A unit vector field on a Riemannian manifold $M$ is called geodesic if all of its integral curves are geodesics. We show, in the case of $M$ being a flat 3-manifold not equal to $\mathbb{E}^3$, that every such vector field is tangent to a…

We prove that a surface carries a hexagonal 3-web of geodesics if and only if the geodesic flow on the surface admits a cubic first integral and show that the system of partial differential equations, governing metrics on such surfaces, is…

We give a natural definition of geodesics on a Riemannian supermanifold and extend the usual geodesic flow defined on the cotangent bundle of the body of the supermanifold, associated to the induced Riemannian structure on the body, to a…

In the present work we consider the behavior of the geodesic flow on the unit tangent bundle of the 2-torus $T^2$ for an arbitrary Riemannian metric. A natural non-negative quantity which measures the complexity of the geodesic flow is the…

We study the geodesic flow on the global holomorphic sections of the bundle $\pi:{TS}^2\to {S}^2$ induced by the neutral K\"ahler metric on the space of oriented lines of ${\Bbb{R}}^3$, which we identify with ${TS}^2$. This flow is shown to…

We construct explicitly the constants of motion for geodesics in the $5$-dimensional Sasaki-Einstein spaces $Y^{p,q}$. To carry out this task we use the knowledge of the complete set of Killing vectors and Killing-Yano tensors on these…

Let $M$ be a compact $C^{\infty}$ Riemannian manifold. Given $p$ and $q$ in $M$ and $T>0$, define $n_{T}(p,q)$ as the number of geodesic segments joining $p$ and $q$ with length $\leq T$. Ma\~n\'e showed that the exponential growth rate of…

In this paper, we establish a sufficient condition for a geodesic in a Riemannian manifold to be homogeneous, i.e. an orbit of an $1$-parameter isometry group. As an application of this result, we provide a new proof of the fact that every…
