In this paper, we study curve shortening flows on rotational surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$. We assume that the surfaces have negative Gauss curvatures and that some condition related to the Gauss curvature and the curvature of embedded curve…
Continuing the work in \cite{ergodic-infinite}, we show that within each stratum of translation surfaces, there is a residual set of surfaces for which the geodesic flow in almost every direction is ergodic for almost-every periodic group…
Masur's divergence states that the horizontal foliation of translation surfaces is uniquely ergodic if the geodesic flow is recurrent on the moduli space. This established a relationship between geometrical properties of foliations and the…
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 establish an extreme value theorem for the geodesic flow on the hyperbolic surface $\Theta\backslash\mathbb{H}^2$ associated with the theta group $\Theta$. To capture excursions into both cusps of this surface, we introduce a generalized…
A hydrodynamic mechanism of interactions of colloidal particles is considered. The mechanism is based on the assumption of tiny background flows in the experimental cells during measurements by Grier at al. [1-6]. Both trivial (shear flow)…
We extend Teichmueller dynamics to a flow on the total space of a flat bundle of deformation spaces of representations of the fundamental group of a fixed surface S in a Lie group G. The resulting dynamical system is a continuous version of…
Given a closed Riemannian manifold, we prove the C0-general density theorem for continuous geodesic flows. More precisely, that there exists a residual (in the C0-sense) subset of the continuous geodesic flows such that, in that residual…
The equations of motion of a charged ideal fluid, respectively the superconductivity equation (both in a given magnetic field) are showed to be geodesic equations on a general, respectively central extension of the group of volume…
We relate the existence of many infinite geodesics on Alexandrov spaces to a statement about the average growth of volumes of balls. We deduce that the geodesic flow exists and preserves the Liouville measure in several important cases. The…
We formulate a thermodynamical approach to the study of distribution of modular symbols, motivated by the work of Baladi-Vall\'ee. We introduce the modular partitions of continued fractions and observe that the statistics for modular…
In a previous paper, the authors extended Mirzakhani's (almost-everywhere defined) measurable conjugacy between the earthquake and horocycle flows to a measurable bijection. In this one, we analyze the continuity properties of this map and…
We define a parabolic flow of pluriclosed metrics. This flow is of the same family introduced by the authors in \cite{ST}. We study the relationship of the existence of the flow and associated static metrics topological information on the…
This paper is an exposition of the major results of P. Eberlein's paper, "When is a geodesic flow of Anosov type? I," in the special case when the manifold $M$ is a surface. We follow Eberlein's coverage closely, adding details when…
Given a smooth compact surface without focal points and of higher genus, it is shown that its geodesic flow is semi-conjugate to a continuous expansive flow with a local product structure such that the semi-conjugation preserves…
Strong hyperbolicity is a coarse notion of negative curvature, stronger than Gromov hyperbolicity, that includes all CAT(-k) metrics for k positive and allows the use of dynamical techniques available in negative curvature, such as…
It is investigated a possibility of physical interpretation of vector fields (dynamic flows) in Euclidean spaces of higher dimension. There are analyzed the methods of measurements of dynamic flows, the characteristics of dynamic flow and…
Recent experiments performed on a variety of soft glassy materials have demonstrated that any imposed shear flow serves to simultaneously fluidize these systems in all spatial directions [Ovarlez \textit{et al.} (2010)]. When probed with a…
A celebrated result of Ratner from the eighties says that two horocycle flows on hyperbolic surfaces of finite area are either the same up to algebraic change of coordinates, or they have no non-trivial joinings. Recently, Mohammadi and Oh…
In this paper geology and planetology are considered using new conceptual basis of high-speed flow dynamics. Recent photo technics allow to see all details of a flow, 'cause the flow is static during very short time interval. On the other…
