A flow on a 3-manifold is left-handed if any two ergodic invariant measures have negative linking number. We prove that on a 2-sphere of revolution whose curvature is $1/4$-pinched the geodesic flow is left-handed. Conversely, for every…
We construct a pair of transverse genuine laminations on an atoroidal 3-manifold admitting transversely orientable uniform 1-cochain. The laminations are induced by the uniform 1-cochain and they are indeed the "straightening" of the coarse…
We provide an affirmative answer to the Cr Closing Lemma, r>1, for a large class of flows defined on every closed surface.
The goal of this paper is to explore the relationship between the geometric properties of an Anosov flow on a closed manifold $M$ and the analytic properties of its infinitesimal generator $X$ as a linear operator on the space of smooth…
In a recent paper, Chen, Erchenko and Gogolev have proven that if a Riemannian manifold with boundary has hyperbolic geodesic trapped set, then it can be embedded into a compact manifold whose geodesic flow is Anosov. They have to introduce…
Given a general pseudo-Anosov flow in a three manifold, the orbit space of the lifted flow to the universal cover is homeomorphic to an open disk. We compactify this orbit space with an ideal circle boundary. If there are no perfect fits…
We provide abstract conditions which imply the existence of a robustly invariant neighbourhood of a global section of a fibre bundle flow. We then apply such a result to the bundle flow generated by an Anosov flow when the fibre is the…
Motivated by problems in the study of Anosov and pseudo-Anosov flows on 3-manifolds, we characterize when a pair $(L^+, L^-)$ of subsets of transverse laminations of the circle can be completed to a pair of transverse foliations of the…
We present a new approach to hyperbolic plugs, via a construction of bicontact plugs on 3-manifolds with boundary that are surface bundles over the circle. The boundary components are quasi transverse tori, and we prove a gluing theorem…
We build an example of a non-transitive, dynamically coherent partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism $f$ on a closed $3$-manifold with exponential growth in its fundamental group such that $f^n$ is not isotopic to the identity for all $n\neq…
Let $M_k$ ($k\in \mathbb Z$ and $|k|>4$) be the $3$-manifold obtained by doing $k$ Dehn surgery on the figure-eight knot, and $X_t$ be the canonical Anosov flow on $M_k$ that is constructed by Goodman. The main result of this article is…
Let S be a closed orientable surface of genus at least 2 and let G be a semisimple real algebraic group of non-compact type. We consider a class of representations from the fundamental group of S to G called positively ratioed…
This is the first article in a series that aims at classifying partial sections of flows, that is a general family of transverse surfaces. In this part, we deal with the dynamical aspect of the question. Given a flow on a compact manifold…
We give a purely contact and symplectic geometric characterization of Anosov flows in dimension 3 and discuss a framework to use tools from contact and symplectic geometry and topology in the study of Anosov dynamics. We also discuss some…
In this paper, we show that a compact affine manifold endowed with an Affine Anosov transformation is finitely covered by a complete affine nilmanifold.
A flow defined by a nonsingular smooth vector field $X$ on a closed manifold $M$ is said to be parameter rigid if given any real valued smooth function $f$ on $M$, there are a smooth funcion $g$ and a constant $c$ such that $f=X(g)+c$…
We construct a class of Riemannian metrics in closed surfaces of genus greater than one, having Anosov geodesic flows, and some regions of positive curvature, such that for each such surface, there exists a smooth curve of conformal…
In this short note, we prove that every closed, oriented, connected 3-manifold arises as Dehn surgery along a braid positive link.
We show that a complete contractible 3-manifold with positive scalar curvature and bounded geometry must be $\mathbb R^3$. We also show that an open handlebody of genus larger than 1 does not admit complete metrics with positive scalar…
Thurston introduced the notion of a universal circle associated to a taut foliation of a $3$-manifold as a way of organizing the ideal circle boundaries of its leaves into a single circle action. Calegari--Dunfield proved that every taut…
