We investigate MacNeish's conjecture (known to be false in general) in the setting of what we call "transitive" Mutually Orthogonal Latin Squares (MOLS). When we restrict our attention to "simply transitive" MOLS, we find that the…

Topology change is considered to be a necessary feature of quantum gravity by some authors, and impossible by others. One of the main arguments against it is that spacetimes with changing spatial topology have bad causal properties. Borde…

We complete the theoretical framework required for the construction of a Morse homology theory for certain types of forced mean curvature flows. The main result of this paper describes the asymptotic behaviour of these flows as the forcing…

Let S be an ergodic measure-preserving automorphism on a non-atomic probability space, and let T be the time-one map of a topologically weak mixing suspension flow over an irreducible subshift of finite type under a Holder ceiling function.…

We show that the abelian Liv\v{s}ic theorem recently obtained by A. Gogolev and F. Rodriguez Hertz for null-homologous periodic orbits of homologically full Anosov flows continues to hold when restricted to periodic orbits which are trivial…

We consider an inverse problem for the compressible Euler's equations in polytropic fluid. We show that by taking active measurements near a particle trajectory one can determine the background flow in a set where pressure waves can…

Incompressible flows of an ideal two-dimensional fluid on a closed orientable surface of positive genus are considered. Linear stability of harmonic, i.e. irrotational and incompressible, solutions to the Euler equations is shown using the…

We prove the existence of periodic orbits for steady $C^\omega$ Euler flows on all Riemannian solid tori. By using the correspondence theorem from part I of this series, we reduce the problem to the Weinstein Conjecture for solid tori. We…

Flows on surfaces are one of the most fundamental and classical objects in dynamical systems, and are studied from various areas (e.g. integrable systems, differential equations, fluid mechanics). Though hyperbolic flows and recurrent flows…

In L.W. Flinn's PhD thesis published in 1972, the author conjectured that weakly expansive flows are also expansive flows. In this paper we use the horocycle flow on compact Riemann surfaces of constant negative curvature to show that…

This is a survey article on Morse theory based on lectures to graduate students and advanced undergraduates. After a brief review of standard material, mostly without proofs, the Morse theory of complex Grassmannian manifolds is worked out…

In the present paper, non-singular Morse-Smale flows on closed orientable 3-manifolds under the assumption that among the periodic orbits of the flow there is only one saddle one and it is twisted are considered. An exhaustive description…

In 1966, Arnold [1] showed that the Lagrangian flow of ideal incompressible fluids (described by Euler equations) coincide with the geodesic flow on the manifold of volume preserving diffeomorphisms of the fluid domain. Arnold's proof and…

We construct a topological invariant for a Morse-Smale flow on a 3-manifold and prove that the flows are topologically equivalent iff their invariants are same.

Tutte's famous 5-flow conjecture asserts that every bridgeless graph has a nowhere-zero 5-flow. Seymour proved that every such graph has a nowhere-zero 6-flow. Here we give (two versions of) a new proof of Seymour's Theorem. Both are…

The non-transitivity without extra constraints in the Euler equation in any dimension is almost evident and can be derived, e.g., from Morse theory.

We prove that if a geodesic flow on a closed orientable $C^\infty$ surface is transitive and has positive topological entropy, then it has a unique measure of maximal entropy. This covers all previous results of the literature on the…

A new proof is given of the fact that the particle trajectories of the ideal incompressible fluid are analytic curves, though the solutions of the Euler equations may have a finite regularity. This is a consequence of a general fact that…
