We discuss a metric description of the divergence of a (projectively) Anosov flow in dimension 3, in terms of its associated growth rates and give metric and contact geometric characterizations of when a projectively Anosov flow is Anosov.…

In this article we obtain a simple topological and dynamical systems condition which is necessary and sufficient for an arbitrary pseudo-Anosov flow in a closed, hyperbolic three manifold to be quasigeodesic. Quasigeodesic means that orbits…

We show that every atoroidal endperiodic map of an infinite-type surface can be obtained from a depth one foliation in a fibered hyperbolic 3-manifold, reversing a well-known construction of Thurston. This can be done almost-transversely to…

We investigate the combinatorial analogues, in the context of normal surfaces, of taut and transversely measured (codimension 1) foliations of 3-manifolds. We establish that the existence of certain combinatorial structures, a priori weaker…

We give a complete topological classification of transitive partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms in 3-manifolds in terms of Anosov flows, completing a program proposed by Pujals. In particular, this also allows to give a full answer to the…

In [Orbit equivalences of pseudo-Anosov flows, arXiv:2211.10505], it was proved that transitive pseudo-Anosov flows on any closed 3-manifold are determined up to orbit equivalence by the set of free homotopy classes represented by periodic…

We give complete classification of C^2-regular and non-degenerate projectively Anosov flows on three dimensional manifolds. More precisely, we prove that such a flow on a connected manifold must be either an Anosov flow or represented as a…

A pseudo-Anosov flow is said to have perfect fits if there are stable and unstable leaves that are asymptotic in the universal cover. We give an algorithm to decide, given a box decomposition of a pseudo-Anosov flow, if the flow has perfect…

We show that if $\mathcal{F}_1$ and $\mathcal{F}_2$ are two transverse minimal foliations on $M = T^1S$ then either they intersect in an Anosov foliation or there exists a Reeb-surface in the intersection foliation. The existence of a Reeb…

This paper is the third in a sequence establishing a dictionary between the combinatorics of veering triangulations equipped with appropriate filling slopes, and the dynamics of pseudo-Anosov flows (without perfect fits) on closed…

Building on the work of Eliashberg and Thurston, we associate to a taut foliation on a closed oriented $3$-manifold $M$ a Liouville structure on the thickening $[-1,1] \times M$, under suitable hypotheses. Our main result shows that this…

In this paper, we prove that given two $C^1$ foliations $\mathcal{F}$ and $\mathcal{G}$ on $\mathbb{T}^2$ which are transverse, there exists a non-null homotopic loop $\{\Phi_t\}_{t\in[0,1]}$ in $\diff^{1}(\T^2)$ such that…

In a previous paper with C. Bonatti ([5]), we have defined a general procedure to build new examples of Anosov flows in dimension 3. The procedure consists in gluing together some building blocks, called hyperbolic plugs, along their…

We prove that there exists an open and dense subset of the incompressible 3-flows of class C^2 such that, if a flow in this set has a positive volume regular invariant subset with dominated splitting for the linear Poincar\'e flow, then it…

We introduce a new method of constructing Birkhoff sections for pseudo-Anosov flows, which uses the connection between pseudo-Anosov flows and veering triangulations. This method allows for explicit constructions, as well as control over…

We prove Calegari's conjecture that every quasigeodesic flow on a closed hyperbolic 3-manifold can be deformed to a flow that is simultaneously quasigeodesic and pseudo-Anosov.

We establish a criterion for certain mapping classes of a surface homeomorphisms to be pseudo-Anosov in terms of the geometry of hyperbolic 3-manifolds and Gromov-hyperbolic surface group extensions. Specifically, any element of the…

Two flows are topologically almost commensurable if, up to removing finitely many periodic orbits and taking finite coverings, they are topologically equivalent. We prove that all suspensions of automorphisms of the 2-dimensional torus and…
