We study the geodesic flow on the cotangent bundle of a Friedman-Robertson-Walker spacetime (M, g). On this bundle, the HamiltonJacobi equation is completely separable and this separability leads us to construct four linearly independent…
We discuss four-dimensional "spatially homogeneous" gravitational instantons. These are self-dual solutions of Euclidean vacuum Einstein's equations with potentially non-vanishing cosmological constant. They are endowed with a product…

Methods of Hamiltonian dynamics are applied to study the geodesic flow on the resolved conifolds over Sasaki-Einstein space $T^{1,1}$. We construct explicitly the constants of motion and prove complete integrability of geodesics in the…
We study non-Einstein Bach-flat gravitational instanton solutions that can be regarded as the generalization of the Taub-NUT/Bolt and Eguchi-Hanson solutions of Einstein gravity to conformal gravity. These solutions include non-Einstein…

In this paper we study quasi-linear system of partial differential equations which describes the existence of the polynomial in momenta first integral of the integrable geodesic flow on 2-torus. We proved in [3] that this is a…
We prove complete integrability of the Manakov-type SO(n)-invariant geodesic flows on homogeneous spaces $SO(n)/SO(k_1)\times...\times SO(k_r)$, for any choice of $k_1,...,k_r$, $k_1+...+k_r\le n$. In particular, a new proof of the…
We construct explicitly the constants of motion for geodesics in the $5$-dimensional Sasaki-Einstein spaces $Y^{p,q}$. To carry out this task we use the knowledge of the complete set of Killing vectors and Killing-Yano tensors on these…
This paper is a review on recently found connection between geodesically equivalent metrics and integrable geodesic flows. Suppose two different metrics on one manifold have the same geodesics. We show that then the geodesic flows of these…
Let $G/K$ be an orbit of the adjoint representation of a compact connected Lie group $G$, $\sigma$ be an involutive automorphism of $G$ and $\tilde G$ be the Lie group of fixed points of $\sigma$. We find a sufficient condition for the…
In this work, we study nonconformally Ricci-flat gravitational instantons in four-dimensional Conformal Gravity, both in vacuum and in the presence of nonlinear conformal matter. First, the one-parameter extension of the Kerr-NUT-AdS metric…
In this paper, we present a new formulation of topological conformal gravity in four dimensions. Such a theory was first considered by Witten as a possible gravitational counterpart of topological Yang-Mills theory, but several problems…
We study the magnetic geodesic flows on 2-surfaces having an additional first integral which is independent of the Hamiltonian at a fixed energy level. The following two cases are considered: when there exists a quadratic in momenta…
This paper presents a new construction of non-Anosov Partially Hyperbolic Geodesic flows. Our construction is closely related to the construction made by Carneiro and Pujals, the novelty is the use of conformal deformations to produce the…
