A fast method is presented for computing the topological entropy of braids on the torus. This work is motivated by the need to analyze large braids when studying two-dimensional flows via the braiding of a large number of particle…

Suppose we are given a compact Riemannian manifold (Q,g)with completely integrable geodesic flow. Let G be a compact connected Lie group acting freely on Q by isometries. The natural question arises: will the geodesic flow on Q/G equipped…

In this article, we consider the geodesic flow on a compact rank $1$ Riemannian manifold $M$ without focal points, whose universal cover is denoted by $X$. On the ideal boundary $X(\infty)$ of $X$, we show the existence and uniqueness of…

We establish an abstract local ergodic theorem, under suitable space-time scaling, for the (boundary-driven) symmetric exclusion process on an increasing sequence of balls covering an infinite weighted graph. The proofs are based on 1-block…

As we have proved in [L], the geodesic flows associated with the flat metrics on T^2 minimize the polynomial entropy. In this paper, we show that, among the geodesic flows that are Bott integrable and dynamically coherent, the geodesic…

We study the geodesic flow of geometrically finite quotients $\Omega/{\Gamma}$ of Hilbert geometries, in particular its recurrence properties. We prove that, under a geometrical assumption on the cusps, the geodesic flow is uniformly…

We exhibit orbits of the geodesic flow on a hyperbolic surface with at least one cusp such that every tubular neighborhood contains uncountably many distinct geodesic flow orbits. The proof relies on new phenomena, namely the existence of…

Perturbed geodesics are trajectories of particles moving on a semi-Riemannian manifold in the presence of a potential. Our purpose here is to extend to perturbed geodesics on semi-Riemannian manifolds the well known Morse Index Theorem.…

The aim of this paper is to extend the Morse theory for geodesics to the conical manifolds. We define these manifolds as submanifolds of $\R^n$ with a finite number of conical singularities. To formulate a good Morse theory we must use an…

Brake orbits and homoclinics of autonomous dynamical systems correspond, via Maupertuis principle, to geodesics in Riemannian manifolds endowed with a metric which is singular on the boundary (Jacobi metric). Motivated by the classical, yet…
