Let $S$ be a compact, connected, oriented surface, possibly with boundary, of negative Euler characteristic. In this article we extend Lindenstrauss-Mirzakhani's and Hamenst\"adt's classification of locally finite mapping class group…

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…

Let $(M,g)$ be a smooth, compact Riemannian manifold and $\{\phi_\lambda \}$ an $L^2$-normalized sequence of Laplace eigenfunctions, $-\Delta_g\phi_\lambda =\lambda^2 \phi_\lambda$. Given a smooth submanifold $H \subset M$ of codimension…

We study the structure of the Mather and Aubry sets for the family of lagrangians given by the kinetic energy associated to a riemannian metric $ g$ on a closed manifold $ M$. In this case the Euler-Lagrange flow is the geodesic flow of…

This work is devoted to the study of minimal, smooth actions of finitely generated groups on the circle. We provide a sufficient condition for such an action to be ergodic (with respect to the Lebesgue measure), and we illustrate this…

In this article, we study the ergodicity of the geodesic flows on surfaces with no focal points. Let $M$ be a smooth connected and closed surface equipped with a $C^\infty$ Riemannian metric $g$, whose genus $\mathfrak{g} \geq 2$. Suppose…

Motivated by various results on homogeneous geodesics of Riemannian spaces, we study homogeneous trajectories, i.e. trajectories which are orbits of a one-parameter symmetry group, of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian systems. We present criteria…

We consider a transversally conformal foliation $\mathcal{F}$ of a closed manifold $M$ endowed with a smooth Riemannian metric whose restriction to each leaf is negatively curved. We prove that it satisfies the following dichotomy. Either…

Compact hyperbolic 3-manifolds are used in cosmological models. Their topology is characterized by their homotopy group $\pi_1(M)$ whose elements multiply by path concatenation. The universal covering of the compact manifold $M$ is the…

In this survey article we gather classical as well as recent results on minimal geodesics of Riemannian or Finsler metrics, giving special attention to the two-dimensional case. Moreover, we present open problems together with some first…

Since their introduction by Thurston, measured geodesic laminations on hyperbolic surfaces occur in many contexts. In [Mor], we have introduced a notion of flat laminations on surfaces endowed with a half-translation structure (that is a…

Let $M=G/H$ be a compact, simply connected, Riemannian homogeneous space, where $G$ is (almost) effective and $H$ is a simple Lie group. In this paper, we first classify all $G$-naturally reductive metrics on $M$, and then all $G$-geodesic…

In this paper, we conduct a comprehensive study on ergodic properties of the geodesic flow on a $C^\infty$ uniform visibility manifold $M$ without conjugate points. If $M$ is a closed surface of genus at least two without conjugate points,…

We prove that the geodesic flow of a Kupka-Smale riemannian metric on a closed surface has homoclinic orbits for all of its hyperbolic closed geodesics.

The theorems of M. Ratner, describing the finite ergodic invariant measures and the orbit closures for unipotent flows on homogeneous spaces of Lie groups, are extended for actions of subgroups generated by unipotent elements. More…

Since their introduction by Thurston, measured geodesic laminations on hyperbolic surfaces occur in many contexts. In this survey, we give a generalization of geodesic laminations on surfaces endowed with a half-translation structure,…

The purpose of this paper is to study the action of the mapping class group on the moduli space of representations of the fundamental group of a non-orientable surface into SU(2). The action is shown to be ergodic with respect to a natural…

In this article we study geodesic flows on closed Riemannian manifolds without conjugate points and divergence property of geodesic rays. If the fundamental group is Gromov hyperbolic and residually finite we prove, under appropriate…

We study Riemannian metrics on 2-surfaces with integrable geodesic flows such that an additional first integral is high-degree polynomial in momenta. This problem reduces to searching for solutions to certain quasi-linear systems of PDEs…

We consider the problems of measurable isomorphisms and joinings, measurable centralizers and quotients for certain classes of ergodic group actions on infinite measure spaces. Our main focus is on systems of algebraic origin: actions of…
