In a recent paper [T. Shang et al., Phys. Rev. B 107, 224504 (2023)], the authors study the physical properties of TaReSi compounds having Ima2 structure. This noncentrosymmetric structure is proposed to be the source of topological…
We consider simply connected Riemannian manifolds without conjugate points for which the horospherical mean curvature function is continuous, reversible and invariant under the geodesic flow. We show under mild additional curvature tensor…
We construct an example of planar Anosov diffeomorphisms without fixed points which is not topologically conjugate to a translation.
Let $X_1^t$ and $X_2^t$ be volume preserving Anosov flows on a 3-dimensional manifold $M$. We prove that if $X_1^t$ and $X_2^t$ are $C^0$ conjugate then the conjugacy is, in fact, smooth, unless $M$ is a mapping torus of an Anosov…
We study curvature functionals for immersed 2-spheres in non-compact, three-dimensional Riemannian manifold $(M,h)$ without boundary. First, under the assumption that $(M,h)$ is the euclidean 3-space endowed with a semi-perturbed metric…
We prove that all the Tonelli Hamiltonians defined on the cotangent bundle $T^*\T^n$ of the $n$-dimensional torus that have no conjugate points are $C^0$ integrable, i.e. $T^*\T^n$ is $C^0$ foliated by a family $\Fc$ of invariant $C^0$…
Let $M$ be a smooth compact surface of nonpositive curvature, with genus $\geq 2$. We prove the ergodicity of the geodesic flow on the unit tangent bundle of $M$ with respect to the Liouville measure under the condition that the set of…
Let $h$ be a without fixed point lift to the plane of a homeomorphism of the open annulus isotopic to the identity and without wandering point. We show that $h$ admits a $h$-invariant dense open set $O$ on which it is conjugate to a…
In this paper we prove that for all $n=4k-2$, $k\ge2$ there exists closed $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds $M$ with negative sectional curvature that do not have the homotopy type of a locally symmetric space, such that…
We establish a global rigidity theorem for Riemannian metrics without conjugate points on three-manifolds of the form $M = \Sigma \times S^1$, where $\Sigma$ is a compact orientable surface of genus at least 2. The main result states that…
We prove an inverse function theorem of Nash-Moser type for maps between Fr\'echet spaces satisfying tame estimates. In contrast to earlier proofs, we do not use the Newton method, that is, we do not use quadratic convergence to overcome…
We use angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to study non-trivial surface state in psuedobinary Bi2Se0.6Te2.3 topological insulator. We show that unlike previously studied binaries, this is an intrinsic topological insulator with…
Let $\gamma$ be a pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism and $X$ an element of the Teichmuller space of a genus $g$ surface. In this paper, we find asymptotics for the number of pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms that are conjugate to $\gamma$ and the axis…
Deterministic thermostats are frequently employed in non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations in order to remove the heat produced irreversibly over the course of such simulations. The simplest thermostat is the Gaussian thermostat,…
We prove that, for closed exact embedded Lagrangian submanifolds of cotangent bundles, the homomorphism of homotopy groups induced by the stable Lagrangian Gauss map vanishes. In particular, we prove that this map is null-homotopic for all…
We show, using standard results in length spectrum rigidity and symplectic homology, that if the unit tangent bundles of two compact surfaces of negative curvature are exact symplectomorphic, then the underlying surfaces are isometric, and…
We construct a class of Riemannian metrics in closed surfaces of genus greater than one, having Anosov geodesic flows, and some regions of positive curvature, such that for each such surface, there exists a smooth curve of conformal…
The main result of this paper is the following: any `weighted' Riemannian manifold $(M,g,\mu)$ - i.e. endowed with a generic non-negative Radon measure $\mu$ - is `infinitesimally Hilbertian', which means that its associated Sobolev space…
We prove that for any orientable connected surface of finite type which is not a a sphere with at most four punctures or a torus with at most two punctures, any homeomorphism of the space of geodesic laminations of this surface, equipped…
We show that there are no nontrivial surjective uniformly asymptotically regular mappings acting on a metric space and derive some consequences of this fact. In particular, we prove that a jointly continuous left amenable or left reversible…
