In this paper, we study the pointwise convergence of centain continuous-time polynomial ergodic averages. Our approach is based on the topological models of measurable flows. One of the main results of this paper is as follows: Let $a\in…

We analyse the intersection of positively and negatively sectional-hyperbolic sets for flows on compact manifolds. First we prove that such an intersection is hyperbolic if the intersecting sets are both transitive (this is false without…

We use entropy theory as a new tool to study sectional hyperbolic flows in any dimension. We show that for $C^1$ flows, every sectional hyperbolic set $\Lambda$ is entropy expansive, and the topological entropy varies continuously with the…

The paper proves two theorems concerning the set of periods of periodic orbits for maps of graphs that are homotopic to the constant map and such that the vertices form a periodic orbit. The first result is that if $v$ is not a divisor of…

In this article we apply local bifurcation theory to prove the existence of small-amplitude steady periodic water waves, which propagate over a flat bed with a specified fixed mean-depth, and where the underlying flow has a discontinuous…

We construct a symplectic flow on a surface of genus g greater than one with exactly 2g-2 hyperbolic fixed points and no other periodic orbits. Moreover, we prove that a (strongly non-degenerate) symplectomorphism of a surface (with genus g…

The main purpose of this paper is mathematical analysis on time-periodic flows of electrons and holes in semiconductors. The flows appear in a situation that alternating-current voltages are applied to devices. In this paper, we study the…

Given any $K>0$, we construct two equivalent $C^2$ flows, one of which has positive topological entropy larger than $K$ and admits zero as the exponential growth of periodic orbits, in contrast, the other has zero topological entropy and…

We show that a continuous map or a continuous flow on $\R^{n}$ with a certain recurrence relation must have a fixed point. Specifically, if there is a compact set W with the property that the forward orbit of every point in $\R^{n}$…
