We prove that the geodesic flow of a Kupka-Smale riemannian metric on a closed surface has homoclinic orbits for all of its hyperbolic closed geodesics.

Recall that two geodesics in a negatively curved surface $S$ are of the same type if their free homotopy classes differ by a homeomorphism of the surface. In this note we study the distribution in the unit tangent bundle of the geodesics of…

Here we study the behaviour of the horocyclic orbit of a vector on the unit tangent bundle of a geometrically infinite surface with variable negative curvature, when the corresponding geodesic ray is almost minimizing and the injectivity…

We define an evolution of multiple particles on a discrete manifold $G$. Each particle alone moves on geodesics and particles can interact if they are on the same facet. They move deterministically and reversibly on the frame bundle $P$ of…

It is known that for a variety of choices of metrics, including the standard bottleneck distance, the space of persistence diagrams admits geodesics. Typically these existence results produce geodesics that have the form of a convex…

We define singular points of the first kind and singular points of the second kind as singular points of mappings between surfaces. Typical examples of these singular points are fold singular points and cusp singular points, respectively.…

This note is about a type of quantitative density of closed geodesics on closed hyperbolic surfaces. The main results are upper bounds on the length of the shortest closed geodesic that $\varepsilon$-fills the surface.

We study singular hypersurfaces in tensor multi-scalar theories of gravity. We derive in a distributional and then in an intrinsic way, the general equations of junction valid for all types of hypersurfaces, in particular for lightlike…

Equations of the magnetization dynamics are derived for an arbitrary curved 2D surface. General static solutions are obtained in the limit of a strong anisotropy of both signs (easy-surface and easy-normal cases). It is shown that the…

We prove that rigid representations of the fundamental group of a surface into the group of oreintation-preserving homeomorphisms of the circle are geometric, thereby establishing a converse statement of a theorem by the first author.

An overview is given on those theoretical gravitational lensing results that can be formulated in a spacetime setting, without assuming that the gravitational fields are weak and that the bending angles are small. The first part is devoted…

In this paper we study geodesics on adjoint orbits of $SL(n,\mathbb{R})$ equipped with $SO(n)$-invariant metrics (maximal compact subgroup). Our main technique is translate this problem into a geometric problem in the tangent bundle of…

We present a local classification of smooth projective surfaces in 3-space via projective transformations in accordance with singularity types of central projections up to codimension 4. We also discuss relations between our classification…

Magnetic fields are constrained by the geometry and location of their sources, limiting the ability to freely tailor their spatial distribution. We introduce a general framework to passively convert the magnetic field generated by arbitrary…

We briefly review the recent developments in magnetohydrodynamics, which in particular deal with the evolution of magnetic fields in turbulent plasmas. We especially emphasize (i) the necessity of renormalizing equations of motion in…

Conformal gravity has been proposed as an alternative theory of gravity which can account for flat galactic rotation curves without recourse to copious quantities of dark matter. However it was shown that for the usual choice of the metric,…
