The aim of this paper is to study dynamical and topological properties of a flow in the region of influence of an isolated non-saddle set or a $W$-set in a manifold. These are certain classes of compact invariant sets in whose vicinity the…
This paper surveys results found by the authors in the previous papers (see for example, A. Duyunova, V. Lychagin, S. Tychkov, Differential invariants for spherical layer flows of a viscid fluid, Journal of Geometry and Physics, 130,…
A vector calculus approach for the determination of advected invariants is presented for inviscid fluid flow. This approach describes invariants by means of Lie dragging of scalars, vectors, and skew-tensors with respect to the fluid…
Rotation vectors, as defined for homeomorphisms of the torus that are isotopic to the identity, are generalized to such homeomorphisms of any complete Riemannian manifold with non-positive sectional curvature. These generalized rotation…
Previously the second author has constructed by cobordism methods, an invariant associated to a finite group $G$. This invariant approximates the number of subgroups of a group, giving in some cases the number of abelian and cyclic…
Based on the notion of a $\Delta$-group(oid), ring-valued invariants of pairs of topological spaces can be defined in intrinsic topological terms.
The article surveys inverse problems related to the twisted geodesic flows on Riemannian manifolds with boundary, focusing on the generalized ray transforms, tensor tomography, and rigidity problems. The twisted geodesic flow generalizes…
The methods of singular and de Rham homology and cohomology are reviewed to the extent that they are applicable to the structure and motion of vortices. In particular, they are first applied to the concept of integral invariants. After a…
The notion of the flow introduced by Kitaev is a manifestly topological formulation of the winding number on a real lattice. First, we show in this paper that the flow is quite useful for practical numerical computations for systems without…
We explore the harmonic-Ricci flow---that is, Ricci flow coupled with harmonic map flow---both as it arises naturally in certain principal bundle constructions related to Ricci flow and as a geometric flow in its own right. We demonstrate…
Visualization of turbulent flows is a powerful tool to help understand the turbulence dynamics and induced transport. However, it does not provide a quantitative description of the observed structures. In this paper, an approach to…
We construct the infinite sequence of invariants for curves in surfaces by using word theory that V. Turaev introduced. For plane closed curves, we add some extra terms, e.g. the rotation number. From these modified invariants, we get the…
Issues relevant to the flow chirality and structure are focused, while the new theoretical results, including even a distinctive theory, are introduced. However, it is hope that the presentation, with a low starting point but a steep rise,…
In this paper, the steady creeping flow equations of a second grade fluid in cartesian coordinates are considered; the equations involve a small parameter related to the dimensionless non--Newtonian coefficient. According to a recently…
We construct algorithms and topological invariants that allow us to distinguish the topological type of a surface, as well as functions and vector fields for their topological equivalence. In the first part (arXiv:2501.15657), we discused…
We give a survey on eta invariants including methods of computation and applications in differential topology.
This paper focuses on flow-adapted point-shifts of point processes on topological groups, which map points of a point process to other points of the point process in a translation invariant way. Foliations and connected components generated…
We discuss some aspects of topological invariants that classify topological states of matter with emphasis on topological insulators. The main aspect addressed is if there are only two topological phases to Bloch Hamiltonian that are time…
Here we shall consider the topology and dynamics associated to a wide class of matchbox manifolds, including a large selection of tiling spaces and all minimal matchbox manifolds of dimension one. For such spaces we introduce topological…
We study the topological structure and the topological dynamics of groups of homeomorphisms of scattered spaces. For a large class of them (including the homeomorphism group of any ordinal space or of any locally compact scattered space),…
