This survey explores the geometry of three-dimensional Anosov flows from the perspective of contact and symplectic geometry, following the work of Mitsumatsu, Eliashberg-Thurston, Hozoori, and the author. We also present a few original…

We give a purely contact and symplectic geometric characterization of Anosov flows in dimension 3 and discuss a framework to use tools from contact and symplectic geometry and topology in the study of Anosov dynamics. We also discuss some…

This note was written for the proceedings of the conference "Symplectic Geometry and Anosov Flows" held in Heideleberg in July 2024. It is meant as an invitation to the study of certain families of contact structures, centering around the…

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,…

This paper is an exposition of the major results of P. Eberlein's paper, "When is a geodesic flow of Anosov type? I," in the special case when the manifold $M$ is a surface. We follow Eberlein's coverage closely, adding details when…

This is an expository note intended to illustrate current research in topological study of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms in dimension 3 with a beautiful result due to Margulis and Plante-Thurston on topological obstructions for a…

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…

We prove that in dimension 3, Anosov flows which are $\mathbb{R}$-covered and skewed are orbit equivalent to Reeb-Anosov flows. We characterize the existence of an invariant contact form or of a Birkhoff section with a given boundary, in…

The first half of this paper is concerned with the topology of the space $\AAA(M)$ of (not necessarily contact) Anosov vector fields on the unit tangent bundle $M$ of closed oriented hyperbolic surfaces $\Sigma$. We show that there are…

We classify five dimensional Anosov flows with smooth decomposition which are in addition transversely symplectic. Up to finite covers and a special time change, we find exectly the suspensions of symplectic hyperbolic automorphisms of four…

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.…

We show that the action on its orbit space induced by a pseudo-Anosov flow on a closed $3$-manifold (and more general Anosov-like actions) can be seen as an isometric action on a Gromov-hyperbolic space. When the flow is not $\R$-covered,…

Building upon the work of Mitsumatsu and Hozoori, we establish a complete homotopy correspondence between three-dimensional Anosov flows and certain pairs of contact forms that we call Anosov Liouville pairs. We show a similar…

We propose a generalization of the concept of discretized Anosov flows that covers a wide class of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms in 3-manifolds, and that we call collapsed Anosov flows. They are related with Anosov flows via a self…

We construct Anosov flows in certain circle bundles over closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds, producing counterexamples to a conjecture of Verjovsky. Some of these 4-manifolds admit infinitely many distinct Anosov flows up to orbit equivalence.…

Let F be a foliation in a closed 3-manifold with negatively curved fundamental group and suppose that F is almost transverse to a quasigeodesic pseudo-Anosov flow. We show that the leaves of the foliation in the universal cover extend…

We prove a new result allowing to construct Anosov flows in dimension 3 by gluing building blocks. By a building block, we mean a compact 3-manifold with boundary $P$, equipped with a $C^1$ vector field $X$, such that the maximal invariant…

Starting with a pseudo-Anosov flow $\varphi$ on a closed hyperbolic $3$-manifold $M$ and an embedded surface $S \subset M$ that is (almost) transverse to $\varphi$, we relate the hyperbolic geometry of $M$ (e.g. volume, circumference, short…
