We have developed a method to construct realistic triaxial dynamical models for elliptical galaxies, allowing us to derive best-fitting parameters, such as the mass-to-light ratio and the black hole mass, and to study the orbital structure.…
A completely nonintegrable $2$-dimensional distribution on a $4$-manifold is called an Engel structure. A $4$-manifold with an Engel structure is called an Engel manifold. The developing map for an Engel manifold is very important tool to…

Some work in progress is announced, on the use of algebraic geometry, mostly concerning elliptic curve theory, to model turbulence. Attention is given to flows across the scales, on some convenient model space, and some current trials are…
This survey is an invitation to recent developments in higher dimensional birational geometry.
The purpose of this note is to discuss examples of geometric transition from hyperbolic structures to half-pipe and Anti-de Sitter structures in dimensions two, three and four. As a warm-up, explicit examples of transition to Euclidean and…
We develop a transitional geometry, that is, a family of geometries of constant curvatures which makes a continuous connec-tion between the hyperbolic, Euclidean and spherical geometries. In this transitional setting, several geometric…
Our aim is to illustrate how one can effectively apply the basic ideas and notions of topological entropy and dynamical degrees, together with recent progress of minimal model theory in higher dimension, for an explicit study of birational…
We develop a topological framework for Engel expansions that treats both directions of the correspondence between points of $(0,1]$ and nondecreasing digit sequences. We endow the sequence space with the product topology to study the…
In this paper we will relate hyperstructures and the general $\mathscr{H}$-principle to known mathematical structures, and also discuss how they may give rise to new mathematical structures. The main purpose is to point out new ideas and…
We discuss here the use of generalized forms of entropy, taken as information measures, to characterize phase transitions and critical behavior in thermodynamic systems. Our study is based on geometric considerations pertaining to the space…

We study ergodic properties of partially hyperbolic systems whose central direction is mostly contracting. Earlier work of Bonatti, Viana about existence and finitude of physical measures is extended to the case of local diffeomorphisms.…
We discuss recent progress in understanding the dynamical properties of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms that preserve volume. The main topics addressed are density of stable ergodicity and stable accessibility, center Lyapunov…
Characteristic class relations in Dolbeault cohomology follow from the existence of a holomorphic geometric structure (for example, holomorphic conformal structures, holomorphic Engel distributions, holomorphic projective connections, and…
This article describes a natural piecewise Euclidean bi-simplicial cell structure for the space of $n$-element multisets in a fixed Euclidean rectangle. In particular, we highlight some connections with spaces of complex polynomials and…
We show that transport in the presence of entropic barriers exhibits peculiar characteristics which makes it distinctly different from that occurring through energy barriers. The constrained dynamics yields a scaling regime for the particle…

We investigate theoretically the ground-state configurations of two-dimensional charged-particle systems with an elliptical hard-wall boundary and their vibrational eigenmodes. The systems exhibit a series of structural transitions, finally…
