateral triangles. Unlike the plane or the negative curvature…

We show that the existence of one simple closed Reeb orbit of a particular type (a symplectically degenerate maximum) forces the Reeb flow to have infinitely many periodic orbits. We use this result to give a different proof of a recent…
