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…
Let $H: \mathbb{R}^4 \to \mathbb{R}$ be any smooth function. This article introduces some arguments for extracting dynamical information about the Hamiltonian flow of $H$ from high-dimensional families of closed holomorphic curves. We work…
The basic cohomology of a Riemannian foliation on a complete manifold with all leaves closed is the cohomology of the leaf space. In this paper we introduce various methods to compute the basic cohomology in the presence of both closed and…
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…
Consider the set $\chi^0_{\mathrm{nw}}$ of non-wandering continuous flows on a closed surface. Then such a flow can be approximated by regular non-wandering flows without heteroclinic connections nor locally dense orbits in…
In this paper, we present a $C^0$-fragmentation property for Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms. More precisely, it is known that for a given open covering $\mathcal{U}$ of a compact symplectic surface we can write each $C^0$-small enough…
We show that any simply connected topological closed $4$-manifold punctured along any compact, totally disconnected tame subset $\Lambda$ admits a continuum of smoothings which are not diffeomorphic to any leaf of a $C^{1,0}$ codimension…
A parallel lightlike vector field on a Lorentzian manifold $X$ naturally defines a foliation $\mathcal{F}$ of codimension one. If either all leaves of $\mathcal{F}$ are compact or $X$ itself is compact admitting a compact leaf and the…
Let M be a possibly non compact smooth manifold. We study genericity in the C^k-topology (3<=k<=+infty) of nondegeneracy properties of semi-Riemannian geodesic flows on M. Namely, we prove a new version of the Bumpy Metric Theorem for a…
We consider a closed convex set $C$ in a separable, infinite-dimensional Hilbert space and endow the set $\mathcal{N}(C)$ of nonexpansive self-mappings on $C$ with the topology of pointwise convergence. We introduce the notion of a somewhat…
Let (M,w) be a compact symplectic 2n-manifold, and g a Riemannian metric on M compatible with w. For instance, g could be Kahler, with Kahler form w. Consider compact Lagrangian submanifolds L of M. We call L Hamiltonian stationary, or…
We develop the theory of spectral invariants in periodic Floer homology (PFH) of area-preserving surface diffeomorphisms. We use this theory to prove $C^\infty$ closing lemmas for certain Hamiltonian isotopy classes of area-preserving…
