In this paper, we define a class of new geometric flows on a complete Riemannian manifold. The new flow is related to the generalized (third order) Landau-Lifishitz equation. On the other hand it could be thought of a special case of the…

Manifolds discovered by machine learning models provide a compact representation of the underlying data. Geodesics on these manifolds define locally length-minimising curves and provide a notion of distance, which are key for reduced-order…

For analytic negatively curved Riemannian manifold with analytic strictly convex boundary, we show that the scattering map for the geodesic flow determines the manifold up to isometry. In particular one recovers both the topology and the…
The usual notion of set-convexity, valid in the classical Euclidean context, metamorphoses into several distinct convexity types in the more general Riemannian setting. By studying this phenomenon in reverse, we characterize complete…
A new technique for the study of geodesic connectedness in a class of Lorentzian manifolds is introduced. It is based on arguments of Brouwer's topological degree for the solution of functional equations. It is shown to be very useful for…

We introduce a parabolic flow of almost Kahler structures, providing an approach to constructing canonical geometric structures on symplectic manifolds. We exhibit this flow as one of a family of parabolic flows of almost Hermitian…
Using the works of Ma\~n\'e \cite{Ma} and Paternain \cite{Pat} we study the distribution of geodesic arcs with respect to equilibrium states of the geodesic flow on a closed manifold, equipped with a $\mathcal{C}^{\infty}$ Riemannian…
We study the geodesic flow on the normal line congruence of a minimal surface in ${\Bbb{R}}^3$ induced by the neutral K\"ahler metric on the space of oriented lines. The metric is lorentz with isolated degenerate points and the flow is…
We explore some properties of flows with strongly adapted 1-forms, originally discovered in (Tao 2017), which can be used to embed Turing machines into dynamical systems. In particular, we discuss some relations to geodesible flows, and…
We bound the derivative of complex length of a geodesic under variation of the projective structure on a closed surface in terms of the norm of the Schwarzian in a neighborhood of the geodesic. One application is to cone-manifold…
The paper is a study of geodesic in two-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian metrics. Firstly, the local properties of geodesics in a neighborhood of generic parabolic points are investigated. The equation of the geodesic flow has singularities at…
The formalism for describing a metric and the corresponding scalar in terms of multipole moments has recently been developed for scalar-tensor theories. We take advantage of this formalism in order to obtain expressions for the observables…
We approach the problem of finding obstructions to curvature distinguished Riemannian metrics by considering Lorentzian metrics to which they are dual in a suitable sense. Obstructions to the latter then yield obstructions to the former.…
We give a formula for the topological pressure of the geodesic flow of a compact rank 1 manifold in terms of the growth of the number of closed hyperbolic (rank 1) geodesics. We derive an equidistribution result for these geodesics with…
In the pseudo-Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1,k}$, we consider the mean curvature flow of $n$-dimensional spacelike submanifolds with spacelike codimension one and arbitrary timelike codimension $k$. We show that if the initial submanifold…
