We study the geodesic flow on the global holomorphic sections of the bundle $\pi:{TS}^2\to {S}^2$ induced by the neutral K\"ahler metric on the space of oriented lines of ${\Bbb{R}}^3$, which we identify with ${TS}^2$. This flow is shown to…

Let $E$ be a flat Lorentzian space of signature $(2, 1)$. A Margulis space-time is a noncompact complete Lorentz flat $3$-manifold $E/\Gamma$ with a free isometry group $\Gamma$ of rank $g \geq 2$. We consider the case when $\Gamma$…

It has been proved that on 2-dimensional orientable compact manifolds of genus $g>1$ there is no integrable geodesic flow with an integral polynomial in momenta. There is a conjecture that all integrable geodesic flows on $T^2$ possess an…

Assisted by general symmetry arguments and a many-body invariant, we introduce a phase of matter that constitutes a topological SO(5) superfluid. Key to this finding is the realization of an exactly solvable model that displays some…

We show that the space of orthogonally separable coordinates on the sphere $S^3$ induces a natural family of integrable systems, which after symplectic reduction leads to a family of integrable systems on $S^2 \times S^2$. The generic…

Let $M=S^n/ \Gamma$ and $h \in \pi_1(M)$ be a non-trivial element of finite order $p$, where the integers $n, p\geq2$ and $\Gamma$ is a finite abelian group which acts on the sphere freely and isometrically, therefore $M$ is diffeomorphic…

We give a review of the systematic construction of hierarchies of soliton flows and integrable elliptic equations associated to a complex semi-simple Lie algebra and finite order automorphisms. For example, the non-linear Schr\"odinger…

We extend the twisted gauge theory model of topological orders in three spatial dimensions to the case where the three spaces have two dimensional boundaries. We achieve this by systematically constructing the boundary Hamiltonians that are…

We here explore black holes in the third order Lovelock gravity coupling with nonlinear Born-Infeld electromagnetic field. Considering special second and third order coefficients ($\hat{\alpha}_2^2=3\hat{\alpha}_3=\alpha^2$), we analyze the…

Right-invariant geodesic flows on manifolds of Lie groups associated with 2-cocycles of corresponding Lie algebras are discussed. Algebra of integrals of motion for magnetic geodesic flows is considered and necessary and sufficient…

The volumes, spectra and geodesics of a recently constructed infinite family of five-dimensional inhomogeneous Einstein metrics on the two $S^3$ bundles over $S^2$ are examined. The metrics are in general of cohomogeneity one but they…

According to Mostow's celebrated rigidity theorem, the geometry of closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds is already determined by their topology. In particular, the volume of such manifolds is a topological invariant and, as such, has been…

In this work we examine the stability of some classes of integrals, and in particular with respect to homogenization. The prototypical case is the homogenization of quadratic energies with periodic coefficients perturbed by a term vanishing…

We investigate the 3D stationary flow of a weakly conducting fluid in a cubic cavity, driven by the Lorentz force created by two permanent magnets and a weak constant current. Our goal is to determine the conditions leading to efficient…

In this paper, we prove that the systolic volume of a closed aspherical 3-manifold is bounded below in terms of complexity. Systolic volume is defined as the optimal constant in a systolic inequality. Babenko showed that the systolic volume…

We define the class of high dimensional graph manifolds. These are compact smooth manifolds supporting a decomposition into finitely many pieces, each of which is diffeomorphic to the product of a torus with a finite volume hyperbolic…
