We construct cross sections for the geodesic flow on the orbifolds $\Gamma\backslash H$ which are tailor-made for the requirements of transfer operator approaches to Maass cusp forms and Selberg zeta functions. Here, $H$ denotes the…
We establish that, for every hyperbolic orbifold of type (2, q, $\infty$) and for every orbifold of type (2, 3, 4g+2), the geodesic flow on the unit tangent bundle is left-handed. This implies that the link formed by every collection of…
A notion of equivariant spectral flows for families of self-dual elliptic operators on Riemannian manifolds is purposed. As a consequence, a local version of a Lefschetz fix point theorem is proved for Toeplitz operators on odd-dimensional…
The connection between Lefschetz formulae and zeta function is explained. As a particular example the theory of the generalized Selberg zeta function is presented. Applications are given to the theory of Anosov flows and prime geodesic…
We construct a template with two ribbons that describes the topology of all periodic orbits of the geodesic flow on the unit tangent bundle to any sphere with three cone points with hyperbolic metric. The construction relies on the…
Let $F$ be a transversely oriented foliation of codimension 1 on a closed manifold $M$, and let $\phi=\{\phi^t\}$ be a foliated flow on $(M,F)$. Assume the closed orbits of $\phi$ are simple and its preserved leaves are transversely simple.…
The fact that the modular template coincides with the Lorenz template, discovered by Ghys, implies modular knots have very peculiar properties. We obtain a generalization of these results to other Hecke triangle groups. In this context, the…
A general Lefschetz formula for the geodesic action on locally symmetric spaces is proven.
We prove that the geodesic flow of a Kupka-Smale riemannian metric on a closed surface has homoclinic orbits for all of its hyperbolic closed geodesics.
We study pseudodifferential operators on a hyperbolic surface using `Zelditch quantization'. We motivate and study the trace of $A_2^* A_1(t)$, where $A_2$ is a fixed operator and the Zelditch symbol of $A_1(t)$ evolves by geodesic flow. We…
The geodesic structure is very closely related to the trace of the Laplace operator, involved in the calculation of the expectation value of the energy momentum tensor in Universes with non trivial topology. The purpose of this work is to…
In this article, we combine V. Arnold's celebrated approach via the Euler-Arnold equation -- describing the geodesic flow on a Lie group equipped with a right-invariant metric \cite{Arnold66} -- with his formulation of the motion of a…
Liv\v{s}ic theorem for flows asserts that a Lipschitz observable that has zero mean average along every periodic orbit is necessarily a coboundary, that is the Lie derivative of a Lipschitz function smooth along the flow direction. The…
In this paper we describe the topological behavior of the geodesic flow for a class of closed 3-manifolds realized as quotients of nonstrictly convex Hilbert geometries, constructed and described explicitly by Benoist. These manifolds are…
Consider the geodesic flow on a real-analytic closed hypersurface $M$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$, equipped with the standard Euclidean metric. The flow is entirely determined by the manifold and the Riemannian metric. Typically, geodesic flows are…
Ten years ago A. Zorich discovered, by computer experiments on interval exchange transformations, some striking new power laws for the ergodic integrals of generic non-exact Hamiltonian flows on higher genus surfaces. In Zorich's later work…
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 establish a precise asymptotic formula for the number of homotopy classes of periodic orbits for the geodesic flow on rank one manifolds of nonpositive curvature. This extends a celebrated result of G. A. Margulis to the nonuniformly…
The Lefschetz formula for the action of a Hecke correspondence on the weighted cohomology of a locally symmetric space is derived. It is also proven that each Hecke correspondence on the reductive Borel-Serre compactification of the locally…
