In this paper, we study the behavior of the local Floer homology of an isolated fixed point and the growth of the action gap under iterations. To be more specific, we prove that an isolated fixed point of a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism…

We construct topological invariants, called abstract weak orbit spaces, of flows and homeomorphisms on topological spaces, to describe both gradient dynamics and recurrent dynamics. In particular, the abstract weak orbit spaces of flows on…

We say that a fixed point of a diffeomorphism is non-degenerate if 1 is not an eigenvalue of the linearization at the fixed point. We use pseudo-holomorphic curves techniques to prove the following: the inclusion map $$i: \text{Diff} ^{1}…

In this article, we study the question of existence of leafwise intersection points for contact manifolds which are not necessarily of restricted contact type. Moreover we can find a leafwise intersection point on the symplectization for…

Let $(M,\omega)$ be a symplectic manifold, $N\subseteq M$ a coisotropic submanifold, and $\Sigma$ a compact oriented (real) surface. I define a natural Maslov index for each continuous map $u:\Sigma\to M$ that sends every connected…

Let $\varphi$ be a univalent non-elliptic self-map of the unit disc $\mathbb D$ and let $(\psi_{t})$ be a continuous one-parameter semigroup of holomorphic functions in $\mathbb D$ such that $\psi_{1}\neq\mathrm{id}_{\mathbb D}$ commutes…

This paper studies the question of when a loop $\phi$ in the group Symp$(M,\omega)$ of symplectomorphisms of a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ is isotopic to a loop that is generated by a time-dependent Hamiltonian function. (Loops with…

We consider area preserving maps of surfaces and extend Mather's result on the equality of the closure of the four branches of saddles. He assumed elliptic fixed points to be Moser stable, while we require only that the derivative at this…

We show a $C^r$ connecting lemma for area-preserving surface diffeomorphisms and for periodic Hamiltonian on surfaces. We prove that for a generic $C^r$, $r=1, 2, ...$, $\infty$, area-preserving diffeomorphism on a compact orientable…

It is shown, for a given graph group $G$, that the fixed point subgroup Fix$\,\varphi$ is finitely generated for every endomorphism $\varphi$ of $G$ if and only if $G$ is a free product of free abelian groups. The same conditions hold for…
