We are motivated by a conjecture of A. and S. Katok to study the smooth cohomologies of a family of Weyl chamber flows. The conjecture is a natural generalization of the Livshitz Theorem to Anosov actions by higher-rank abelian groups; it…
We show that a transitive Anosov flow with orientable stable and unstable foliations that either (i) admits a Birkhoff section whose first return map is a Penner type pseudo-Anosov map, or (ii) is totally periodic admits a genus one…
Let $M_k$ ($k\in \mathbb Z$ and $|k|>4$) be the $3$-manifold obtained by doing $k$ Dehn surgery on the figure-eight knot, and $X_t$ be the canonical Anosov flow on $M_k$ that is constructed by Goodman. The main result of this article is…
If M is a hyperbolic 3-manifold with a quasigeodesic flow then we show that \pi_1(M) acts in a natural way on a closed disc by homeomorphisms. Consequently, such a flow either has a closed orbit or the action on the boundary circle is…
We apply the matching functions technique in the setting of contact Anosov flows which satisfy a bunching assumption. This allows us to generalize the 3-dimensional rigidity result of Feldman-Ornstein~\cite{FO}. Namely, we show that if two…
We prove a structure theorem for pseudo-Anosov flows restricted to Seifert fibered pieces of three manifolds. The piece is called periodic if there is a Seifert fibration so that a regular fiber is freely homotopic, up to powers, to a…
In this paper, we study the ergodicity of a one-parameter diagonalizable subgroup of a connected semisimple real algebraic group $G$ acting on a homogeneous space or, more generally, a homogeneous-like space, equipped with a…
We bring to light a new connection between dynamics and Heegaard Floer homology. On a closed 3-manifold $Y$ we consider a pseudo-Anosov flow $\phi$ with no perfect fits with respect to its singularity locus $L \subset Y$, or perhaps a…
In this paper, we describe a new approach to the problem of classification of transitive Anosov flows on 3-manifolds up to orbital equivalence. More specifically, generalizing the notion of Markov partition, we introduce the notion of…
We study discrete, cocompact, isometric actions of groups on Hadamard spaces, and the induced actions on ideal boundaries. For a class of groups generalizing fundamental groups of three-dimensional graph manifolds, we find a set of…
We explore a geometric perspective on quantum field theory by considering the configuration space, where all field configurations reside. Employing $n$-particle irreducible effective actions constructed via Legendre transforms of the…
We consider a geodesic flow on a compact manifold endowed with a Riemannian (or Finsler, or Lorentz) metric satisfying some generic, explicit conditions. We couple the geodesic flow with a time-dependent potential, driven by an external…
This paper describes an approach for fitting an immersed submanifold of a finite-dimensional Euclidean space to random samples. The reconstruction mapping from the ambient space to the desired submanifold is implemented as a composition of…
This paper provides a canonical compactification of the plane ${\mathbb R}^2$ by adding a circle at infinity associated to a countable family of singular foliations or laminations (under some hypotheses), generalizing an idea by Mather…
We present a new approach to hyperbolic plugs, via a construction of bicontact plugs on 3-manifolds with boundary that are surface bundles over the circle. The boundary components are quasi transverse tori, and we prove a gluing theorem…
We consider Reeb flows on the tight $3$-sphere admitting a pair of closed orbits forming a Hopf link. If the rotation numbers associated to the transverse linearized dynamics at these orbits fail to satisfy a certain resonance condition…
A pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism of a surface is a canonical representative of its mapping class. In this paper, we explain that a transitive pseudo-Anosov flow is similarly a canonical representative of its stable Hamiltonian class. It…
We introduce a generalization of Goodman surgery to the category of projectively Anosov flows. This construction is performed along a knot that is simultaneously Legendrian and transverse for a supporting bi-contact structure. If the flow…
Motivated by results of Thurston, we prove that any autoequivalence of a triangulated category induces a filtration by triangulated subcategories, provided the existence of Bridgeland stability conditions. The filtration is given by the…
We show that some laminar group which has an invariant veering pair of laminations is a hyperbolic 3-orbifold group. On the way, we show that from a veering pair of laminations, one can construct a loom space (in the sense of…
