We study the local dynamics near general unstable traveling waves of the 3D Gross-Pitaevskii equation in the energy space by constructing smooth local invariant center-stable, center-unstable and center manifolds. We also prove that (i) the…
It is known that volume hyperbolicity (partial hyperbolicity and uniform expansion or contraction of the volume in the extremal bundles) is a necessary condition for robust transitivity or robust chain recurrence hence for tameness. In this…
In this paper we introduce the hyperbolic mean curvature flow and prove that the corresponding system of partial differential equations are strictly hyperbolic, and based on this, we show that this flow admits a unique short-time smooth…
Turbulent flows are strongly chaotic and unpredictable, with a Lyapunov exponent that increases with the Reynolds number. Here, we study the chaoticity of the Surface Quasi-geostrophic system, a two-dimensional model for geophysical flows…
We show that if M is a hyperbolic 3-manifold which admits a quasigeodesic flow, then pi_1(M) acts faithfully on a universal circle by homeomorphisms, and preserves a pair of invariant laminations of this circle. As a corollary, we show that…
A new important relation between fluid mechanics and differential geometry is established. We study smooth steady solutions to the Euler equations with the additional property: the velocity vector is orthogonal to the gradient of the…
In this paper, the equilibrium states for a non-degenerate $ C^2 $ partially hyperbolic endomorphism $f$ on a closed Riemannian manifold $M$ with one-dimensional center bundle are investigated. Applying the criterion of Climenhaga-Thompson…
We outline the flexibility program in smooth dynamics, focusing on flexibility of Lyapunov exponents for volume-preserving diffeomorphisms. We prove flexibility results for Anosov diffeomorphisms admitting dominated splittings into…
In this paper, we are concerned with studying the existence of invariant complex manifolds of two-dimensional holomorphic systems. From the geometric singular perturbation theory we know that if a slow-fast system has associated a normally…
We are interested in the geometry of the group $\mathcal{D}_q(M)$ of diffeomorphisms preserving a contact form $\theta$ on a manifold $M$. We define a Riemannian metric on $\mathcal{D}_q(M)$, compute the corresponding geodesic equation, and…
This paper is devoted to the geometric analysis of the incompressible averaged Euler equations on compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary. The equation also coincides with the model for a second-grade non-Newtonian fluid. We study the…
We study chaotic orbits of conservative low--dimensional maps and present numerical results showing that the probability density functions (pdfs) of the sum of $N$ iterates in the large $N$ limit exhibit very interesting time-evolving…
In this paper, we obtain the existence criteria for a geometic flow on noncompact affine Riemannian manifolds. Our results can be regarded as a real version of Lee-Tam [19]. As an application, we prove that a complete noncompact Hessian…
We show that time-one maps of transitive Anosov flows of compact manifolds are accumulated by diffeomorphisms robustly satisfying the following dichotomy: either all of the measures of maximal entropy are non-hyperbolic, or there are…
We present a simple, computation free and geometrical proof of the following classical result: for a diffeomorphism of a manifold, any compact submanifold which is invariant and normally hyperbolic persists under small perturbations of the…
We derive conditions for a nonholonomic system subject to nonlinear constraints (obeying Chetaev's rule) to preserve a smooth volume form. When applied to affine constraints, these conditions dictate that a basic invariant density exists if…
We consider parabolic flows on 3-dimensional manifolds which are renormalized by circle extensions of Anosov diffeormorphisms. This class of flows includes nilflows on the Heisenberg nilmanifold which are renormalized by partially…

We consider smooth partially hyperbolic volume preserving Z^k actions on smooth manifolds, with uniformly compact center foliation. We show that under certain irreducibility condition on the action, bunching and uniform quasiconformality…
