In this paper, we obtain general conditions under which the wave equation is well-posed in spacetimes with metrics of Lipschitz regularity. In particular, the results can be applied to spacetimes where there is a loss of regularity on a…
The Birkhoff Ergodic Theorem asserts under mild conditions that Birkhoff averages (i.e. time averages computed along a trajectory) converge to the space average. For sufficiently smooth systems, our small modification of numerical Birkhoff…
We consider the question of how approximations satisfying Dirichlet's theorem spiral around vectors in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We give pointwise almost everywhere results (using only the Birkhoff ergodic theorem on the space of lattices). In…
In this short note, we establish a quantitative description of the genericity of transversality of $C^1$-submanifolds in $\mathbb{R}^n$: Let $\Sigma \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a $d$-dimensional $C^1$-embedded submanifold where $n \geq d+1$.…
In this paper, we study the topological spectrum of weighted Birkhoff averages over aperiodic and irreducible subshifts of finite type. We show that for a uniformly continuous family of potentials, the spectrum is continuous and concave…
We show that there exists a universal gap in the failure of the ergodic theorem for symmetric Birkhoff sums in infinite ergodic theory. In addition, an application of this result to a question of fluctuations of the Birkhoff integrals of…
We prove the existence and the 1/2-H\"older continuity in time of flat flows for periodic Lipschitz subgraphs, whose evolution is governed by the gradient flow of generalized nonlocal perimeters. Moreover, we show that the flat flow…
We show that for generic sliced spacetimes global hyperbolicity is equivalent to space completeness under the assumption that the lapse, shift and spatial metric are uniformly bounded. This leads us to the conclusion that simple sliced…
Motivated by the conjectured Penrose inequality and by the work of Hawking, Geroch, Huisken and Ilmanen in the null and the Riemannian case, we examine necessary conditions on flows of two-surfaces in spacetime under which the Hawking…
We consider the evolution of a compact segment of an analytic curve on the unit tangent bundle of a finite volume hyperbolic $n$-manifold under the geodesic flow. Suppose that the curve is not contained in a stable leaf of the flow. It is…
In this paper, we prove a new ergodic theorem for $\mathbb{R}^d$-actions involving averages over dilated submanifolds, thereby generalizing the theory of spherical averages. Our main result is a quantitative estimate for the error term of…
Let X be a real or complex Hilbert space of finite but large dimension d, let S(X) denote the unit sphere of X, and let u denote the normalized uniform measure on S(X). For a finite subset B of S(X), we may test whether it is approximately…
Consider a closed manifold $M$ and a time-periodic Tonelli Hamiltonian $H : \mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z} \times T^*M \to \mathbb{R}$ with flow $\phi_H$. Let $\mathcal{L} \subset T^*M$ be a Lagrangian submanifold Hamiltonianly isotopic to the zero…
A mean curvature flow starting from a closed embedded hypersurface in $R^{n+1}$ must develop singularities. We show that if the flow has only generic singularities, then the space-time singular set is contained in finitely many compact…
The fixed points of the generalized Ricci flow are the Bismut Ricci flat metrics, i.e., a generalized metric $(g,H)$ on a manifold $M$, where $g$ is a Riemannian metric and $H$ a closed $3$-form, such that $H$ is $g$-harmonic and…
Convergence properties of random ergodic averages have been extensively studied in the literature. In these notes, we exploit a uniform estimate by Cohen \& Cuny who showed convergence of a series along randomly perturbed times for…
We combine Gromov's amenable localization technique with the Poincar\'{e} duality to study the traversally generic vector flows on smooth compact manifolds $X$ with boundary. Such flows generate well-understood stratifications of $X$ by the…
We generalize results of Jones and Olsen on multi-parameter moving ergodic averages to measure-preserving actions of $\mathbb R^d$ for $d\geq 1$. In particular, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the pointwise convergence of…
We study Birkhoff sums as distributions. We obtain regularity results on such distributions for various dynamical systems with hyperbolicity, as hyperbolic linear maps on the torus and piecewise expanding maps on the interval. We also give…
Let $\{s_n\}_{n\in\N}$ be a decreasing nonsummable sequence of positive reals. In this paper, we investigate the weighted Birkhoff average $\frac{1}{S_n}\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}s_k\phi(T^kx)$ on aperiodic irreducible subshift of finite type…
