A riemannian manifold is secure if the geodesics between any pair of points in the manifold can be blocked by a finite number of point obstacles. Compact, flat manifolds are secure. A standing conjecture says that these are the only secure,…

Thurston's triangulation conjecture asserts that every hyperbolic 3-manifold admits a geometric decomposition into ideal hyperbolic tetrahedra, a result proven only for certain special 3-manifolds. This paper presents combinatorial Ricci…

We prove the existence of a discrete correlation spectrum for Morse-Smale flows acting on smooth forms on a compact manifold. This is done by constructing spaces of currents with anisotropic Sobolev regularity on which the Lie derivative…

For a compact three-dimensional smooth Riemannian manifold of strictly 1/4-pinched negative sectional curvature, we establish exponential mixing of the frame flow with respect to the normalized volume. More generally this result extends to…

We investigate the formation of singularities for surfaces evolving by volume preserving mean curvature flow. For axially symmetric flows - surfaces of revolution - in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with Neumann boundary conditions, we prove that the first…

The purpose of this paper is to introduce a version of singular homology based on smooth mappings of manifolds with corners. Although variants of such a theory exists in the literature, we felt that certain points were not adequately…

We study mean curvature flow of smooth, axially symmetric surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with Neumann boundary data. We show that all singularities at the first singular time must be of type I.

The considered continuous-and-discrete hybrid system is a cyclic relay of smooth flows on an $n$-dimensional manifold $M$, where the discrete process of switching from each flow to the next takes place on the boundaries of the corresponding…

In 'supersingular' scattering the potential $g^2U_A(r)$ involves a variable nonlinear parameter $A$ upon the increase of which the potential also increases beyond all limits everywhere off the origin and develops a uniquely high level of…

This paper proves that, at the first singular time for a smoothly immersed surface moving by mean curvature flow in a n-manifold, each tangent flow is given by a smooth, branched shrinker, possibly with multiplicity. If n=3 and if the…

We consider harmonic maps into pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. We show the removability of isolated singularities for continuous maps, i.e. that any continuous map from an open subset of R^m into a pseudo-Riemannian manifold which is two times…

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.

Consider a Riemannian metric on two-torus. We prove that the question of existence of polynomial first integrals leads naturally to a remarkable system of quasi-linear equations which turns out to be a Rich system of conservation laws. This…

We construct a smooth, area preserving, mixing flow with finitely many non-degenerate fixed points and no saddle connections on a closed surface of genus 5. This resolves a problem that has been open for four decades.

We performed a numerical study of the efficiency of mixing by alternating horizontal and vertical shear ``wedge'' flows on the two-dimensional torus. Our results suggest that except in cases where each individual flow is applied for only a…

If we perturb a completely integrable Hamiltonian system with two degrees of freedom, the perturbed flow might display, on every energy level, invariant sets that are laminations over Aubry-Mather sets of a Poincar\'e section of the flow.…

Many real-analytic flows, e.g. in chemical kinetics, share a multiple time scale spectral structure. The trajectories of the corresponding dynamical systems are observed to bundle near so-called slow invariant manifolds (SIMs), which are…

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…
