This paper is concerned with coupling conditions at junctions for transport models which differ in their fidelity to describe transient flow in gas pipelines. It also includes the integration of compressors between two pipes with possibly…

In 2004, Manning showed that the topological entropy of the geodesic flow of a closed surface of non-constant negative curvature is strictly decreasing along the normalized Ricci flow, and he asked if an analogous result holds in higher…

The systolic ratio of a contact form $\alpha$ on the three-sphere is the quantity \[ \rho_{\mathrm{sys}}(\alpha) = \frac{T_{\min}(\alpha)^2}{\mathrm{vol}(S^3,\alpha\wedge d\alpha)}, \] where $T_{\min}(\alpha)$ is the minimal period of…

We obtain a $C^1$-generic subset of the incompressible flows in a closed three-dimensional manifold where Pesin's entropy formula holds thus establishing the continuous-time version of \cite{T}. Moreover, in any compact manifold of…

We introduce a notion of strong closing property of contact forms, inspired by the $C^\infty$ closing lemma for Reeb flows in dimension three. We then prove a sufficient criterion for strong closing property, which is formulated by…

We established existence of periodic Reeb orbits for a large class of tight contact structures on closed 3-manifolds, notably the Stein fillable structures, based on a fundamental theorem of Cliff Taubes on symplectic 4-manifolds.

We prove that for a certain class of closed monotone symplectic manifolds any Hamiltonian diffeomorphism with a hyperbolic fixed point must necessarily have infinitely many periodic orbits. Among the manifolds in this class are complex…

Let $X \subset \mathbb{R}^4$ be a convex domain with smooth boundary $Y$. We use a relation between the extrinsic curvature of $Y$ and the Ruelle invariant $\text{Ru}(Y)$ of the natural Reeb flow on $Y$ to prove that there exist constants…

This paper generalizes the classical notion of turbulence from dynamical systems generated by continuous functions to those defined by closed relations on compact metric spaces. Using the Mahavier product and the associated shift map, we…

A closed braid naturally gives rise to a transverse link in the standard contact 3-space. We study the effect of the dynamical properties of the braid monodromy, such as right-veering, on the contact-topological properties of the transverse…

In this paper we consider entanglement entropies in two-dimensional conformal field theories in the presence of topological interfaces. Tracing over one side of the interface, the leading term of the entropy remains unchanged. The interface…

We prove a $C^\infty$ closing lemma for Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of closed surfaces. This is a consequence of a $C^\infty$ closing lemma for Reeb flows on closed contact three-manifolds, which was recently proved as an application of…

The following inequalities are established, improving a former inequality due to Kojima. For any closed arithmetic hyperbolic $3$--manifold fibering over a circle, the entropy of the pseudo-Anosov monodromy is bounded by the hyperbolic…

We define an invariant of contact 3-manifolds with convex boundary using Kronheimer and Mrowka's sutured instanton Floer homology theory. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first invariant of contact manifolds -- with or without…

In this paper, we introduce an entropy functional on Riemannian foliation, inspired by the work of , which is monotonically along the transverse Ricci flow. We relate their gradient flow, via diffeomorphism preserving the foliated structure…

We construct a dynamically convex contact form on the three-sphere whose systolic ratio is arbitrarily close to 2. This example is related to a conjecture of Viterbo, whose validity would imply that the systolic ratio of a convex contact…

We analyse the topological (knot-theoretic) features of a certain codimension-one bifurcation of a partially hyperbolic fixed point in a flow on $\real^3$ originally described by Shil'nikov. By modifying how the invariant manifolds wrap…

We show that an overtwisted contact structure on a closed, oriented 3-manifold can be defined by a contact form having a Bott-integrable Reeb flow if and only if the Poincar\'e dual of its Euler class is represented by a graph link.

Let $Y$ be a topological Markov chain with finite leading and follower sets. Special flow over $Y$ whose height function depends on the time zero of elements of $Y$ is constructed. Then a formula for computing the entropy of this flow will…

We study the dynamics of the attractor of the doubling map with an asymmetrical hole by associating to each hole an element of the lexicographic world. A description of the topological entropy function is given. We show that the set of…
