We prove that dynamical coherence is an open and closed property in the space of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms of $\mathbb{T}^3$ isotopic to Anosov. Moreover, we prove that strong partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms of…

We propose a new method for constructing partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms on closed manifolds. As a demonstration of the method we show that there are simply connected closed manifolds that support partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms.

In 1969, Hirsch posed the following problem: given a diffeomorphism, and a compact invariant hyperbolic set, describe its topology and restricted dynamics. We solve the problem where the hyperbolic invariant set is a closed 3-manifold: if…

We show that conservative partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism isotopic to the identity on Seifert 3-manifolds are ergodic.

We suggest a method to construct new examples of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms. We begin with a partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism $f\colon M\to M$ which leaves invariant a submanifold $N\subset M$. We assume that $N$ is an Anosov…

We determine which closed orientable $3$-manifolds $M$ admit a self-homeomorphism restricting to a pseudo-Anosov map on an incompressible subsurface $\Sigma$, which we call a pseudo-Anosov surface. When $M$ is irreducible, we show that the…

We investigate dynamical systems obtained by coupling two maps, one of which is chaotic and is exemplified by an Anosov diffeomorphism, and the other is of gradient type and is exemplified by a N-pole-to-S-pole map of the circle. Leveraging…

We show that any conservative partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism homotopic to the identity is accessible unless the fundamental group of its ambient 3-manifold is virtually solvable. As a consequence, such diffeomorphisms are ergodic,…

We introduce a notion of autonomous dynamical systems and apply it to prove rigidity of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms on closed compact three-manifolds under some smoothness hypothesis of their associated framing.

Let M be a closed orientable irreducible 3-manifold, and let f be a diffeomorphism over M. We call an embedded 2-torus T an Anosov torus if it is invariant and the induced action of f over \pi_1(T) is hyperbolic. We prove that only few…

This paper surveys recent results on classifying partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms. This includes the construction of branching foliations and leaf conjugacies on three-dimensional manifolds with solvable fundamental group.…

We show that a strong partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism of $\mathbb{T}^3$ isotopic to Anosov has a unique quasi-attractor. Moreover, we study the entropy of the diffeomorphism restricted to this quasi-attractor.

We give sufficient conditions for an expansive partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism with one-dimensional center to be (topologically) Anosov.

We consider the class of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms on a closed 3-manifold with quasi-isometric center. Under the non-wandering condition, we prove that the diffeomorphisms are accessible if there is no $su$-torus. As a…

In this paper we give the first example of a non-dynamically coherent partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism with one-dimensional center bundle. The existence of such an example had been an open question since 1975.

We study the specification property for partially hyperbolic dynamical systems. In particular, we show that if a partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism has two saddles with different indices, and stable manifold of one of them coincides with…

We give a complete topological classification of transitive partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms in 3-manifolds in terms of Anosov flows, completing a program proposed by Pujals. In particular, this also allows to give a full answer to the…

We show exactly which Seifert manifolds support partially hyperbolic dynamical systems. In particular, a circle bundle over a higher-genus surface supports a partially hyperbolic system if and only if it supports an Anosov flow. We also…

We discuss about the denseness of the strong stable and unstable manifolds of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms. In this sense, we introduce a concept of m-minimality. More precisely, we say that a partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms is…

We construct examples of robustly transitive and stably ergodic partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms $f$ on compact $3$-manifolds with fundamental groups of exponential growth such that $f^n$ is not homotopic to identity for all $n>0$.…
