Let X be a path-connected topological space admitting a universal cover. Let Homeo(X,a) denote the group of homeomorphisms of X preserving degree one cohomology class a. We investigate the distortion in Homeo(X,a). Let g be an element of…
For $C^2$ vector fields, we study regular ergodic measures whose supports admit singular dominated splittings with one of the bundles having dimension $1$. For such a measure $\mu$, we prove that if any periodic orbit within the support of…
We establish the relationship between the growth rate of periodic orbits and the topological entropy for $C^1$ generic vector fields: this extends a classical result of Katok for $C^{1+\alpha}(\alpha>0)$ surface diffeomorphisms to $C^1$…
A classical problem in dynamical systems is to measure the complexity of a map in terms of their orbits. One of the main tools we have to achieve this goal is entropy. However, many interesting families of dynamical systems have every…
We show that if $p_1,p_2$ are injective, integer polynomials that vanish at the origin, such that either both are of degree $1$ or both are of degree $2$ or higher, then double recurrence fails for non-commuting, mixing, zero entropy…
In this paper, we study the regularity of topological entropy, as a function on the space of Riemannian metrics endowed with the $C^0$ topology. We establish several instances of entropy robustness (persistence of entropy non-vanishing…
We give an equivalent characterisation for the existence of a semi-conjugacy to an irrational rotation for conservative homeomorphisms of the two-torus. This leads to an analogue of Poincare's classification of circle homeomorphisms for…
Let $S$ be a surface of nonpositive curvature of genus bigger than 1 (i.e. not the torus). We prove that any flat strip in the surface is in fact a flat cylinder. Moreover we prove that the number of homotopy classes of such flat cylinders…
Let $\alpha$ be an irrational number and $I$ an interval of $\mathbb{R}$. If $\alpha$ is Diophantine, we show that any one-parameter group of homeomorphisms of $I$ whose time-$1$ and $\alpha$ maps are $C^\infty$ is in fact the flow of a…
We prove that a polygonal billiard with one-sided mirrors has zero topological entropy. In certain cases we show sub exponential and for other polynomial estimates on the complexity.
In this paper, we study rigidity problems between Lyapunov exponents along periodic orbits and geometric structures. More specifically, we prove that for a surface M without focal points, if the value of the Lyapunov exponents is constant…
We study the root distribution of some univariate polynomials satisfying a recurrence of order two with linear and quadratic polynomial coefficients. We show that the set of non-isolated limits of zeros of the polynomials is the closure of…
The exponential map that characterises the flows of vector fields is the key in understanding the basic structural attributes of control systems in geometric control theory. However, this map does not exists due to the lack of completeness…
It is shown that if (M,phi,alpha) is a W*-dynamical system with M a type I von Neumann algebra then the entropy of alpha w.r.t. phi equals the entropy of the restriction of alpha to the center of M. If furthermore (N,psi,beta) is a…
We study the long time behavior of the volume preserving $p$-flow in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ for $1\leq p<\frac{n+1}{n-1}$. By extending Andrews' technique for the flow along the affine normal, we prove that every centrally symmetric solution to…
Let $N$ be a compact manifold with a foliation $\mathscr{F}_N$ whose leaves are compact strictly convex projective manifolds. Let $M$ be a compact manifold with a foliation $\mathscr{F}_M$ whose leaves are compact hyperbolic manifolds of…
We prove that if $n\geq 2$, then there is no $C^1$-diffeomorphism $f$ of $n$-torus, such that $f$ is semi-conjugate to a minimal translation and its wandering domains are geometric balls. This improves a recent result of A. Navas, who…
Unipotent flows are well-behaved dynamical systems. In particular, Marina Ratner has shown that the closure of every orbit for such a flow is of a nice algebraic (or geometric) form. After presenting some consequences of this important…
We show that in the neighborhood of the tripling bifurcation of a periodic orbit of a Hamiltonian flow or of a fixed point of an area preserving map, there is generically a bifurcation that creates a ``twistless'' torus. At this…
This paper studies the asymptotic behavior of the flux and circulation of a subclass of random fields within the family of 2-dimensional vector ambit fields. We show that, under proper normalization, the flux and the circulation converge…
