Let $M$ be a smooth closed oriented surface. Gaussian thermostats on $M$ correspond to the geodesic flows arising from metric connections, including those with non-zero torsion. These flows may not preserve any absolutely continuous…
Given any $K>0$, we construct two equivalent $C^2$ flows, one of which has positive topological entropy larger than $K$ and admits zero as the exponential growth of periodic orbits, in contrast, the other has zero topological entropy and…
We prove that any divisible dynamical simplex is the set of invariant measures of some Toeplitz subshift. We apply our construction to prove that orbit equivalence of Toeplitz subshifts is Borel bireducible to the universal equivalence…
We show that a self orbit equivalence of a transitive Anosov flow on a $3$-manifold which is homotopic to identity has to either preserve every orbit or the Anosov flow is $\mathbb{R}$-covered and the orbit equivalence has to be of a…
We outline the 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 Seifert…
We prove that every $C^1$ three-dimensional flow with positive topological entropy can be $C^1$ approximated by flows with homoclinic orbits. This extends a previous result for $C^1$ surface diffeomorphisms \cite{g}.
Let $f:T^2\to\mathbb{R}$ be a Morse function on $2$-torus $T^2$ such that its Kronrod-Reeb graph $\Gamma(f)$ has exactly one cycle, i.e. it is homotopy equivalent to $S^1$. Under some additional conditions we describe a homotopy type of the…
Let $E$ be a countable Borel equivalence relation on the space $\mathcal{E}_{\infty}$ of all infinite partitions of the natural numbers. We show that $E$ coincides with equality below a Carlson-Simpson generic element of…
We consider axisymmetric Euler flows without swirl in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ with $d\geq 4$, for which the global regularity of smooth solutions is an open problem. When $d = 4$, we obtain global regularity under the assumption that the initial…
We study basic properties of flow equivalence on one-dimensional compact metric spaces with a particular emphasis on isotopy in the group of (self-) flow equivalences on such a space. In particular, we show that an orbit-preserving such map…
Let $E\subseteq F$ and $E'\subseteq F'$ be Borel equivalence relations on the standard Borel spaces $X$ and $Y$, respectively. The pair $(E,F)$ is simultaneously Borel reducible to the pair $(E',F')$ if there is a Borel function $f:X\to Y$…
We review the Analogue Gravity description of a unidirectional water wave system, assuming no prior knowledge of General Relativity or differential geometry. In so doing, we generalize established results concerning an effective curved…
Two flows on a finite-dimensional normed space $X$ are equivalent if some homeomorphism $h$ of $X$ preserves all orbits, i.e., $h$ maps each orbit onto an orbit. Under the assumption that $h$, $h^{-1}$ both are $\beta$-H\"{o}lder continuous…
We develop a framework for dealing with smooth approximations to billiards with corners in the two-dimensional setting. Let a polygonal trajectory in a billiard start and end up at the same billiard's corner point. We prove that smooth…
Two flows are topologically almost commensurable if, up to removing finitely many periodic orbits and taking finite coverings, they are topologically equivalent. We prove that all suspensions of automorphisms of the 2-dimensional torus and…
Consider the motion of a material point of unit mass in a central field determined by a homogeneous potential of the form $(-1/r^{\alpha})$, $\alpha>0,$ where $r$ being the distance to the centre of the field. Due to the singularity at…
The paper considers the equivalence relation of conjugacy-by-homeomorphism on diffeomorphisms of smooth manifolds. In dimension 2 and above it is shown that there is no Borel method of attaching complete numerical invariants. In dimension 5…
We give conditions for when continuous orbit equivalence of one-sided shift spaces implies flow equivalence of the associated two-sided shift spaces. Using groupoid techniques, we prove that this is always the case for shifts of finite…
Let $(F_t)$ be a smooth flow on a smooth manifold $M$ and $h:M\to M$ be a smooth orbit preserving map. The following problem is studied: suppose that for every point $z$ of $M$ there exists a germ of a smooth function $f_z$ at $z$ such that…
It is well-known that a function on an open set in $\mathbb R^d$ is smooth if and only if it is arc-smooth, i.e., its composites with all smooth curves are smooth. In recent work, we extended this and related results (for instance, a real…
