We consider stochastic perturbations of geodesic flow for left-invariant metrics on finite-dimensional Lie groups and study the H\"ormander condition and some properties of the solutions of the corresponding Fokker-Planck equations.
We rigorously verify that in the spatially homogeneous spacetimes (Bianchi VIII and IX), the presence of matter does not affect the oscillatory behavior of the solutions to the Einstein field equations as first conjectured by Belinski,…
We consider vacuum anisotropic spatially homogeneous models in certain modified gravity theories (such as Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz, $\lambda$-$R$ or $f(R)$ gravity), which are expected to describe generic spacelike singularities for these…

Let $(M, g)$ be a Riemannian manifold with boundary, where $g$ is a non-trapping metric. Let $SM$ be the space of the spherical tangent to $M$ bundle, and $v^g$ the geodesic vector field on $SM$. We study the scattering maps $C_{v^g}:…
We investigate the detailed dynamics of multidimensional Hamiltonian systems by studying the evolution of volume elements formed by unit deviation vectors about their orbits. The behavior of these volumes is strongly influenced by the…

Usual approaches to quantisation of a 3-Toda lead to numerical calculations requiring many steps that can be time consuming to insure their reliability. In order to reduce as much as possible the numerical part of the EKB quantisation…
As is widely recognized in Lyapunov analysis, linearized Hamilton's equations of motion have two marginal directions for which the Lyapunov exponents vanish. Those directions are the tangent one to a Hamiltonian flow and the gradient one of…
