A closed contact manifold is called Besse when all its Reeb orbits are closed, and Zoll when they have the same minimal period. In this paper, we provide a characterization of Besse contact forms for convex contact spheres and Riemannian…

The systolic ratio of a contact form $\alpha$ on the three-sphere is the quantity \[ \rho_{\mathrm{sys}}(\alpha) = \frac{T_{\min}(\alpha)^2}{\mathrm{vol}(S^3,\alpha\wedge d\alpha)}, \] where $T_{\min}(\alpha)$ is the minimal period of…

We survey various recent results on the existence and properties of periodic orbits of Reeb vector fields in three dimensions. We give an introduction to the "elementary spectral invariants" of contact three-manifolds, and we explain how…

Let $\alpha$ be a contact form on a connected closed three-manifold $\Sigma$. The systolic ratio of $\alpha$ is defined as $\rho_{\mathrm{sys}}(\alpha):=\tfrac{1}{\mathrm{Vol}(\alpha)}T_{\min}(\alpha)^2$, where $T_{\min}(\alpha)$ and…

In a previous paper, we defined an "elementary" alternative to the ECH capacities of symplectic four-manifolds, using max-min energy of holomorphic curves subject to point constraints, and avoiding the use of Seiberg-Witten theory. In the…

A contact form is called Besse when the associated Reeb flow is periodic. We prove that Besse contact forms on closed connected 3-manifolds are the local maximizers of suitable higher systolic ratios. Our result extends earlier ones for…

In a neighborhood of a hyperbolic periodic orbit of a volume-preserving flow on a manifold of dimension 3, we define and show the existence of a normal form for the generator of the flow that encodes the dynamics. If the flow is a contact…

In this article, we identify the 5-dimensional analogue of the finite energy foliations introduced by Hofer--Wysocki--Zehnder for the study of 3-dimensional Reeb flows, and show that these exist for the spatial circular restricted…

We complete the spectral characterization of Besse and Zoll Reeb flows on the standard contact sphere $S^{2n-1}$ initiated by Ginzburg-G\"urel-Mazzucchelli. Roughly speaking, it states that a Reeb flow on the boundary of any star-shaped…

Let $\Sigma$ be a connected closed three-manifold, and let $t_\Sigma$ be the order of the torsion subgroup of $H_1(\Sigma;\mathbb Z)$. For a contact form $\alpha$ on $\Sigma$, we denote by $\mathrm{Volume}(\alpha)$ the contact volume of…

In this paper, we prove (1): for any closed contact three-manifold with a $C^\infty$-generic contact form, the union of periodic Reeb orbits is dense, (2): for any closed surface with a $C^\infty$-generic Riemannian metric, the union of…

We study the contact geometry of the connected components of the energy hypersurface, in the symmetric restricted 3-body problem on $\mathbb{S}^2$, for a specific type of motion of the primaries. In particular, we show that these components…

Here we prove that for each Hamiltonian function $H\in \mathcal{C}^\infty(\mathbb{R}^4, \mathbb{R})$ defined on the standard symplectic $(\mathbb{R}^4, \omega_0)$, for which $M:=H^{-1}(0)$ is a non-empty compact regular energy level, the…

In this article, we extend the methods from arXiv:2011.06568, where the five dimensional analogue of the three dimensional finite energy foliations introduced by Hofer--Wysocki--Zehnder was identified, to the case where there the underlying…

We prove the existence of an elliptic Reeb orbit for some contact forms on the real projective three space $\mathbb{R} P^3$. The main ingredient of the proof is the existence of a distinguished pseudoholomorphic curve in the symplectization…

Let $X \subset \mathbb{R}^4$ be a convex domain with smooth boundary $Y$. We use a relation between the extrinsic curvature of $Y$ and the Ruelle invariant $\text{Ru}(Y)$ of the natural Reeb flow on $Y$ to prove that there exist constants…

We study a variety of problems in the spectral theory of automorphic forms using entirely analytic techniques such as Selberg trace formula, asymptotics of Whittaker functions and behavior of heat kernels. Error terms for Weyl's law and an…

We show, using semiclassical measures and unstable derivatives, that a smooth vector field $X$ generating a contact Anosov flow on a $3$-dimensional manifold $\mathcal{M}$ has only finitely many Ruelle resonances in the vertical strips $\{…

Let A be an affine variety inside a complex N dimensional vector space which has an isolated singularity at the origin. The intersection of A with a very small sphere turns out to be a contact manifold called the link of A. Any contact…

We show that any co-oriented closed contact manifold of dimension at least five admits a contact form such that the contact volume is arbitrarily small but the Reeb flow admits a global hypersurface of section with the property that the…
