We construct a complete invariant for non-wandering surface flows with finitely many singular points but without locally dense orbits. Precisely, we show that a flow $v$ with finitely many singular points on a compact connected surface $S$…

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…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of dynamical coherence for a partially hyperbolic flow $(\varphi^t)$ on a smooth compact manifold $M$, and prove it under the assumption that there exists a compact foliation with trivial holonomy…

We propose a general framework for studying pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms on translation surfaces. This new approach, among other consequences, allows us to compute the systole of the Teichmueller geodesic flow restricted to the…

Froyshov invariants are numerical invariants of rational homology three-spheres derived from gradings in monopole Floer homology. In the past few years, they have been employed to solve a wide range of problems in three and four-dimensional…

The aim of this (mostly expository) article is twofold. We first explore a variety of length functions on the space of currents, and we survey recent work regarding applications of length functions to counting problems. Secondly, we use…

We introduce a geometric evolution equation of hyperbolic type, which governs the evolution of a hypersurface moving in the direction of its mean curvature vector. The flow stems from a geometrically natural action containing kinetic and…

We consider the damped hyperbolic motion of polygons by a linear semi-discrete analogue of polyharmonic curve diffusion. We show that such flows may transition any polygon to any other polygon, reminiscent of the Yau problem of evolving one…

Let M be a compact hyperbolic manifold with totally geodesic boundary. If the injectivity radius of the boundary is larger than an explicit function of the normal injectivity radius of the boundary, we show that there is a negatively curved…

In a previous paper with C. Bonatti ([5]), we have defined a general procedure to build new examples of Anosov flows in dimension 3. The procedure consists in gluing together some building blocks, called hyperbolic plugs, along their…

We show exactly which Seifert manifolds support partially hyperbolic dynamical systems. In particular, a circle bundle over a higher-genus surface supports a partially hyperbolic system if and only if it supports an Anosov flow. We also…

Let $M$ be a hyperbolic fibered 3-manifold with $b_1(M) \geq 2$ and let $S$ be a fiber with pseudo-Anosov monodromy $\psi$. We show that there exists a sequence $(R_n, \psi_n)$ of fibers and monodromies contained in the fibered cone of…

A multiarc and curve graph is a simplicial graph whose vertices are arc and curve systems on a compact, connected, orientable surface S. We show that all connected, non-trivial multiarc and curve graphs preserved by the natural action of…

We show that a pseudo-Anosov map on a boundary component of an irreducible 3-manifold has a power that partially extends to the interior if and only if its (un)stable lamination is a projective limit of meridians. The proof is through…

Given an Anosov flow on a closed 3-manifold, we are interested in the problem of whether or not making non-trivial Fried surgeries along a finite set of periodic orbits can produce a flow equivalent to itself. We show that for some…

We construct non-algebraic Anosov flows in dimension $3+2n$, $n\geq 2$, by suspending the action of the fundamental group of a finite cover of the Bonatti-Langevin flow.

The spectral geometry of negatively curved manifolds has received more attention than its positive curvature counterpart. In this paper we will survey a variety of spectral geometry results that are known to hold in the context of…

It is well-known that hyperbolic flows admit Markov partitions of arbitrarily small size. However, the constructions of Markov partitions for general hyperbolic flows are very abstract and not easy to understand. To establish a more…

We prove uniform north-south dynamics type results for the action of $\varphi\in Out(F_{N})$ on the space of projectivized geodesic currents $\mathbb{P}Curr(S)=\mathbb{P}Curr(F_{N})$, where $\varphi$ is induced by a pseudo-Anosov…

We investigate the geometry of $\pi_1$-injective surfaces in closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds. First we prove that for any $e>0$, if the manifold $M$ has sufficiently large systole $\sys_1(M)$, the genus of any such surface in $M$ is bounded…
