Geometric flows have proved to be a powerful geometric analysis tool, perhaps most notably in the study of 3-manifold topology, the differentiable sphere theorem, Hermitian-Yang-Mills connections and canonical Kaehler metrics. In the…
We prove the equivariant divergence formula for the axiom A flow attractors, which is a recursive formula for perturbation of transfer operators of physical measures along center-unstable manifolds. Hence the linear response acquires an…
Dynamic inverse problems are challenging to solve due to the need to identify and incorporate appropriate regularization in both space and time. Moreover, the very large scale nature of such problems in practice presents an enormous…
We prove several results for dynamics of $SL(d, \R)$-actions on non-compact parameter spaces by studying associated discrete sets in Euclidean spaces. This allows us to give elementary proofs of logarithm laws for horocycle flows on…
