We study types of mapping classes which arise as a product of a given mapping class and powers of certain pure mapping classes. We derive an explicit constant depending only on a surface such that almost all above pure mapping classes give…
We give explicit pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms with vanishing Sah-Arnoux-Fathi invariant. Any translation surface whose Veech group is commensurable to any of a large class of triangle groups is shown to have an affine pseudo-Anosov…
In this project, we develop a new connection between the dynamics of quadratic polynomials on the complex plane and the dynamics of homeomorphisms of surfaces. In particular, given a quadratic polynomial, we investigate whether one can…
Let $S$ be a Riemann surface of type $(p,n)$ with $3p+n>4$ and $n\geq 1$. Let $\alpha_1,\alpha_2\subset S$ be two simple closed geodesics such that $\{\alpha_1, \alpha_2\}$ fills $S$. It was shown by Thurston that most maps obtained through…
In earlier work, relying on work of Agol-Gu\'eritaud and Landry-Minsky-Taylor, we showed that given a pseudo-Anosov flow $(Y,\phi)$ and a collection of closed orbits $\mathcal{C}$ satisfying the `no perfect fit' condition, one can construct…
We investigate a phenomenon observed by W. Thurston wherein one constructs a pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism on the limit set of a certain lift of a piecewise-linear expanding interval map. We reconcile this construction with a special subclass…
We construct sequences of pseudo-Anosov mapping classes whose dilatations behave asymptotically like the inverse of the Euler characteristic of the surface they are defined on. These sequences are used to show that if the genus, g, and…
Anosov families were introduced by A. Fisher and P. Arnoux motivated by generalizing the notion of Anosov diffeomorphism defined on a compact Riemannian manifold. Roughly, an Anosov family is a two-sided sequence of diffeomorphisms (or…
We will discuss theoretical and experimental results concerning comparison of entropy of pseudo-Anosov maps and volume of their mapping tori. Recent study of Weil-Petersson geometry of the Teichm\"uller space tells us that they admit linear…
We introduce a new perspective on a procedure for generating pseudo-Anosov homemorphisms from postcritically finite interval maps. The central idea is the realization of a tree structure on one such family of pseudo-Anosovs: individual…
We provide an integral combinatorial characterization of pseudo-Anosov maps on closed oriented surfaces of genus g > 1. We show that an orientation-preserving pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism with orientable foliations and fixing all critical…
Inspired by an example of Grebogi et al [1], we study a class of model systems which exhibit the full two-step scenario for the nonautonomous Hopf bifurcation, as proposed by Arnold [2]. The specific structure of these models allows a…
In this paper, we construct cw-expansive homeomorphisms on compact surfaces of genus greater than or equal to zero with a fixed point whose local stable set is connected but not locally connected. This provides an affirmative answer to…
For certain pseudo-Anosov flows $\phi$ on closed $3$-manifolds, unpublished work of Agol--Gu\'eritaud produces a veering triangulation $\tau$ on the manifold $M$ obtained by deleting $\phi$'s singular orbits. We show that $\tau$ can be…
We characterise smooth curves in P^3 whose blow-up produces a threefold with anticanonical divisor big and nef. These are curves C of degree d and genus g lying on a smooth quartic, such that (i) $4d-30 \le g\le 14$ or $(g,d) = (19,12)$,…
In this text we (re)-tell the theory of pseudo-Anosov flows on 3-manifolds with the orbit space as the central character; via a streamlined framework called {\em Anosov-like group actions}. This brings a simplified and unified perspective,…
In [23], Slipantschuk, Bandtlow and Just gave concrete examples of Anosov diffeomorphisms of the two-torus for which their resonances could be completely described. Their approach was based on composition operators acting on analytic…
This paper is devoted to higher dimensional Anosov flows and consists of two parts. In the first part, we investigate fiberwise Anosov flows on affine torus bundles which fiber over 3-dimensional Anosov flows. We provide a dichotomy result…
A simple quasiperiodically forced one-dimensional cubic map is shown to exhibit very many types of routes to chaos via strange nonchaotic attractors (SNAs) with reference to a two-parameter $(A-f)$ space. The routes include transitions to…
Let $F',F$ be any two closed orientable surfaces of genus $g'>g\ge 1$, and $f:F\to F$ be any pseudo-Anosov map. Then we can "extend" $f$ to be a pseudo-Anosov map $f':F'\to F'$ so that there is a fiber preserving degree one map $M(F',f')\to…
