The main result of the paper is classification of free multidimensional Borel flows up to Lebesgue Orbit Equivalence, by which we understand an orbit equivalence that preserves the Lebesgue measure on each orbit. Two non smooth Euclidean…

Any free Borel flow is shown to admit a cross section with only two possible distances between adjacent points. Non smooth flows are proved to be Lebesgue orbit equivalent if and only if they admit the same number of invariant ergodic…

This paper addresses the notion of time change equivalence for Borel multidimensional flows. We show that all free flows are time change equivalent up to a compressible set. An appropriate version of this result for non-free flows is also…

We show a rigidity result for 3-dimensional contact Axiom A flows: given two 3D contact Axiom A flows $\Phi_1,\Phi_2$ whose restrictions $\Phi_1|_{\Lambda_1},\Phi_2|_{\Lambda_2}$ to basic sets $\Lambda_1,\Lambda_2$ are orbit equivalent, we…

We prove here that given a proper isometric action $K\times M\to M$ on a complete Riemannian manifold $M$ then every continuous isometric flow on the orbit space $M/K$ is smooth, i.e., it is the projection of an $K$-equivariant smooth flow…

We solve the problem of topological classification for smooth structurally stable flows on closed four-dimensional manifolds, the non-wandering set of which contains exactly two saddle equilibria, and the wandering set contains isolated…

For smooth vector fields the classical method of characteristics provides a link between the ordinary differential equation and the corresponding continuity equation (or transport equation). We study an analog of this connection for merely…

Let $\Phi$ be a flow on a smooth, compact, finite-dimensional manifold $M$. Consider the subsets $E(\Phi)$ and $D(\Phi)$ of $C^{\infty}(M,M)$ consisting of smoothh mappings and diffeomorphisms (respectively) of $M$ preserving the foliation…

To an ergodic, essentially free and measure-preserving action of a non-amenable Baumslag-Solitar group on a standard probability space, a flow is associated. The isomorphism class of the flow is shown to be an invariant of such actions of…

We give a detailed construction of a proper C^2-smooth function on R^4 such that its Hamiltonian flow has no periodic orbits on at least one regular level set. This result can be viewed as a C^2-smooth counterexample to the Hamiltonian…

We prove that the classification of real-analytic vector fields on the two-torus up to orbital topological equivalence does not admit a complete numerical invariant that is a Borel function. Moreover, smooth vector fields that are difficult…

In this paper we consider non-singular Morse-Smale flows on closed orientable 3-manifolds, under the assumption that among the periodic orbits of the flow there is only one saddle orbit and it is twisted. It is found that any manifold…

This paper investigates which smooth manifolds arise as quotients (orbit spaces) of flows of vector fields. Such quotient maps were already known to be surjective on fundamental groups, but this paper shows that every epimorphism of…

We show that every parabolic orbit of a two-degree of freedom integrable system admits a $C^\infty$-smooth Hamiltonian circle action, which is persistent under small integrable $C^\infty$ perturbations. We deduce from this result the…

We classify quasiconformal Anosov flows whose strong stable and unstable distributions are at least two dimensional and the sum of these two distributions is smooth. We deduce from this classification result the complete classification of…

By a gradient-like flow on a closed orientable surface $M$, we mean a closed 1-form $\beta$ defined on $M$ punctured at a finite set of points (sources and sinks of $\beta$) such that there exists a Morse function $f$ on $M$, called an…

In this paper it is proved that near a compact, invariant, proper subset of a continuous flow on a compact, connected metric space, at least one, out of twenty eight relevant dynamical phenomena, will necessarily occur. This result shows…

We prove that two smooth families of 2-connected domains in $\cc$ are smoothly equivalent if they are equivalent under a possibly discontinuous family of biholomorphisms. We construct, for $m \geq 3$, two smooth families of smoothly bounded…

It is an open problem whether every continuous homomorphism between infinite-dimensional Lie groups is smooth. In this article, we show that every Hoelder continuous homomorphism is smooth.

In this paper we prove that an isometry between orbit spaces of two proper isometric actions is smooth if it preserves the codimension of the orbits or if the orbit spaces have no boundary. In other words, we generalize Myers-Steenrod's…
