On a compact Riemannian manifold $M$ with boundary $Y$, we express the log of the zeta-determinant of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator acting on $q$-forms on $Y$ as the difference of the log of the zeta-determinant of the Laplacian on…

We construct Morse-Smale-Witten complex for an effective orientable orbifold. For a global quotient orbifold, we also construct a Morse-Bott complex. We show that certain type of critical points of a Morse function has to be discarded to…

We study irreducible Smale spaces with totally disconnected stable sets and their associated $K$-theoretic invariants. Such Smale spaces arise as Wieler solenoids, and we restrict to those arising from open surjections. The paper follows…

We introduce "puzzles of quasi-finite type" which are the counterparts of our subshifts of quasi-finite type (Invent. Math. 159 (2005)) in the setting of combinatorial puzzles as defined in complex dynamics. We are able to analyze these…

We previously developed an approach to Bialynicki-Birula theory for holomorphic $\mathbb{C}^*$ actions on complex analytic spaces and the concept of virtual Morse-Bott indices for singular critical points of Hamiltonian functions for the…

A general fixed point theorem for isometries in terms of metric functionals is proved under the assumption of the existence of a conical bicombing. It is new even for isometries of Banach spaces as well as for non-locally compact…

We present a quantum mechanical model which establishes the veracity of the Riemann hypothesis that the non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta-function lie on the critical line of $\zeta(s)$.

Using analytic torsion associated to stable bundles, we introduce zeta functions for compact Riemann surfaces. To justify the well-definedness, we analyze the degenerations of analytic torsions at the boundaries of the moduli spaces, the…

We continue our study of symplectically flat bundles. We broaden the notion of symplectically flat connections on symplectic manifolds to $\zeta$-flat connections on smooth manifolds. These connections on principal bundles can be…

On a smooth compact Riemannian manifold without boundary, we construct a finite dimensional cohomological complex of currents that are invariant by an Axiom A flow verifying Smale's transversality assumptions. The cohomology of that complex…

We generalize a theorem of Bismut-Zhang, which extends the Cheeger-Mueller theorem on Ray-Singer torsion and Reidemeister torsion, to the case where the flat vector bundle over a closed manifold carries a nondegenerate symmetric bilinear…

It is proved that all special flows over the rotation by an irrational $\alpha$ with bounded partial quotients and under $f$ which is piecewise absolutely continuous with a non-zero sum of jumps are mildly mixing. Such flows are also shown…

We show that for a generic conformal metric perturbation of a compact hyperbolic 3-manifold $\Sigma$ with Betti number $b_1$, the order of vanishing of the Ruelle zeta function at zero equals $4-b_1$, while in the hyperbolic case it is…

By studying spaces of flow graphs in a closed oriented manifold, we construct operations on its cohomology, parametrized by the homology of the moduli spaces of compact Riemann surfaces with boundary marked points. We show that the…

Let $X$ be a vector field and $Y$ be a co-vector field on a smooth manifold $M$. Does there exist a smooth Riemannian metric $g_{\alpha \beta}$ on $M$ such that $Y_\beta = g_{\alpha \beta} X^\alpha$? The main result of this note gives…

For any $a\in\mathbb{C}$, the zeros of $\zeta(s)-a$, denoted by $\rho_a=\beta_a+i\gamma_a$, are called $a$-points of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$. In this paper, we reformulate some basic results about the $a$-points of $\zeta(s)$…

Assume that the link of a complex normal surface singularity is a rational homology sphere. Then its Seiberg-Witten invariant can be computed as the `periodic constant' of the topological multivariable Poincar\'e series (zeta function).…

Summations and relations involving the Hurwitz and Riemann zeta-functions are extended first to Barnes zeta-functions and then to zeta-functions of general type. The analysis is motivated by the evaluation of determinants on spheres which…

We first construct a dynamical systems model which in its steady-state serves as an analytic continuation of the completed Riemann zeta function over the entire critical strip. The resulting mathematical construct involves a linear…

Assuming some regularity of the dynamical zeta function, we establish an explicit formula with an error term for the prime orbit counting function of a suspended flow. We define the subclass of self-similar flows, for which we give an…
