In this paper, we study the quantitative recurrence properties in the case of $\mathbb{Z}$-extension of Axiom A flows on a Riemannian manifold. We study the asymptotic behavior of the first return time to a small neighborhood of the…

Spatial networks have recently attracted great interest in various fields of research. While the traditional network-theoretic viewpoint is commonly restricted to their topological characteristics (often disregarding existing spatial…

We study the geodesics on an invariant surface of a three dimensional Riemannian manifold. The main results are: the characterization of geodesic orbits; a Clairaut's relation and its geometric interpretation in some remarkable three…

Any closed, oriented, hyperbolic three-manifold with nontrivial second homology has many quasigeodesic flows, where quasigeodesic means that flow lines are uniformly efficient in measuring distance in relative homotopy classes. The flows…

For $\mathcal{O}$ a hyperbolic orientable 2-orbifold of genus $g$ with at most $2g+6$ conic points, we prove that the geodesic flow on the unitary tangent bundle$\mathrm{T}^1\mathcal{O}$ admits a Birkhoff section whose genus is one.…

We construct $C^{\infty}$ time-periodic fluctuating surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ such that the corresponding nonautonomous geodesic flow has orbits along which the energy, and thus the speed, goes to infinity.
