We consider magnetic flows on compact quotients of the 3-dimensional solvable geometry Sol determined by the usual left-invariant metric and the distinguished monopole. We show that these flows have positive Liouville entropy and therefore…
In this paper we prove the existence of infinitely many closed Reeb orbits for a certain class of contact manifolds. This result can be viewed as a contact analogue of the Hamiltonian Conley conjecture. The manifolds for which the contact…
We show that whenever a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism or a Reeb flow has a finite number of periodic orbits, the mean indices of these orbits must satisfy a resonance relation, provided that the ambient manifold meets some natural…
In the first part of this paper, we construct infinitely many hyperbolic closed 3-manifolds which admit no symplectic fillable contact structure. All these 3-manifolds are obtained by Dehn surgeries along L-space knots or L-space…
This paper is a review of recent and classical results on integrable geodesic flows on Riemannian manifolds and topological obstructions to integrability. We also discuss some open problems.
We consider Reeb flows on the tight $3$-sphere admitting a pair of closed orbits forming a Hopf link. If the rotation numbers associated to the transverse linearized dynamics at these orbits fail to satisfy a certain resonance condition…
In this work we study the geodesic flow on nilmanifolds associated to graphs. We are interested in the construction of first integrals to show complete integrability on some compact quotients. Also examples of integrable geodesic flows and…
We propose a definition for analytic torsion of the contact complex on contact manifolds. We show it coincides with Ray-Singer torsion on any 3-dimensional CR Seifert manifold equipped with a unitary representation. In this particular case…
We construct equivariant and Bott-type Seiberg-Witten Floer homology and cohomology for 3-manifolds, in particular rational homology spheres, and prove their diffeomorphism invariance. We present several versions of the equivariant theory:…
We prove a rigidity result for group actions on the line whose elements have what we call "hyperbolic-like" dynamics. Using this, we give a spectral rigidity theorem for $\mathbb{R}$-covered Anosov flows on 3-manifolds, characterizing orbit…
In this note, we discuss the mean curvature flow of graphs of maps between Riemannian manifolds. Special emphasis will be placed on estimates of the flow as a non-linear parabolic system of differential equations. Several global existence…
The paper is devoted to the study of topological properties, structure and classification of Morse flows with fixed points on the boundary of three-dimensional manifolds. We construct a complete topological invariant of a Morse flow,…
We classify global surfaces of section for flows on 3-manifolds defining Seifert fibrations. We discuss branched coverings -- one way or the other -- between surfaces of section for the Hopf flow and those for any other Seifert fibration of…
We show that the differential in positive equivariant symplectic homology or linearized contact homology vanishes for non-degenerate Reeb flows with a continuous invariant Lagrangian subbundle (e.g. Anosov Reeb flows). Several applications…
It is known that every contact form on a closed three-manifold has at least two simple Reeb orbits, and a generic contact form has infinitely many. We show that if there are exactly two simple Reeb orbits, then the contact form is…
These are notes based on a mini-course at the conference RIEMain in Contact, held in Cagliari, Sardinia, in June 2018. The main theme is the connection between Reeb dynamics and topology. Topics discussed include traps for Reeb flows, plugs…
Our purpose here is to adapt the results of Geodesic circle foliations for Reeb flows or Hamiltonian flows on contact manifolds. Consequently, all periods are exactly the same if the contact manifold is connected and all orbits on the…
This paper investigates timelike conformal vector fields on closed Lorentzian $3$-manifolds and shows that, although these fields form a broader class than Killing fields, their behavior in dimension three is nonetheless remarkably rigid.…
We establish the existence of a secondary Reeb orbit set with quantitative action and linking bounds for any contact form on the standard tight three-sphere admitting the standard transverse positive $T(p,q)$ torus knot as an elliptic Reeb…
We classify contact toric 3-manifolds up to contactomorphism, through explicit descriptions, building off of work by Lerman [Lerman03]. As an application, we classify all contact structures on 3-manifolds that can be realised as a concave…
