We show that every pseudo-Anosov flow on a graph manifold is almost equivalent, i.e. orbit equivalent in the complement of a finite collection of closed orbits, to a totally periodic pseudo-Anosov flow or a suspension Anosov flow. The proof…

This is an exposition of the Donaldson geometric flow on the space of symplectic forms on a closed smooth four-manifold, representing a fixed cohomology class. The original work appeared in [1].

Steady fluid flows have very special topology. In this paper we describe necessary and sufficient conditions on the vorticity function of a 2D ideal flow on a surface with or without boundary, for which there exists a steady flow among…

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…

This paper explains an application of Gromov's h-principle to prove the existence, on any orientable 4-manifold, of a folded symplectic form. That is a closed 2-form which is symplectic except on a separating hypersurface where the form…

We provide sufficient conditions on a positive function so that its associated special flow over any irrational rotation is either weak mixing or $L^2$-conjugate to a suspension flow.

We classify static manifolds which admit more than one static decomposition whenever a condition on the curvature is fullfilled. For this, we take a standard static vector field and analyze its associated one parameter family of projections…

We consider the problem of determining the class of continuous-time dynamical systems that can be globally linearized in the sense of admitting an embedding into a linear system on a higher-dimensional Euclidean space. We solve this problem…

We prove that the de Rham $L^\phi$-cohomology of a Riemannian manifold $M$ admiting a convenient triangulation $X$ is isomorphic to the simplicial $\ell^\phi$-cohomology of $X$ for any Young function $\phi$. This result implies the…

We investigate the spectrum of Lyapunov exponents for the geodesic flow of a compact rank 1 surface.

Consider on a manifold the solution $X$ of a stochastic differential equation driven by a L\'evy process without Brownian part. Sufficient conditions for the smoothness of the law of $X_t$ are given, with particular emphasis on noncompact…

Let $M$ be a $G$-manifold and $\om$ a $G$-invariant exact $m$-form on $M$. We indicate when these data allow us to constract a cocycle on a group $G$ with values in the trivial $G$-module $\mathbb R$ and when this cocycle is nontrivial.

A pseudo-Anosov flow is said to have perfect fits if there are stable and unstable leaves that are asymptotic in the universal cover. We give an algorithm to decide, given a box decomposition of a pseudo-Anosov flow, if the flow has perfect…

We prove that oriented and standard shadowing properties are equivalent for topological flows with finite singularites that are Lyapunov stable or Lyapunov unstable. Moreover, we prove that the direct product $\phi_1 \times \phi_2$ of two…

We describe transversely oriented foliations of codimension one on closed manifolds that admit simple foliated flows.

In this expository note, recent results of Kishimoto and Matsushita on triangulated manifolds are linked to the classical criterion on the normal Stiefel-Whitney classes for existence of an embedding of a smooth closed manifold into…

We show that whenever a closed symplectic manifold admits a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism with finitely many simple periodic orbits, the manifold has a spherical homology class of degree two with positive symplectic area and positive integral…

In topological dynamics, one considers a topological space $X$ and a self-map $f: X \to X$ of $X$ and studies the self-map's properties. In global analysis, one considers a smooth manifold $M^n$ and a differential equation $\xi: M \to TM$…

We describe, in the general setting of closed cone fields, the set of causal functions which can be approximated by smooth Lyapunov. We derive several consequences on causality theory. Dans le contexte g\'en\'eral des champs de cones…

For an underactuated (simple) Hamiltonian system with two degrees of freedom and one degree of underactuation, a rather general condition that ensures its stabilizability, by means of the existence of a (simple) Lyapunov function, was found…
