We prove a compactness result for gradient flow lines in a general set-up which comprises both the situation of Morse gradient flow lines as well as Floer cylinders converging to a critical submanifold respectively. For the compactness…
With a view to constructing a Morse/Floer homology theory for CMC hypersurfaces, we prove a compactness result modulo broken trajectories for eternal mean curvature flows with forcing term in compact, hyperbolic manifolds.
We prove that a Morse-Smale gradient-like flow on a closed manifold has a "system of compatible invariant stable foliations" that is analogous to the object introduced by Palis and Smale in their proof of the structural stability of…
Let $\Lambda$ be a closed, connected, spin Legendrian submanifold of the 1-jet space of a smooth $n$-dimensional manifold. We give a coherent orientation scheme for the moduli space of rigid Morse flow trees of $\Lambda$, implying that the…
Given a singular Riemannian foliation on a compact Riemannian manifold, we study the mean curvature flow equation with a regular leaf as initial datum. We prove that if the leaves are compact and the mean curvature vector field is basic,…
We extend the Cohen-Jones-Segal construction of stable homotopy types associated to flow categories of Morse-Smale functions $f$ to the setting where $f$ is equivariant under a finite group action and is Morse but no longer Morse-Smale.…
We circumvent one of the roadblocks in associating Floer homotopy types to monotone Lagrangians, namely the curvature phenomena occurring in high dimensions. Given $N \ge 3$ and $R$ a connective $\mathbb E_1$-ring spectrum, there is a…
We present calculations of the stability of planar fronts in two mean field models of diffusion limited growth. The steady state solution for the front can exist for a continuous family of velocities, we show that the selected velocity is…
In this article, we introduce a new type of mean curvature flow for bounded star-shaped domains in space forms and prove its longtime existence, exponential convergence without any curvature assumption. Along this flow, the enclosed volume…
This preliminary report contains a sketch of the proof of the following result: a slowly divergent Teichmuller geodesic satisfying a certain logarithmic law is determined by a uniquely ergodic measured foliation.
In this paper we investigate the mean curvature flow (MCF) of a regular leaf of a closed generalized isoparametric foliation as initial datum, generalizing previous results of Radeschi and first author. We show that, under bounded curvature…
We use dynamics of the Teichm$\ddot{\mathrm{u}}$ller geodesic flow to show that the action of the mapping class group on the space of projective measured foliations has stable type $III_{\lambda}$ for some $\lambda>0$. We do this by…
We consider two transitive $3$-dimensional Anosov flows which do not preserve volume and which are continuously conjugate to each other. Then, disregarding certain exceptional cases, such as flows with $C^1$ regular stable or unstable…
This is one in a series of papers devoted to the foundations of Symplectic Field Theory sketched in [Y Eliashberg, A Givental and H Hofer, Introduction to Symplectic Field Theory, Geom. Funct. Anal. Special Volume, Part II (2000) 560--673].…
We generalize the Cohen-Jones-Segal construction to the Morse-Bott setting. In other words, we define framings for Morse-Bott analogues of flow categories and associate a stable homotopy type to this data. We use this to recover the stable…
In this paper we present a new approach to Morse theory based on the de Rham-Federer theory of currents. The full classical theory is derived in a transparent way. The methods carry over uniformly to the equivariant and the holomorphic…
In the first half of the paper we construct a Morse-type theory on certain spaces of braid diagrams. We define a topological invariant of closed positive braids which is correlated with the existence of invariant sets of parabolic flows…
Given a smooth asymptotically conical self-expander that is strictly unstable we construct a (singular) Morse flow line of the expander functional that connects it to a stable self-expander. This flow is monotone in a suitable sense and has…
We prove the existence of a discrete correlation spectrum for Morse-Smale flows acting on smooth forms on a compact manifold. This is done by constructing spaces of currents with anisotropic Sobolev regularity on which the Lie derivative…
Framed flow categories were introduced by Cohen-Jones-Segal as a way of encoding the flow data associated to a Floer functional. A framed flow category gives rise to a CW-complex with one cell for each object of the category. The idea is…
