In this paper we study Hamiltonian systems on contact manifolds, which is an appropriate scenario to discuss dissipative systems. We prove a coisotropic reduction theorem similar to the one in symplectic mechanics.

This paper presents two existence h-principles, the first for conformal symplectic structures on closed manifolds, and the second for leafwise conformal symplectic structures on foliated manifolds with non empty boundary. The latter…

We analyze the indicial roots of the self-dual deformation complex on a cylinder $(\mathbb{R} \times Y^3, dt^2 + g_Y)$, where $Y^3$ is a space of constant curvature. An application is the optimal decay rate of solutions on a self-dual…

A foliation on a manifold M can be informally thought of as a partition of M into injectively immersed submanifolds, called leaves. In this thesis we study foliations whose leaves carry some specific geometric structures. The thesis…

We offer a new proof that two closed oriented 4-manifolds are cobordant if their signatures agree, in the spirit of Lickorish's proof that all closed oriented 3-manifolds bound 4-manifolds. Where Lickorish uses Heegaard splittings we use…

We prove a reflection principle for minimal surfaces in smooth (non necessarily analytic) three manifolds and we give an explicit application when the ambient space is just a smooth manifold.

In this paper, we extend Gang Liu's three circle theorem for K\"ahler manifolds to almost Hermitian manifolds. As applications of the three circle theorem, we obtain sharp dimension estimates for spaces of holomorphic functions of…

Let $M$ be a closed, oriented and smooth manifold of dimension $d$. Let $\L M$ be the space of smooth loops in $M$. Chas and Sullivan introduced loop product, a product of degree $-d$ on the homology of $LM$. In this paper we show how for…

We prove that there is an algorithm which determines whether or not a given 2-polyhedron can be embedded into some integral homology 3-sphere. This is a corollary of the following main result. Let $M$ be a compact connected orientable…

This is mainly a survey of recent work on algebraic ways to ``measure'' moduli spaces of connecting trajectories in Morse and Floer theories as well as related applications to symplectic topology. The paper also contains some new results.…

A generalized-homology bordism-theory is constructed, such that for certain manifold homotopy stratified sets (MHSS; Quinn-spaces) homeomorphism-invariant geometric fundamental-classes exist. The construction combines three ideas: Firstly,…

We prove an h-principle with boundary condition for a certain class of topological spaces valued sheaves. The techniques used in the proof come from the study of the homotopy type of the cobordism categories, and they are of simplicial and…

A standard problem in applied topology is how to discover topological invariants of data from a noisy point cloud that approximates it. We consider the case where a sample is drawn from a properly embedded C1-submanifold without boundary in…

This paper introduces a new class of Lie systems that are Hamiltonian relative to a $k$-contact manifold. We show that a recent distributional approach to $k$-contact manifolds along with a related $k$-contact Hamiltonian vector field…

In this paper, we introduce a version of the moving plane method that applies to potentially quite singular hypersurfaces, generalizing the classical moving plane method for smooth hypersurfaces. Loosely speaking, our version for varifolds…

We bound the $L^2$-norm of an $L^2$ harmonic $1$-form in an orientable cusped hyperbolic $3$-manifold $M$ by its topological complexity, measured by the Thurston norm, up to a constant depending on $M$. It generalizes two inequalities of…

This introduction to the homotopy principle in complex analysis and geometry, better known as the Oka theory, is aimed at wide mathematical audience. After a brief historical survey of the h-principle in smooth analysis and geometry, I…

Pseudo-holomorphic curves on almost complex manifolds have been much more intensely studied than their "dual" objects, the plurisubharmonic functions. These functions are defined classically by requiring that the restriction to each…

Let $f\colon M \to M$ be a uniformly quasiregular self-mapping of a compact, connected, and oriented Riemannian $n$-manifold $M$ without boundary, $n\ge 2$. We show that, for $k \in \{0,\ldots, n\}$, the induced homomorphism $f^* \colon…

Stasheff showed that if a map between H-spaces is an H-map, then the suspension of the map is extendable to a map between cprojective planes of the H-spaces. Stahseff also proved the converse under the assumption that the multiplication of…
