We study the scattering rigidity problem for standard stationary manifolds using timelike geodesics with a fixed momentum. Taking advantage of the symmetry of this manifolds, we use Hamiltonian reduction to show that this problem is related…

We give a new analytical proof of the Morse index theorem for geodesics in Riemannian manifolds.

We develop a calculus based on graph enumeration for $S_n$-equivariant motivic invariants of graphically stratified moduli spaces. We apply our theory to the Deligne--Mumford moduli space $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g, n}$ and to the space of…

We study notions of conjugate points along timelike geodesics in the synthetic setting of Lorentzian (pre-)length spaces, inspired by earlier work for metric spaces by Shankar--Sormani. After preliminary considerations on convergence of…

We study the Lorentzian metric independent of the time variable in the cylinder $\mathbb{R}\times\Omega$ where $x_0\in\mathbb{R}$ is the time variable and $\Omega$ is a bounded smooth domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We consider forward…

This paper is a first of a series of three papers which study eta invariants for laminations. In this first paper, we extend the results of Higson and Roe to deal with regular (unbounded) operators and more importantly to take into account…

We show that the Morse boundary of a Morse local-to-global group is $\sigma$-compact. Moreover, we show that the converse holds for small cancellation groups. As an application, we show that the Morse boundary of a non-hyperbolic, Morse…

An iterative map of the unit disc in the complex plane (Appendix) is used to explore certain aspects of selfdual, four dimensional gauge fields (quasi)periodic in the Euclidean time. These fields are characterized by two topological numbers…

We show that, on a complete and possibly non-compact Riemannian manifold of dimension at least 2 without close conjugate points at infinity, the existence of a closed geodesic with local homology in maximal degree and maximal index growth…

This note proves that any locally extremal non-self-conjugate geodesic loop in a Riemannian manifold is a closed geodesic. As a consequence, any complete and non-contractible Riemannian manifold with diverging injectivity radii along…

In this paper we consider Lipschitz graphs of functions which are stationary points of strictly polyconvex energies. Such graphs can be thought as integral currents, resp. varifolds, which are stationary for some elliptic integrands. The…

We analyze a variational time discretization of geodesic calculus on finite- and certain classes of infinite-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. We investigate the fundamental properties of discrete geodesics, the associated discrete…

We prove upper bounds for the Morse index and number of intersections of min-max geodesics achieving the $p$-widths of a closed surface. A key tool in our analysis is a proof that for a generic set of metrics, the tangent cone at any vertex…

In this paper we give a proof of the existence of an orthogonal geodesic chord on a Riemannian manifold homeomorphic to a closed disk and with concave boundary. This kind of study is motivated by the link of the multiplicity problem with…

We study the asymptotics of the number N(t) of geometrically distinct closed geodesics of a Riemannian or Finsler metric on a connected sum of two compact manifolds of dimension at least three with non-trivial fundamental groups and apply…

We obtain a generic regularity result for stationary integral $n$-varifolds with only strongly isolated singularities inside $N$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds, in absence of any restriction on the dimension ($n\geq 2$) and codimension.…

We investigate suitable, physically motivated conditions on spacetimes containing certain submanifolds - the so-called {weakly trapped submanifolds} - that ensure, in a set of neighboring metrics with respect to a convenient topology, that…

This is the second part of a two--part series investigating bifurcation phenomena in autonomous Lagrangian systems and geodesic flows on Finsler and Riemannian manifolds. Building upon the abstract bifurcation theorems established in…

We study the length, weak length and complex length spectrum of closed geodesics of a compact flat Riemannian manifold, comparing length-isospectrality with isospectrality of the Laplacian acting on p-forms. Using integral roots of the…

In this paper, we first establish the Bott-type iteration formulas and some abstract precise iteration formulas of the Maslov-type index theory associated with a Lagrangian subspace for symplectic paths. As an application, we prove that…
