The author shows that equicontinuous geodesic flows on surfaces are periodic. A similar result for flows on 3-manifolds is also proven. The idea of the proof is to show that the return map is recurrent and therefore periodic.
We prove a nonstandard central limit theorem and weak invariance principle, with superdiffusive normalisation $(t\log t)^{1/2}$, for geodesic flows on a class of nonpositively curved surfaces with flat cylinder. We also prove that…
We employ the curve shortening flow to establish three new results on the dynamics of geodesic flows of closed Riemannian surfaces. The first one is the stability, under $C^0$-small perturbations of the Riemannian metric, of certain flat…
In this paper, we consider a fully nonlinear curvature flow of a convex hypersurface in the Euclidean n-space. This flow involves k-th elementary symmetric function for principal curvature radii and a function of support function. Under…
We study the geodesic flow of a compact surface without conjugate points and genus greater than one and continuous Green bundles. Identifying each strip of bi-asymptotic geodesics induces an equivalence relation on the unit tangent bundle.…
This paper is devoted to the geometric analysis of the incompressible averaged Euler equations on compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary. The equation also coincides with the model for a second-grade non-Newtonian fluid. We study the…
In this paper we study the behavior of geodesics on cones over arbitrary $C^3$-smooth closed Riemannian manifolds. We show that the geodesic flow on such cones admits first integrals whose values uniquely determine almost all geodesics…
Assuming a-priori a smooth generating vector field, we introduce a generally covariant measure of the flow geometry called the referential gradient of the flow. The main result is the explicit relation between the referential gradient and…
In this paper, we introduce a new parabolic equation on K\"ahler manifolds. The static point of this flow is related to the existence of a lower bound of the Mabuchi energy. In this paper, we prove the flow always exists for all times for…
In this paper, we consider minimal graphs in the three-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M\times\mathbb{R}$. We mainly estimate the Gaussian curvature of such surfaces. We consider the minimal disks and minimal graphs bounded by two Jordan…
We study the generalized K\"ahler-Ricci flow on complex surfaces with nondegenerate Poisson structure, proving long time existence and convergence of the flow to a weak hyperK\"ahler structure.
We continue the comparison between lines of minima and Teichmueller geodesics begun in [CRS1]. We show that in the Teichmueller space of a surface S, lines of minima are quasi-geodesic with respect to the Teichmueller metric. The…
Pressure-driven flow collapses when confined ($u\propto r^{2}$). Asymmetry rectifies surface activity (exchange or slip gradients) into axial flux at $\Delta P=0$ despite zero net exchange. Lorentz reciprocity yields a projection law:…
In this paper, we introduce a geometric flow for Lagrangian submanifolds in a K\"ahler manifold that stays in its initial Hamiltonian isotopy class and is a gradient flow for volume. The stationary solutions are the Hamiltonian stationary…
It is a well known phenomenon that many classical minimal surfaces in Euclidean space also exist with higher dihedral symmetry. More precisely, these surfaces are solutions to free boundary problems in a wedge bounded by two vertical planes…
We formulate a uniqueness conjecture for curve shortening flow of proper curves on certain symmetric surfaces and give an example of a non-flat metric on the plane with respect to which curve shortening flow is not unique. That is, with…
Suppose we are given a compact Riemannian manifold (Q,g)with completely integrable geodesic flow. Let G be a compact connected Lie group acting freely on Q by isometries. The natural question arises: will the geodesic flow on Q/G equipped…
We consider the Weil-Petersson gradient vector field of renormalized volume on the deformation space of convex cocompact hyperbolic structures on (relatively) acylindrical manifolds. In this paper we prove the conjecture that the flow has a…
Minimal surfaces with planar curvature lines are classical geometric objects, having been studied since the late 19th century. In this paper, we revisit the subject from a different point of view. After calculating their metric functions…
Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold of hyperbolic type, i.e M is a manifold admitting another metric of strictly negative curvature. In this paper we study the geodesic flow restricted to the set of geodesics which are minimal on the…
