In this paper, we study flows and semiflows defined on any given finite topological $T_0$-space $X$. We show that there exist non-trivial semiflows on $X$, unless $X$ is a minimal finite space. Specifically, non-trivial semiflows exist if…

Finite topological spaces became much more essential in topology, with the development of computer science. The task of this paper is to study and investigate some properties of such spaces with the existence of an ordered relation between…

In this text we (re)-tell the theory of pseudo-Anosov flows on 3-manifolds with the orbit space as the central character; via a streamlined framework called {\em Anosov-like group actions}. This brings a simplified and unified perspective,…

Let $M_j$ be a sequence of Riemannian manifolds with sectional curvature bound below collapsing to a compact Alexandrov space $X$ of dimension $k$. Suppose that all but finitely many points of $X$ are $(k,\delta)$-strained and that the…

We show the existence of a solution to the Ricci flow with a compact length space of bounded curvature, i.e., a space that has curvature bounded above and below in the sense of Alexandrov, as its initial condition. We show that this flow…

We study three-dimensional Alexandrov spaces with a lower curvature bound, focusing on extending three classical results on three-dimensional manifolds: First, we show that a closed three-dimensional Alexandrov space of positive curvature,…

In this paper, we discuss the basic properties of Alexandroff spaces. Several examples of Alexandroff spaces are given. We show how to construct new Alexandroff spaces from given ones. Finally, two invariants for compact Alexandroff spaces…

An Alexandroff space is a topological space in which every intersection of open sets is open. There is one to one correspondence between Alexandroff $T_0$-spaces and partially ordered sets (posets). We investigate Alexandroff…

In a previous paper with C. Bonatti ([5]), we have defined a general procedure to build new examples of Anosov flows in dimension 3. The procedure consists in gluing together some building blocks, called hyperbolic plugs, along their…

In this paper, we show existence and uniqueness of Ricci flow whose initial condition is a compact Alexandrov surface with curvature bounded from below. This requires a weakening of the notion of initial condition which is able to deal with…

We give the complete classification of regular projectively Anosov flows on closed three-dimensional manifolds. More precisely, we show that such a flow must be either an Anosov flow or decomposed into a finite union of $T^2 \times…

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…

We study nontrivial entropy invariants in the class of parabolic flows on homogeneous spaces, quasi-unipotent flows. We show that topological complexity (ie, slow entropy) can be computed directly from the Jordan block structure of the…

We develop an Aleksandrov reflection framework for a large class of expanding curvature flows in hyperbolic space, with inverse mean curvature flow serving as a model case. The method applies to the level-set formulation of the flow. As a…

The well known equivalence between preorders and Alexandrov spaces is extended to an equivalence between arbitrary topological spaces and spatial fibrous preorders, a new notion to be introduced.

The first half of this paper is concerned with the topology of the space $\AAA(M)$ of (not necessarily contact) Anosov vector fields on the unit tangent bundle $M$ of closed oriented hyperbolic surfaces $\Sigma$. We show that there are…

We show that any topologically transitive codimension-one Anosov flow on a closed manifold is topologically equivalent to a smooth Anosov flow that preserves a smooth volume. By a classical theorem due to Verjovsky, any higher dimensional…

Graph comparison is a certain type of condition on metric space encoded by a finite graph. We show that any nontrivial graph comparison implies one of Alexandrov's comparisons. The proof gives a complete description of graphs with trivial…

We show that solutions to certain higher-order intrinsic geometric flows on a compact manifold, including some flows generated by the ambient obstruction tensor, are unique. With the goal of providing a complete self-contained proof,…

We consider a minimal compact lamination by hyperbolic surfaces. We prove that if it admits a leaf whose holonomy covering is not topologically trivial, then the horocycle flow on its unitary tangent bundle is minimal.
