Multiplicity of closed geodesics on Finsler spheres with irrationally elliptic closed geodesics [PDF]

open access: yesScience China Mathematics, 2015
If all prime closed geodesics on $(S^n,F)$ with an irreversible Finsler metric $F$ are irrationally elliptic, there exist either exactly $2\left[\frac{n+1}{2}\right]$ or infinitely many distinct closed geodesics. As an application, we show the existence of three distinct closed geodesics on bumpy Finsler $(S^3,F)$ if any prime closed geodesic has non ...

Closed Geodesics with Lipschitz Obstacle

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Analysis and Applications, 1999
It is considered a different kind of nonsmooth subset of \(\mathbb{R}^n\) with Lipschitz boundary. A new definition for geodesics on a general subset of \(\mathbb{R}^n\) is proposed and their basic property is showed. This definition is related to the nonsmooth critical point theory, presented below.

Counting closed geodesics in moduli space

open access: yesJournal of Modern Dynamics, 2011
We compute the asymptotics, as R tends to infinity, of the number of closed geodesics in Moduli space of length at most R, or equivalently the number of pseudo-Anosov elements of the mapping class group of translation length at most R.

Connecting and Closed Geodesics of a Kropina Metric

open access: yesAdvanced Nonlinear Studies, 2021
We prove some results about existence of connecting and closed geodesics in a manifold endowed with a Kropina metric. These have applications to both null geodesics of spacetimes endowed with a null Killing vector field and Zermelo’s navigation problem ...

Endpoint Geodesic Formulas on Graßmannians Applied to Interpolation Problems

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
Simple closed formulas for endpoint geodesics on Graßmann manifolds are presented. In addition to realizing the shortest distance between two points, geodesics are also essential tools to generate more sophisticated curves that solve higher order ...

Concentration of closed geodesics in the homology of modular curves

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma, 2023
We prove that the homology classes of closed geodesics associated to subgroups of narrow class groups of real quadratic fields concentrate around the Eisenstein line.

The Global Attractor of the Allen-Cahn Equation on the Sphere

open access: yesFrontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2020
In this paper we study the attractor of a parabolic semiflow generated by a singularly perturbed PDE with a non-linear term given by a bistable potential, in an oval surface; the Allen-Cahn equation being a prototypical example.
