Let $M$ be a closed K-contact $(2n+1)$-manifold equipped with a quasi-regular K-contact structure. Rukimbira proved that the Reeb vector field $\xi$ of this structure has at least $n+1$ closed characteristics. We note that $\xi$ has at…

We show that the affine closure of T^*(SL_n/U) has symplectic singularities, in the sense of Beauville. In the special case n=3, we show that the affine closure of T^*(SL_3/U) is isomorphic to the closure of the minimal nilpotent adjoint…

We derive a closed-form expression for the projection onto a capped rotated second-order cone -- a convex set that arises in perspective relaxations of nonlinear programs with binary indicator variables. The closed-form solution involves…

We introduce a notion of positive pair of contact structures on a 3-manifold which generalizes a previous definition of Eliashberg-Thurston and Mitsumatsu. Such a pair gives rise to a locally integrable plane field $\lambda$. We prove that…

Let M be a closed manifold whose based loop space is ``complicated''. Examples are rationally hyperbolic manifolds and manifolds whose fundamental group has exponential growth. We prove that the topological entropy of any Reeb flow on the…

We prove that the Koebe circle domain conjecture is equivalent to the Weyl type problem that every complete hyperbolic surface of genus zero is isometric to the boundary of the hyperbolic convex hull of the complement of a circle domain. It…

We prove that on closed Riemannian manifolds with infinite abelian, but not cyclic, fundamental group, any isometry that is homotopic to the identity possesses infinitely many invariant geodesics. We conjecture that the result remains true…

We prove equality of the vector field (iterated commutator) type and the regular contact type, which together with the Bloom theorem on equality of the Levi-form type and the regular contact type provides a complete solution of a long…

We study invariant contact p-spheres on principal circle-bundles and solve the corresponding existence problem in dimension 3. Moreover, we show that contact p-spheres can only exist on (4n-1)-dimensional manifolds and we construct examples…

Through the use of sub-Riemannian metrics we provide quantitative estimates for the maximal tight neighbourhood of a Reeb orbit on a three-dimensional contact manifold. Under appropriate geometric conditions we show how to construct closed…

By introducing a dynamical version of the second fundamental form, we generalize a recent result of Filip-Fisher-Lowe to the setting of magnetic systems. Namely, we show that a real-analytic negatively $s$-curved magnetic system on a closed…

This paper deals with multiplicity of rotation type solutions for Hamiltonian systems on $T^\ell\times \mathbb{R}^{2n-\ell}$. It is proved that, for every spatially periodic Hamiltonian system, i.e., the case $\ell=n$, there exist at least…

The existence of hyperbolic orbits is proved for a class of singular Hamiltonian systems $\ddot{u}(t)+\nabla V(u(t))=0$ by taking limit for a sequence of periodic solutions which are the variational minimizers of Lagrangian actions.

In this paper we deal with the existence of periodic orbits of geodesible vector fields on closed 3-manifolds. A vector field is geodesible if there exists a Riemannian metric on the ambient manifold making its orbits geodesics. In…

The closedness of orbits of central forces is addressed in a three dimensional space in which the Poisson bracket among the coordinates is that of the SU(2) Lie algebra. In particular it is shown that among problems with spherically…

Let A be a finitely generated associative algebra over an algebraically closed field. We characterize the finite dimensional modules over A whose orbit closures are regular varieties.

The aim of the present paper is the study of some classes of real hypersurfaces equipped with the condition \phi l = l \phi, (l = R(., \xi, \xi))

Liebmann's Theorem asserts that a compact, connected, convex surface with constant mean curvature (CMC) in the Euclidean space must be a totally umbilical sphere. In this article we extend Liebmann's result to hypersurfaces with boundary.…

In the spirit of Sullivan's paper "Cycles for the Dynamical Study of Foliated Manifolds and Complex Manifolds", existence of a contact structure on a closed manifold $M$ is shown to be equivalent to existence of an ample $S^1$-invariant…

This paper is the sequel to the previous paper [Ne15], which showed that sufficient regularity exists to define cylindrical contact homology in dimension three for nondegenerate dynamically separated contact forms, a subclass of dynamically…
