We study the geodesic flow of geometrically finite quotients $\Omega/{\Gamma}$ of Hilbert geometries, in particular its recurrence properties. We prove that, under a geometrical assumption on the cusps, the geodesic flow is uniformly…

We give a short proof of the unique ergodicity of the strong stable foliation of the geodesic flow on the frame bundle of a hyperbolic manifold admitting a finite measure of maximal entropy. Equivalently, let G = S0o(n, 1), $\Gamma$…

We describe a class of completely integrable $G$-invariant magnetic geodesic flows on (co)adjoint orbits of a compact connected Lie group $G$ with magnetic field given by the Kirillov-Konstant 2-form.

We study the topological entropy of the magnetic flow on a closed riemannian surface. We prove that if the magnetic flow has a non-hyperbolic closed orbit in some energy set T^cM= E^{-1}(c), then there exists an exact $…

Let $M$ be a smooth compact surface of nonpositive curvature, with genus $\geq 2$. We prove the ergodicity of the geodesic flow on the unit tangent bundle of $M$ with respect to the Liouville measure under the condition that the set of…

We prove that the geodesic flow on a locally CAT(-1) metric space which is compact, or more generally convex cocompact with non-elementary fundamental group, can be coded by a suspension flow over an irreducible shift of finite type with…

The main results of this paper are limit theorems for horocycle flows on compact surfaces of constant negative curvature. One of the main objects of the paper is a special family of horocycle-invariant finitely-additive Hoelder measures on…

A flow of electrically conducting fluid in the presence of a steady magnetic field has a tendency to become quasi two-dimensional, i.e. uniform in the direction of the magnetic field, except in thin so-called Hartmann boundary layers. The…

On the unit tangent bundle of a nonflat compact nonpositively curved surface, we prove that there is a unique probability Borel measure invariant by a horocyclic flow which gives full measure to the set of rank $1$ vectors recurrent by the…

We prove a recent conjecture of Dragovic et al arXiv2504.20515 stating that the magnetic geodesic flow on the standard sphere $S^n\subset \mathbb R^{n+1}$ whose magnetic 2-form is the restriction of a constant 2-form from $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$…

Let $(M,g)$ be a closed Riemannian manifold and $\sigma$ be a closed 2-form on $M$ representing an integer cohomology class. In this paper, using symplectic reduction, we show how the problem of existence of closed magnetic geodesics for…

A classic result due to Furstenberg is the strict ergodicity of the horocycle flow for a compact hyperbolic surface. Strict ergodicity is unique ergodicity with respect to a measure of full support, and therefore implies minimality. The…

In this paper we show that the geodesic flow of a Finsler metric is Anosov if and only if there exists a $C^2$ open neighborhood of Finsler metrics all of whose closed geodesics are hyperbolic. For surfaces this result holds also for…

We study the ergodic properties of horospheres on rank 1 manifolds with non-positive curvature. We prove that the horospheres are equidistributed under the action of the geodesic flow towards the Bowen-Margulis measure, on a large class of…

Structurally stable (rough) flows on surfaces have only finitely many singularities and finitely many closed orbits, all of which are hyperbolic, and they have no trajectories joining saddle points. The violation of the last property leads…

We prove a normal form for strong magnetic fields on a closed, oriented surface and use it to derive two dynamical results for the associated flow. First, we show the existence of KAM tori and trapping regions provided a natural…

We endow the space of projective filling geodesic currents on a closed hyperbolic surface with a natural asymmetric metric extending Thurston's asymmetric metric on Teichm\"uller space, as well as analogous metrics arising from Hitchin…

Given a $7$-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold $\left( M,g\right) $ that admits $G_{2}$-structure, all the $G_{2}$-structures that are compatible with the metric $g$ are parametrized by unit sections of an octonion bundle over $M$. We…

We completely integrate the magnetic geodesic flow on a flat two-torus with the magnetic field $F = \cos (x) dx \wedge dy$ and describe all contractible periodic magnetic geodesics. It is shown that there are no such geodesics for energy $E…
