We show that for every non-elementary hyperbolic group, an associated topological flow space admits a coding based on a transitive subshift of finite type. Applications include regularity results for Manhattan curves, the uniqueness of…
We explore some properties of flows with strongly adapted 1-forms, originally discovered in (Tao 2017), which can be used to embed Turing machines into dynamical systems. In particular, we discuss some relations to geodesible flows, and…
We prove that every $C^1$ generic three-dimensional flow has either infinitely many sinks, or, infinitely many hyperbolic or singular-hyperbolic attractors whose basins form a full Lebesgue measure set. We also prove in the orientable case…
We prove that C^1-robustly transitive diffeomorphisms on surfaces with boundary do not exist, and we exhibit a class of diffeomorphisms of surfaces with boundary which are C^k-robustly transitive, with k greater or equal than 2. This class…
Topological chaos relies on the periodic motion of obstacles in a two-dimensional flow in order to form nontrivial braids. This motion generates exponential stretching of material lines, and hence efficient mixing. Boyland et al. [P. L.…
We consider two transitive $3$-dimensional Anosov flows which do not preserve volume and which are continuously conjugate to each other. Then, disregarding certain exceptional cases, such as flows with $C^1$ regular stable or unstable…
We show generic $C^\infty$ hyperbolic flows (Axiom A and no cycles, but not transitive Anosov) commute with no $C^\infty$-diffeomorphism other than a time-t map of the flow itself. Kinematic expansivity, a substantial weakening of…
This is a set of four lectures devoted to simple ideas about turbulent transport, a ubiquitous non-equilibrium phenomenon. In the course similar to that given by the author in 2006 in Warwick [45], we discuss lessons which have been learned…
If X is a proper CAT(-1)-space and $\Gamma$ a non-elementary discrete group of isometries acting properly discontinuously on X, it is shown that the geodesic flow on the quotient space Y=X/$\Gamma$ is topologically mixing, provided that the…
We analyse the intersection of positively and negatively sectional-hyperbolic sets for flows on compact manifolds. First we prove that such an intersection is hyperbolic if the intersecting sets are both transitive (this is false without…
Consider the set $\chi^0_{\mathrm{nw}}$ of non-wandering continuous flows on a closed surface. Then such a flow can be approximated by regular non-wandering flows without heteroclinic connections nor locally dense orbits in…
A group action is said to be highly-transitive if it is $k$-transitive for every $k \ge 1$. The main result of this thesis is the following: Main Theorem: The fundamental group of a closed, orientable surface of genus > 1 admits a…
Let $T=(T_t^f)_{t\in \mathbb{R}}$ be a special flow built over an IET $T : T \to T$ of bounded type, under a roof function f with symmetric logarithmic singularities at a subset of discontinuities of T. We show that $T$ satisfies so-called…
We study various types of shadowing properties and their implication for C1 generic vector fields. We show that, generically, any of the following three hypotheses implies that an isolated set is topologically transitive and hyperbolic: (i)…
We improve previous results by exhibiting a construction that contains all known examples. A suficient condition for the existence of robustly transitive maps displaying singularities on a certain large class of compact manifolds is given.
In this article we study topological transitivity of Anosov flows on non-compact 3-manifolds. We provide homological conditions under which the lifts of a transitive Anosov flow to certain infinite covers of the manifold remain transitive.…
We study the topological dynamics by iterations of a piecewise continuous, non linear and locally contractive map in a real finite dimensional compact ball. We consider those maps satisfying the "separation property": different continuity…
General hierarchical lattices of coupled maps are considered as dynamical systems. These models may describe many processes occurring in heterogeneous media with tree-like structures. The transition to turbulence via spatiotemporal…
We prove that minimal area-preserving flows locally given by a smooth Hamiltonian on a closed surface of any genus are typically (in the measure-theoretical sense) not mixing. The result is obtained by considering special flows over…
We prove that for any $C^1$-stably weakly shadowing transitive set $\Lambda$, either $\Lambda$ is a sink or a source, or $\Lambda$ admits a dominated splitting.
