The author has previously constructed a class of admissible vector fields on the path space of an elliptic diffusion process $x$ taking values in a closed compact manifold. In this Note the existence of flows for this class of vector fields…
We determine topological and algebraic conditions for a germ of holomorphic foliation $\mathcal F(X)$ induced by a generic vector field $X$ on $(\mathbb{C}^{3},0)$ to have a holomorphic first integral, i.e., a germ of holomorphic map $F…
We show uniqueness of Ricci flows starting at a surface of uniformly negative curvature, with the assumption that the flows become complete instantaneously. Together with the more general existence result proved in [10], this settles the…
The limiting behavior of the normalized K\"ahler-Ricci flow for manifolds with positive first Chern class is examined under certain stability conditions. First, it is shown that if the Mabuchi K-energy is bounded from below, then the scalar…
We show that for a $C^1$ generic vector field $X$ away from homoclinic tangencies, a nontrivial Lyapunov stable chain recurrence class is a homoclinic class. The proof uses an argument with $C^2$ vector fields approaching $X$ in $C^1$…
Let $M$ be a closed Riemannian manifold with a parallel 1-form $\Omega$. We prove two theorems about the curve shortening flow in $M$. One is that the {\csf} $\ct$ in $M$ exists for all $t$ in $[0, \infty)$, if it satisfies $\Omega(T)\geq…
Structurally stable (rough) flows on surfaces have only finitely many singularities and finitely many closed orbits, all of which are hyperbolic, and they have no trajectories joining saddle points. The violation of the last property leads…
Let $X$ be a normal, connected and projective variety over an algebraically closed field $k$. It is known that a vector bundle $V$ on $X$ is essentially finite if and only if it is trivialized by a proper surjective morphism $f:Y\to X$. In…
For linear flows on vector bundles, it is analyzed when subbundles in the Selgrade decomposition yield chain transitive subsets for the induced flow on the associated Poincar\'e sphere bundle.
We classify affine varieties with an action of a connected, reductive algebraic group such that the group is isomorphic to an open orbit in the variety. This is accomplished by associating a set of one-parameter subgroups of the group to…
We consider the incompressible Euler equations in a (possibly multiply connected) bounded domain of R^2, for flows with bounded vorticity, for which Yudovich proved, in 1963, global existence and uniqueness of the solution. We prove that if…
We give the classification of all complete algebraic vector fields on Danielewski surfaces (smooth surfaces given by $xy=p(z)$). We use the fact that for each such vector field there exists a certain fibration that is preserved under its…
Rayleigh showed that inviscid flow is unstable if the velocity profile has an inflection point in parallel flows. However, whether viscous flows is unstable or not is still not proved so far when there is an inflection point in the velocity…
A vector field s on a Riemannian manifold M is said to be harmonic if there exists a member of a 2-parameter family of generalised Cheeger-Gromoll metrics on TM with respect to which s is a harmonic section. If M is a simply-connected…
We use entropy theory as a new tool to study sectional hyperbolic flows in any dimension. We show that for $C^1$ flows, every sectional hyperbolic set $\Lambda$ is entropy expansive, and the topological entropy varies continuously with the…
This paper gives a framework to study a continuum limit of a gradient flow on a graph where the number of vertices increases in an appropriate way. As examples we prove the convergence of a discrete total variation flow and a discrete…
For integrable Hamiltonian systems with two degrees of freedom whose Hamiltonian vector fields have incomplete flows, an analogue of the Liouville theorem is established. A canonical Liouville fibration is defined by means of an "exact"…
We provide a combinatorial presentation of the set F of 3-dimensional generic flows, namely the set of pairs (M,v) with M a compact oriented 3-manifold and v a nowhere-zero vector field on M having generic behaviour along the boundary of M,…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of smooth Lyapunov 1-forms for the flow of a smooth vector field in terms of the behavior of certain locally finite invariant measures. The main statement generalizes a result of…
It is well-known that the flows generated by two smooth vector fields commute, if the Lie bracket of these vector fields vanishes. This assertion is known to extend to Lipschitz continuous vector fields, up to interpreting the vanishing of…
