We define an extension of the geometric Lorenz model, defined on the three sphere. This geometric model has an invariant one dimensional trefoil knot, a union of invariant manifolds of the singularities. It is similar to the invariant…

We study compact non-selfsimilar ancient noncollapsed solutions to the mean curvature flow in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, called ancient ovals. Our main result is the classification of $k$-ovals: any $k$-oval (characterized by having cylindrical…

In this paper, we establish the existence of periodic orbits of a twisted geodesic flow on all low energy levels and in all dimensions whenever the magnetic field form is symplectic and spherically rational. This is a consequence of a more…

We show that if K: P \to R is an autonomous Hamiltonian on a symplectic manifold (P,\Omega) which attains 0 as a Morse-Bott nondegenerate minimum along a symplectic submanifold M, and if c_1(TP)|_M vanishes in real cohomology, then the…

Given an embedded cylinder in an arbitrary surface, we give a gauge theoretic definition of the associated Goldman flow, which is a circle action on a dense open subset of the moduli space of equivalence classes of flat SU(2)-connections…

In this paper we describe the topological behavior of the geodesic flow for a class of closed 3-manifolds realized as quotients of nonstrictly convex Hilbert geometries, constructed and described explicitly by Benoist. These manifolds are…

This paper corresponds to Section 8 of arXiv:1912.05774v3 [math.GT]. The contents until Section 7 are published in Annali di Matematica Pura ed Applicata as a separate paper. In that paper, it is proved that for any positive flow-spine P of…

Let $(S,\Phi)$ be a pair of a closed oriented surface and $\Phi$ be a real analytic flow with finitely many singularities. Let $x$ be a point of $S$ with the polycycle $\omega$-limit set $\omega(x)$. In this paper we give topological…

This paper investigates which smooth manifolds arise as quotients (orbit spaces) of flows of vector fields. Such quotient maps were already known to be surjective on fundamental groups, but this paper shows that every epimorphism of…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a closed connected co-orientable contact $3$-manifold $(M,\xi)$ to be a standard lens space based on assumptions on the Reeb flow associated to a defining contact form. Our methods also…

The topological classification of gradient like Morse-Smale vector fields and diffeomorphisms on 3-manifolds was obtained.

We show that every pseudo-Anosov flow on a graph manifold is almost equivalent, i.e. orbit equivalent in the complement of a finite collection of closed orbits, to a totally periodic pseudo-Anosov flow or a suspension Anosov flow. The proof…

This paper proves that, at the first singular time for a smoothly immersed surface moving by mean curvature flow in a n-manifold, each tangent flow is given by a smooth, branched shrinker, possibly with multiplicity. If n=3 and if the…

We describe scenarios for the emergence of Shilnikov attractors, i.e. strange attractors containing a saddle-focus with two-dimensional unstable manifold, in the case of three-dimensional flows and maps. The presented results are…

In this paper, we describe geometrical constructions to obtain triangulations of connected sums of closed orientable triangulated 3-manifolds. Using these constructions, we show that it takes time polynomial in the number of tetrahedra to…

Following on from our previous study of the geodesic flow on three dimensional ellipsoid with equal middle semi-axes, here we study the remaining cases: Ellipsoids with two sets of equal semi-axes with $SO(2) \times SO(2)$ symmetry,…

The closed 3-manifolds of constant positive curvature were classified long ago by Seifert and Threlfall. Using well-known information about the orthogonal group O(4), we calculate their full isometry groups Isom(M), determine which elliptic…

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…
