We study expansive measures for continuous flows without fixed points on compact metric spaces. We provide a new characterization of expansive measures through dynamical balls that, in contrast to the dynamical balls considered in [\emph{J.…
We define a class of geometric flows on a complete K\"ahler manifold to unify some physical and mechanical models such as the motion equations of vortex filament, complex-valued mKdV equations, derivative nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations…

We develop a geometric formulation of fluid dynamics, valid on arbitrary Riemannian manifolds, that regards the momentum-flux and stress tensors as 1-form valued 2-forms, and their divergence as a covariant exterior derivative. We review…
Steady shearing and planar extension are commonly viewed as two distinct types of flow field, especially in the context of probing the rheology of complex fluids. By leveraging the kinematic equivalence between the two flows, we derive an…
In this paper, we prove that finite-dimensional topological flows without fixed points and having a countable number of periodic orbits, have the small flow boundary property. This enables us to answer positively a question of Bowen and…
We discuss $(K,N)$-convexity and gradient flows for $(K,N)$-convex functionals on metric spaces, in the case of real $K$ and negative $N$. In this generality, it is necessary to consider functionals unbounded from below and/or above,…

The question on expansion of moving volume inside of a smooth flow of the compressible liquid is under consideration. We find a condition on initial data such that if it holds, then within a finite time either the boundary of the moving…
We introduce distinct definitions of local stable/unstable sets for flows without fixed points, namely, kinematic, geometric, and sectionally geometric, and discuss relations between them. We prove the existence of continua with a uniform…
We investigate the effect of flow kinematics on the extensional viscosity of dilute polymer solutions by conducting dissipative particle dynamics simulations under uniaxial, planar, and biaxial extensional flows. At high extension rates,…
Models for fluid deformable surfaces provide valid theories to describe the dynamics of thin fluidic sheets of soft materials. To use such models in morphogenesis and development requires to incorporate active forces. We consider active…
We introduce a new version of expansiveness for flows. Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold without boundary and $X$ be a $C^1$ vector field on $M$ that generates a flow $\varphi_t$ on $M$. We call $X$ {\it rescaling expansive} on a…
Mean curvature flows of hypersurfaces have been extensively studied and there are various different approaches and many beautiful results. However, relatively little is known about mean curvature flows of submanifolds of higher…

We prove here that given a proper isometric action $K\times M\to M$ on a complete Riemannian manifold $M$ then every continuous isometric flow on the orbit space $M/K$ is smooth, i.e., it is the projection of an $K$-equivariant smooth flow…
In this note, we survey recent advances in the study of dynamical properties of the space of surfaces with constant curvature in three-dimensional manifolds of negative sectional curvature. We interpret this space as a two-dimensional…
This paper considers a mathematical model of steady flows of an inviscid and incompressible fluid moving in the azimuthal direction. The water density varies with depth and the waves are propagating under the force of gravity, over a flat…
