A pseudo-Anosov flow on a hyperbolic 3-manifold dynamically represents a face F of the Thurston norm ball if the cone on F is dual to the cone spanned by homology classes of closed orbits of the flow. Fried showed that for every fibered…

The classical van der Waals equation, applied to one or two mixing fluids, and the Helmholtz (free) energy function $A$ yield, for fixed temperature $T$, a curve in the plane $\mathbb{R}^2$ (one fluid) or a surface in 3-space $\mathbb{R}^3$…

Let $M$ be a compact manifold equipped with a pair of complementary foliations, say horizontal and vertical. In Catuogno, Silva and Ruffino ($Stoch$. $Dyn$., 2013) it is shown that, up to a stopping time $\tau$, a stochastic flow of local…

Let $\Delta$ be a foliation on a topological manifold $X$, $Y$ be the space of leaves, and $p: X \to Y$ be the natural projection. Endow $Y$ with the factor topology with respect to $p$. Then the group $\mathcal{H}(X, \Delta)$ of foliated…

This paper is the third in a sequence establishing a dictionary between the combinatorics of veering triangulations equipped with appropriate filling slopes, and the dynamics of pseudo-Anosov flows (without perfect fits) on closed…

This is the first article in a series that aims at classifying partial sections of flows, that is a general family of transverse surfaces. In this part, we deal with the dynamical aspect of the question. Given a flow on a compact manifold…

We study the strongly connected components of the flow graph associated to a veering triangulation, and show that the infinitesimal components must be of a certain form, which have to do with subsets of the triangulation which we call…

We show that if $N$, an open connected $n$-manifold with finitely generated fundamental group, is $C^{2}$ foliated by closed planes, then $\pi_{1}(N)$ is a free group. This implies that if $\pi_{1}(N)$ has an Abelian subgroup of rank…

We provide abstract conditions which imply the existence of a robustly invariant neighbourhood of a global section of a fibre bundle flow. We then apply such a result to the bundle flow generated by an Anosov flow when the fibre is the…

Thurston introduced the notion of a universal circle associated to a taut foliation of a $3$-manifold as a way of organizing the ideal circle boundaries of its leaves into a single circle action. Calegari--Dunfield proved that every taut…

In several contexts the defining invariant structures of a hyperbolic dynamical system are smooth only in systems of algebraic origin (smooth rigidity), and we prove new results of this type for a class of flows. For a compact Riemannian…

We consider spaces of plane curves in the setting of algebraic geometry and of singularity theory. On one hand there are the complete linear systems, on the other we consider unfolding spaces of bivariate polynomials of Brieskorn-Pham type.…

We give completely combinatorial proofs of the main results of [3] using polygons. Namely, we prove that the mapping class group of a surface with boundary acts faithfully on a finitely-generated linear category. Along the way we prove some…

In Floer theory one has to deal with two-level manifolds like for instance the space of $W^{2,2}$ loops and the space of $W^{1,2}$ loops. Gradient flow lines in Floer theory are then trajectories in a two-level manifold. Inspired by our…

This paper surveys recent results on classifying partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms. This includes the construction of branching foliations and leaf conjugacies on three-dimensional manifolds with solvable fundamental group.…

Two flows are topologically almost commensurable if, up to removing finitely many periodic orbits and taking finite coverings, they are topologically equivalent. We prove that all suspensions of automorphisms of the 2-dimensional torus and…

We provide obstructions to the existence of conformally Anosov Reeb flows on a 3-manifold that partially generalize similar obstructions to Anosov Reeb flows. In particular, we show $\mathbb{S}^3$ does not admit conformally Anosov Reeb…

We exhibit a pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism of a surface S which acts trivially on the first homology group of S and whose flux is non zero

The geometry of the Heisenberg group acting on the plane arises naturally in geometric topology as a degeneration of the familiar spaces $\mathbb{S}^2,\mathbb{H}^2$ and $\mathbb{E}^2$ via conjugacy limit as defined by Cooper, Danciger, and…

Motivated by the theory of integrable PDEs of hydrodynamic type and by the generalization of Dubrovin's duality in the framework of $F$-manifolds due to Manin [22], we consider a special class of $F$-manifolds, called bi-flat $F$-manifolds.…
