Every oriented closed geodesic on the modular surface has a canonically associated knot in its unit tangent bundle coming from the periodic orbit of the geodesic flow. We study the volume of the associated knot complement with respect to…
In spaces of nonpositive curvature the existence of isometrically embedded flat (hyper)planes is often granted by apparently weaker conditions on large scales. We show that some such results remain valid for metric spaces with non-unique…
Using the Selberg trace formula, we show that for a hyperbolic 2-orbifold, the spectrum of the Laplacian acting on functions determines, and is determined by, the following data: the volume; the total length of the mirror boundary; the…
In this paper we study topological aspects of the dynamics of the foliated horocycle flow on flat projective bundles over hyperbolic surfaces and we derive ergodic consequences. If $\rho : \Gamma \to {\rm PSL}(n+1,\mathbb{R})$ is a…
For quotients of the $n+1$-dimensional hyperbolic space by a convex co-compact group $\Gamma$, we obtain a formula relating the renormalized trace of the wave operator with the resonances of the Laplacian and some conformal invariants of…
We present a mechanism for producing oscillations along the lift of the Teichm\"uller geodesic flow to the (real) Hodge bundle, as the basepoint surface is deformed by a unipotent element of $\text{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$. Invoking…
We investigate the spectrum of the spin Dirac operator on families of hyperbolic surfaces where a set of disjoint simple geodesics shrink to $0$, under the hypothesis that the spin structure is non-trivial along each pinched geodesic. The…
We develop a framework for dimension reduction, mode decomposition, and nonparametric forecasting of data generated by ergodic dynamical systems. This framework is based on a representation of the Koopman and Perron-Frobenius groups of…
We investigate the dynamics of passive particles in a two-dimensional incompressible open flow composed of a fixed topographical point vortex and a background current with a periodic component. The tracer dynamics is found to be typically…
We consider the flow of Burgers' equation on an open set of (small) functions in $L^2([0,1])$. We derive explicitly the Koopman decomposition of the Burgers' flow. We identify the frequencies and the coefficients of this decomposition as…
We consider semi-excited resonances created by a periodic orbit of hyperbolic type for Schr\"odinger type operators with a small "Planck constant". They are defined within an analytic framework based on the semi-classical quantization of…
This note is about the spectral properties of transfer operators associated to smooth hyperbolic dynamics. In the first two sections (written in 2006), we state our new results relating such spectra with dynamical determinants, first…
We construct a Poincar\'e section for the horocycle flow on the modular surface $SL(2, \R)/SL(2, \Z)$, and study the associated first return map, which coincides with a transformation (the {\it BCZ map}) defined by Boca-Cobeli-Zaharescu. We…
We compare the quantisation of linear systems of bosons and fermions. We recall the appearance of projectively flat connection and results on parallel transport in the quantisation of bosons. We then discuss pre-quantisation and…
We study the dynamics of the geodesic and horocycle flows of the unit tangent bundle $(\hat M, T^1\mathcal{F})$ of a compact minimal lamination $(M,\mathcal F)$ by negatively curved surfaces. We give conditions under which the action of the…
We consider the geodesic flow on a complete connected negatively curved manifold. We show that the set of invariant borel probability measures contains a dense $G_\delta$-subset consisting of ergodic measures fully supported on the…
We prove effective equidistribution of non-closed horocycles in the unit tangent bundle of infinite-volume geometrically finite hyperbolic surfaces.
A theoretic framework for dynamics is obtained by transferring dynamics from state space to its dual space. As a result, the linear structure where dynamics are analytically decomposed to subcomponents and invariant subspaces decomposition…
We study consequences and applications of the folklore statement that every double complex over a field decomposes into so-called squares and zigzags. This result makes questions about the associated cohomology groups and spectral sequences…
We compute the trace formula for the magnetic Laplacian on a compact hyperbolic surface of constant curvature with constant magnetic field for energies above the Mane critical level of the corresponding magnetic geodesic flow. We discuss…
