For each surface $S$ of genus $g>2$ we construct pairs of conjugate pseudo-Anosov maps, $\varphi_1$ and $\varphi_2$, and two non-equivalent covers $p_i: \tilde S \longrightarrow S$, $i=1,2$, so that the lift of $\varphi_1$ to $\tilde S$…
About a decade ago Thurston proved that a vast collection of 3-manifolds carry metrics of constant negative curvature. These manifolds are thus elements of {\em hyperbolic geometry}, as natural as Euclid's regular polyhedra. For a closed…
We provide an exposition of a `horizontal' generalization of Goodman's surgery operation on (pseudo-)Anosov flows. This operation is performed by cutting along a specific kind of annulus that is transverse to the flow and regluing with a…
We prove a classification theorem for transitive Anosov and pseudo-Anosov flows on closed 3-manifolds, up to orbit equivalence. In many cases, flows on a 3-manifold $M$ are completely determined by the set of free homotopy classes of their…
We prove that for the frame flow on a negatively curved, closed manifold of odd dimension other than 7, and a Holder continuous potential that is constant on fibers, there is a unique equilibrium measure. We prove a similar result for…
We study (topological) pseudo-Anosov flows from the perspective of the associated group actions on their orbit spaces and boundary at infinity. We extend the definition of Anosov-like action from [BFM22] from the transitive to the general…
This paper considers "geometric" ideal triangulations of cusped hyperbolic 3-manifolds, i.e. decompositions into positive volume ideal hyperbolic tetrahedra. We exhibit infinitely many geometric ideal triangulations of the figure eight knot…
We give a topological stability result for the action of the fundamental group of a compact manifold of negative curvature on its boundary at infinity: any nearby action of this group by homeomorphisms of the sphere is semi-conjugate to the…
We prove that the knots and links that admit a 3-highly twisted irreducible diagram with more than two twist regions are hyperbolic. This should be compared with a result of Futer-Purcell for 6-highly twisted diagrams. While their proof…
We consider parabolic flows on 3-dimensional manifolds which are renormalized by circle extensions of Anosov diffeormorphisms. This class of flows includes nilflows on the Heisenberg nilmanifold which are renormalized by partially…
We introduce a hyperbolic reflection group trick which builds closed aspherical manifolds out of compact ones and preserves hyperbolicity, residual finiteness, and -- for almost all primes $p$ -- $\mathbb{F}_p$-homology growth above the…
We give a complete topological classification of transitive partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms in 3-manifolds in terms of Anosov flows, completing a program proposed by Pujals. In particular, this also allows to give a full answer to the…
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…
It is known that any tame hyperbolic 3-manifold with infinite volume and a single end is the geometric limit of a sequence of finite volume hyperbolic knot complements. Purcell and Souto showed that if the original manifold embeds in the…
Given a taut depth-one foliation $\mathcal{F}$ in a closed atoroidal 3-manifold $M$ transverse to a pseudo-Anosov flow $\phi$ without perfect fits, we show that the universal circle coming from leftmost sections $\mathfrak{S}_\mathrm{left}$…
In a neighborhood of a hyperbolic periodic orbit of a volume-preserving flow on a manifold of dimension 3, we define and show the existence of a normal form for the generator of the flow that encodes the dynamics. If the flow is a contact…
Cannon, Swenson, and others have proved numerous theorems about subdivision rules associated to hyperbolic groups with a 2-sphere at infinity. However, few explicit examples are known. We construct an explicit subdivision rule for many…
We prove that every transitive topologically Anosov flow on a closed 3-manifold is orbitally equivalent to a smooth Anosov flow, preserving an ergodic smooth volume form.
We take a first step towards understanding the relationship between foliations and universally tight contact structures on hyperbolic 3-manifolds. If a surface bundle over a circle has pseudo-Anosov holonomy, we obtain a classification of…
We construct infinitely many examples of pairs of isospectral but non-isometric $1$-cusped hyperbolic $3$-manifolds. These examples have infinite discrete spectrum and the same Eisenstein series. Our constructions are based on an…
