This article considers inverse problems on closed Riemannian surfaces whose geodesic flow is Anosov. We prove spectral rigidity for any Anosov surface and injectivity of the geodesic ray transform on solenoidal 2-tensors. We also establish…

We introduce a new family of thermostat flows on the unit tangent bundle of an oriented Riemannian $2$-manifold. Suitably reparametrised, these flows include the geodesic flow of metrics of negative Gauss curvature and the geodesic flow…

Recall that two geodesics in a negatively curved surface $S$ are of the same type if their free homotopy classes differ by a homeomorphism of the surface. In this note we study the distribution in the unit tangent bundle of the geodesics of…

In the recent articles \cite{PSU1,PSU3}, a number of tensor tomography results were proved on two-dimensional manifolds. The purpose of this paper is to extend some of these methods to manifolds of any dimension. A central concept is the…

This article considers the attenuated transport equation on Riemannian surfaces in the light of a novel twistor correspondence under which matrix attenuations correspond to holomorphic vector bundles on a complex surface. The main result is…

In this paper, we study transversely holomorphic partially hyperbolic flows, i.e. those whose holonomy pseudo-group is given by biholomorphic maps. We prove in the seven-dimensional case that under the assumption that the subcenter…

This work is dedicated to studying holomorphic distributions on Grassmann manifolds and smooth quadric hypersurfaces. In special, we prove, under certain conditions, when the tangent and conormal sheaves of a distribution splits as a sum of…

Transport twistor spaces are degenerate complex $2$-dimensional manifolds $Z$ that complexify transport problems on Riemannian surfaces, appearing, e.g., in geometric inverse problems. This article considers maps $\beta\colon Z\to…

We study the geodesic flow on the unit cotangent bundle $M=S^{*}\mathcal{N}$ of a closed hyperbolic surface $\mathcal{N}$, using the representation theory of $SL_{2}(\mathbb{R})$. We construct explicit $X$-adapted Hilbert spaces, obtained…

Finding appropriate notions of discrete holomorphic maps and, more generally, conformal immersions of discrete Riemann surfaces into 3-space is an important problem of discrete differential geometry and computer visualization. We propose an…

For Anosov flows preserving a smooth measure on a closed manifold $\mathcal{M}$, we define a natural self-adjoint operator $\Pi$ which maps into the space of invariant distributions in $\cap_{u<0} H^{u}(\mathcal{M})$ and whose kernel is…

In the literature on X-ray transform and Transport Twistor (TT) spaces, blow-down maps (or maps with holomorphic blow-down structure as defined in [BMP24]) are maps that desingularize the degenerate complex structure of the TT space of an…

In the present work we consider the behavior of the geodesic flow on the unit tangent bundle of the 2-torus $T^2$ for an arbitrary Riemannian metric. A natural non-negative quantity which measures the complexity of the geodesic flow is the…

The article surveys inverse problems related to the twisted geodesic flows on Riemannian manifolds with boundary, focusing on the generalized ray transforms, tensor tomography, and rigidity problems. The twisted geodesic flow generalizes…

We investigate the twistor space and the Grassmannian fibre bundle of a Lorentzian 4-space with natural almost optical structures and its induced CR-structures. The twistor spaces of the Lorentzian space forms $\R^4_1, \Di{S}^4_1$ and…

The aim of this article is to introduce invariants of oriented, smooth, closed four-manifolds, built using the Floer homology theories defined in two earlier papers (math.SG/0101206 and math.SG/0105202). This four-dimensional theory also…

We investigate certain natural connections between subriemannian geometry and hyperbolic dynamical systems. In particular, we study dynamically defined horizontal distributions which split into two integrable ones and ask: how is the energy…
