Recently, Buzzi showed in the compact case that the entropy map $f\rightarrow$ $h_{top}(f)$ is lower semi-continuous for all piecewise affine surface homeomorphisms. We prove that topological entropy for the Lozi maps can jump from zero to…

In this paper, we study the entropy of a Hamiltonian flow in restriction to an enregy level where it admits a first integral which is nondegenerate in the Bott sense. It is easy to see that for such a flow, the topological entropy vanishes.…

We develop a notion of entropy, using hyperbolic time, for laminations by hyperbolic Riemann surfaces. When the lamination is compact and transversally smooth, we show that the entropy is finite and the Poincare metric on leaves is…

This paper investigates the dynamics of time-periodic Euler flows in multi-connected, planar fluid regions which are ``stirred'' by the moving boundaries. The classical Helmholtz theorem on the transport of vorticity implies that if the…

We consider the normalized Ricci flow evolving from an initial metric which is conformally compactifiable and asymptotically hyperbolic. We show that there is a unique evolving metric which remains in this class, and that the flow exists up…

We use entropy theory as a new tool for studying Lorenz-like classes of flows in any dimension. More precisely, we show that every Lorenz-like class is entropy expansive, and has positive entropy which varies continuously with vector…

The exact expression for the entropy current of a fluid in presence of two dimensional gravitational anomalies is given. To make it compatible with the second law of thermodynamics; i.e. positivity of the entropy production rate of a system…

We show that for every linear toral automorphism, especially the non-hyperbolic ones, the entropies of ergodic measures form a dense set on the interval from zero to the topological entropy.

We give an upper bound for the topological entropy of maps on inverse limit spaces in terms of their set-valued components. In a special case of a diagonal map on the inverse limit space $\underleftarrow{\lim}(I,f)$, where every diagonal…

In this paper, we investigate two hyperbolic flows obtained by adding forcing terms in direction of the position vector to the hyperbolic mean curvature flows in \cite{klw,hdl}. For the first hyperbolic flow, as in \cite{klw}, by using…

For every non-elementary hyperbolic group, we introduce the Manhattan curve associated to any pair of left-invariant hyperbolic metrics which are quasi-isometric to a word metric. It is convex; we show that it is continuously differentiable…

Stirring a two-dimensional viscous fluid with rods is often an effective way to mix. The topological features of periodic rod motions give a lower bound on the topological entropy of the induced flow map, since material lines must `catch'…

We define the concept of continuum wise expansive for flows, and we prove that continuum wise expansive flows on compact metric spaces with topological dimension greater than one have positive entropy.

We show vanishing results about the infimum of the topological entropy of the geodesic flow of homogeneous smooth four manifolds. We prove that any closed oriented geometric four manifold has zero minimal entropy if and only if it has zero…

Topological entropy serves as a viable candidate for quantifying mixing and complexity of a highly chaotic system. Particularly in turbulence, this is determined as the exponential stretching rate of a fluid material line that typically…
