In this paper, we present some generalizations of Lagrange's theorem in the classical theory of continued fractions motivated by the geometric interpretation of the classical theory in terms of closed geodesics on the modular curve. As a…

We present a strategy for a geometric construction of cross sections for the geodesic flow on locally symmetric orbifolds of rank one. We work it out in detail for $\Gamma\backslash H$, where $H$ is the upper half plane and…

In this paper, we provide a model for cross sections to the geodesic and horocycle flows on $\operatorname{SL}(2, \mathbb{R})/G_q$ using an extension of a heuristic of P. Arnoux and A. Nogueira. Our starting point is a continued fraction…

We prove that the geodesic flow on closed surfaces displays a hyperbolic set if the shadowing property holds C2-robustly on the metric. Similar results are obtained when considering even feeble properties like the weak shadowing and the…

We prove that the geodesic flow on a locally CAT(-1) metric space which is compact, or more generally convex cocompact with non-elementary fundamental group, can be coded by a suspension flow over an irreducible shift of finite type with…

We describe how to represent Rosen continued fractions by paths in a class of graphs that arise naturally in hyperbolic geometry. This representation gives insight into Rosen's original work about words in Hecke groups, and it also helps us…

Periodic geodesics on the modular surface correspond to periodic orbits of the geodesic flow in its unit tangent bundle $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{Z})\backslash\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{R})$. The complement of any finite number of orbits is a…

Consider briefly the equations of fluid dynamics-they describe the enormous wealth of detail in all the interacting physical elements of a fluid flow-whereas in applications we want to deal with a description of just that which is…

Physicists face major challenges in modelling multi-scale phenomena that are observed in geophysical flows (e.g. in the Earth's oceans and atmosphere, or liquid planetary cores). In particular, complexities arise because geophysical fluids…

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…
