We study the entropy of Sinai-Ruelle-Bowen measure of the geodesic flow on convex real projective surfaces, and shows that the Hilbert area tends to infinity if the entropy tends to zero. For the Blaschke metric, the area tends to infinity…

Let (T^2, g) be a two-dimensional Riemannian torus. In this paper we prove that the topological entropy of the geodesic flow restricted to the set of initial conditions of minimal geodesics vanishes, independent of the choice of the…
Methods of Hamiltonian dynamics are applied to study the geodesic flow on the resolved conifolds over Sasaki-Einstein space $T^{1,1}$. We construct explicitly the constants of motion and prove complete integrability of geodesics in the…
We study the geodesic flow on the unit cotangent bundle $M=S^{*}\mathcal{N}$ of a closed hyperbolic surface $\mathcal{N}$, using the representation theory of $SL_{2}(\mathbb{R})$. We construct explicit $X$-adapted Hilbert spaces, obtained…
In this paper we construct a new class of surfaces whose geodesic flow is integrable (in the sense of Liouville). We do so by generalizing the notion of tubes about curves to 3-dimensional manifolds, and using Jacobi fields we derive…
We define a geometric flow that is designed to change surfaces of cylindrical type spanning two disjoint boundary curves into solutions of the Douglas-Plateau problem of finding minimal surfaces with given boundary curves. We prove that…
Following on from our previous study of the geodesic flow on three dimensional ellipsoid with equal middle semi-axes, here we study the remaining cases: Ellipsoids with two sets of equal semi-axes with $SO(2) \times SO(2)$ symmetry,…
Normal geodesic flows flows of Carnot-Caratheodory are discussed from the point of view of the theory of Hamiltonian systems. The geodesic flows corresponding to left-invariant metrics and left- and -right-invariant rank 2 distributions on…
A geometric flow on $(2,2)$-forms is introduced which preserves the balanced condition of metrics, and whose stationary points satisfy the anomaly equation in Strominger systems. The existence of solutions for a short time is established,…
We produce complete bounded curvature solutions to K\"ahler-Ricci flow with existence time estimates, assuming only that the initial data is a smooth \K metric uniformly equivalent to another complete bounded curvature \K metric. We obtain…
In this paper we study the geodesic flow on nilmanifolds equipped with a left-invariant metric. We write the underlying definitions and find general formulas for the Poisson involution. As an example we develop the Heisenberg Lie group…
In this paper, we mainly study the mean curvature flow in K\"ahler surfaces with positive holomorphic sectional curvatures. We prove that if the ratio of the maximum and the minimum of the holomorphic sectional curvatures is less than 2,…
In this paper we use a gradient flow to deform closed planar curves to curves with least variation of geodesic curvature in the $L^2$ sense. Given a smooth initial curve we show that the solution to the flow exists for all time and,…
In this paper, we study curve shortening flows on rotational surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$. We assume that the surfaces have negative Gauss curvatures and that some condition related to the Gauss curvature and the curvature of embedded curve…
In this paper, we discuss diameter bound and Gromov-Hausdorff convergence of a twisted conical K\"ahler-Ricci flow on the total spaces of some holomorphic submersions. We also observe that, starting from a model conical K\"ahler metric with…
We improve the description of $\mathbb{F}$-limits of noncollapsed Ricci flows in the K\"ahler setting. In particular, the singular strata $\mathcal{S}^k$ of such metric flows satisfy $\mathcal{S}^{2j}=\mathcal{S}^{2j+1}$. We also prove an…
We consider a pseudo-Riemannian metric that changes signature along a smooth curve on a surface, called the discriminant curve. The discriminant curve separates the surface locally into a Riemannian and a Lorentzian domain. We study the…
In this paper, we prove that K\"ahler-Ricci flow converges to a K\"ahler-Einstein metric (or a K\"ahler-Ricci soliton) in the sense of Cheeger-Gromov as long as an initial K\"ahler metric is very closed to $g_{KE}$ (or $g_{KS}$) if a…
In this paper we characterize logarithmic surfaces which admit K\"ahler-Einstein metrics with negative scalar curvature and small edge singularities along a normal crossing divisor.
