We show that the geodesic flow and the exponential map of a $C^k$ submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with $k\geq 2$ are of class $C^{k-1}$.

Let \Fc be a holomorphic foliation by Riemann surfaces on a compact K\"ahler surface X. Assume it is generic in the sense that all the singularities are hyperbolic and that the foliation admits no directed positive closed (1,1)-current.…

We show that ergodic flows in noncommutative fully symmetric spaces (associated with a semifinite von Neumann algebra) generated by continuous semigroups of positive Dunford-Schwartz operators and modulated by bounded Besicovitch almost…

We prove the following dichotomy for vector fields in a C1-residual subset of volume-preserving flows: for Lebesgue almost every point all Lyapunov exponents equal to zero or its orbit has a dominated splitting. As a consequence if we have…

We prove that for closed rank 1 manifolds without focal points the equilibrium states are unique for H\"older potentials satisfying the pressure gap condition. In addition, we provide a criterion for a continuous potential to satisfy the…

We construct a complete invariant for non-wandering surface flows with finitely many singular points but without locally dense orbits. Precisely, we show that a flow $v$ with finitely many singular points on a compact connected surface $S$…

Steady fluid flows have very special topology. In this paper we describe necessary and sufficient conditions on the vorticity function of a 2D ideal flow on a surface with or without boundary, for which there exists a steady flow among…

For Axiom A diffeomorphisms and flows, the celebrated Spectral Decomposition Theorem of Smale states that the non-wandering set decomposes into a finite disjoint union of isolated compact invariant sets, each of which is the homoclinic…

The liftable centralizer for special flows over irrational rotations is studied. It is shown that there are such flows under piecewise constant roof functions which are rigid and whose liftable centralizer is trivial.

We localize the entropy functionals of G. Perelman and generalize his no-local-collapsing theorem and pseudo-locality theorem. Our generalization is technically inspired by further development of Li-Yau estimate along the Ricci flow. It can…

We consider special flows over the rotation by an irrational $\alpha$ under the roof functions of bounded variation without continuous, singular part in the Lebesgue decomposition and the sum of jumps $\neq 0$. We show that all such flows…

We give a simple proof of an extension of the existence results of Ricci flow of G.Giesen and P.M.Topping [GiT1],[GiT2], on incomplete surfaces with bounded above Gauss curvature without using the difficult Shi's existence theorem of Ricci…

We establish a 1-to-1 relation between metrics on compact Riemann surfaces without boundary, and mechanical systems having those surfaces as configuration spaces.

In previous work we established the existence of a Ricci flow starting with a Riemann surface coupled with a nonatomic Radon measure as a conformal factor. In this paper we prove uniqueness. Combining these two works yields a canonical…

It is shown that a certain class of Riesz product type measure on $\mathbb{R}$ is singular. This proves the singularity of the spectral types of some class of rank one flows. Our method is based on the extension of the Central Limit Theorem…

On the unit tangent bundle of a nonflat compact nonpositively curved surface, we prove that there is a unique probability Borel measure invariant by a horocyclic flow which gives full measure to the set of rank $1$ vectors recurrent by the…

We study the subsequential convergence of singular solutions to the Ricci flow with prescribed constant in space geodesic curvature on compact surfaces with boundary. Furthermore, we show that in the particular case of rotational symmetry,…

We define a notion of rank for words and subshifts that we call spacer rank, extending the notion of rank-one symbolic shifts of Gao and Hill. We construct infinite words of each finite spacer rank, of unbounded spacer rank, and show there…

We show that non-trivial chain recurrent classes for generic $C^1$ star flows satisfy a dichotomy: either they have zero topological entropy, or they must be isolated. Moreover, chain recurrent classes for generic star flows with zero…

In this paper, we study dynamics of geodesic flows over closed surfaces of genus greater than or equal to 2 without focal points. Especially, we prove that there is a large class of potentials having unique equilibrium states, including…
