Let $f:M\rightarrow M$ be a $C^1$ diffeomorphism with a dominated splitting on a compact Riemanian manifold $M$ without boundary. We state and prove several sufficient conditions for the topological entropy of $f$ to be positive. The…
Let $s > 1$ be a large integer, and let $f$ be a diffeomorphism sufficiently close in the $C^{s}$-topology to the time-1 map of a $C^{s}$ generic volume-preserving Anosov flow on a $3$-dimensional compact manifold. We show that for any…
We consider a compact 3-dimensional boundaryless Riemannian manifold M and the set of divergence-free (or zero divergence) vector fields without singularities, then we prove that this set has a C1-residual such that any vector field inside…
Suppose that $A \subset \mathbb{R}$ has positive upper density, \[ \limsup_{|I| \to \infty} \frac{|A \cap I|}{|I|} = \delta > 0,\] and $P(t) \in \mathbb{R}[t]$ is a polynomial with no constant or linear term, or more generally a non-flat…
We prove H\"ormander's type hypoellipticity theorem for stochastic partial differential equations when the coefficients are only measurable with respect to the time variable. The need for such kind of results comes from filtering theory of…
Liouville theorem (LT) reveals robust incompressibility of distribution function in phase space, given arbitrary potentials. However, its quantum generalization, Wigner flow, is compressible, i.e., LT is only conditionally true (e.g., for…
In this paper, we show that any topologically transitive Anosov flow on a closed three-dimensional manifold with the orientable weak stable and unstable foliations turns into an R-covered one by a Goodman-Fried surgery along periodic…
This note is a continuation of [CMZ21]. We shall show that an ancient Ricci flow with uniformly bounded Nash entropy must also have uniformly bounded $\nu$-functional. Consequently, on such an ancient solution there are uniform logarithmic…
Forty-five years after the point de d\'epart [1] of density functional theory, its applications in chemistry and the study of electronic structures keep steadily growing. However, the precise form of the energy functional in terms of the…
We derive a positive mass theorem for asymptotically flat manifolds with boundary whose mean curvature satisfies a sharp estimate involving the conformal Green's function. The theorem also holds if the conformal Green's function is replaced…
We generalize leading-order asymptotics of a form of the heat content of a submanifold (van den Berg & Gilkey 2015) to the setting of time-dependent diffusion processes in the limit of vanishing diffusivity. Such diffusion processes arise…
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…
We consider the set of H\"older continuous cocycles over a finite shift acting on a group of Lipschitz homeomorphisms Lip(G), where G is a metrisable compact topological group. We establish that two dominated cocycles that coincide over…
We prove that for some manifolds $M$ the set of robustly transitive partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms of $M$ with one-dimensional nonhyperbolic centre direction contains a $C^1$-open and dense subset of diffeomorphisms with nonhyperbolic…
We use adiabatic limits to study foliated manifolds. The Bott connection naturally shows up as the adiabatic limit of Levi-Civita connections. As an application, we then construct certain natural elliptic operators associated to the…
We prove a sharp phase transition in the regularity of the extremal distribution $E^s \oplus E^u$ for $C^\infty$ volume-preserving partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms on closed $3$-manifolds: if $E^s \oplus E^u$ is Lipschitz, then it is…
For an endomorphism it is known that if all the points in the manifold have dense sets of pre-images then the dynamical system is transitive. The inverse has been shown for a residual set of points but the the exact inverse has not yet been…
We extend the vanishing theorem for the Seiberg-Witten invariants of a manifold with positive scalar curvature to the case when the curvature is allowed to be negative on a set of small volume. (The precise curvature bounds are described in…
A subalgebra $A$ of the algebra $B(\mathcal{H})$ of bounded linear operators on a separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ is said to be catalytic if every transitive subalgebra $\mathcal{T}\subset B(\mathcal{H})$ containing it is strongly…
Let $M$ be a $C^{2}$-smooth Riemannian surface. A classical theorem in differential geometry states that the Gauss curvature function $K : M \to \mathbb{R}$ vanishes everywhere if and only if the surface is locally isometric to the…
