Let (W,M,M'), dim W > 5, be a non-trivial h-cobordism (i.e., the Whitehead torsion of (W,V) is non-zero). We prove that every smooth function f: W --> [0,1], f(M)=0, f(M')=1 has at least 2 critical points. This estimate is sharp: W…

In this paper we prove the existence of infinitely many closed Reeb orbits for a certain class of contact manifolds. This result can be viewed as a contact analogue of the Hamiltonian Conley conjecture. The manifolds for which the contact…

We obtain an analog of the prime number theorem for a class of branched covering maps on the $2$-sphere $S^2$ called expanding Thurston maps, which are topological models of some non-uniformly expanding rational maps without any smoothness…

The main result of this work is the following: for volume preserving flows on compact manifolds with the $C^r$ topology, $1 \leqq r \leqq \infty$ , the closure of every invariant manifold of periodic orbits and singularities is a chain…

We develop a geometric mechanism to prove the existence of orbits that drift along a prescribed sequence of cylinders, under some general conditions on the dynamics. This mechanism can be used to prove the existence of Arnold diffusion for…

We study absolutely periodic points and trajectories of Hamiltonian systems. Our main result is a necessary and sufficient for a Hamiltonian system to have the following property: if there exists one absolutely periodic trajectory then all…

The "Seifert Conjecture" asks, "Does every non-singular vector field on the 3-sphere ${\mathbb S}^3$ have a periodic orbit?" In a celebrated work, Krystyna Kuperberg gave a construction of a smooth aperiodic vector field on a plug, which is…

We prove that the fundamental group of the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of the symplectic manifold that is obtain by blowing up a submanifold contains an element of infinite order. We prove this using Weinstein's morphism and by…

We exhibit many examples of closed symplectic manifolds on which there is an autonomous Hamiltonian whose associated flow has no nonconstant periodic orbits (the only previous explicit example in the literature was the torus T^2n (n\geq 2)…

We establish a criterion on wrapped Floer homology of an exact Lagrangian sub- manifold in a Liouville domain, which ensures the almost-existence of Hamiltonian chords near a given energy level. To this purpose we introduce a relative…

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…

We study Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms on symplectic Euclidean spaces that are equal to non-degenerate linear maps at infinity. Under the assumption that there exists an isolated homologically nontrivial fixed point satisfying the twist…

Using an estimate on the number of critical points for a Morse-even function on the sphere $\mathbb S^m$, $m\ge1$, we prove a multiplicity result for orthogonal geodesic chords in Riemannian manifolds with boundary that are diffeomorphic to…

The present paper is a continuation of the study of the interplay between the contact Hamiltonian dynamics and the moduli theory of (perturbed) contact instantons and its applications initiated in [Oh21b, Oh22a]. In this paper we prove…

An estimate on the number of distinct relative periodic orbits around a stable relative equilibrium in a Hamiltonian system with continuous symmetry is given. This result constitutes a generalization to the Hamiltonian symmetric framework…

We give a detailed construction of a proper C^2-smooth function on R^4 such that its Hamiltonian flow has no periodic orbits on at least one regular level set. This result can be viewed as a C^2-smooth counterexample to the Hamiltonian…

In this article, we study the knots realized by periodic orbits of R-covered Anosov flows in compact 3-manifolds. We show that if two orbits are freely homotopic then in fact they are isotopic. We show that lifts of periodic orbits to the…

The main result of this note is that every closed Hamiltonian S^1 manifold is uniruled, i.e. it has a nonzero Gromov--Witten invariant one of whose constraints is a point. The proof uses the Seidel representation of \pi_1 of the Hamiltonian…

In this note we present a brief introduction to Lagrangian Floer homology and its relation with the solution of Arnol'd conjecture, on the minimal number of non-degenerate fixed points of a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism. We start with the…

Let $f:T^2\to\mathbb{R}$ be a Morse function on $2$-torus $T^2$ such that its Kronrod-Reeb graph $\Gamma(f)$ has exactly one cycle, i.e. it is homotopy equivalent to $S^1$. Under some additional conditions we describe a homotopy type of the…
