Pressure Rigidity of Three Dimensional Contact Anosov Flows
نویسنده
چکیده
Let φt be a three dimensional contact Anosov flow. Then we prove that its cohomological pressure coincides with its metric entropy if and only if φt is C ∞ flow equivalent to a special time change of a three dimensional algebraic contact Anosov flow.

Tight contact structures and Anosov flows
In this review, we demonstrate how classic and contemporary results on the classification of tight contact structures apply to the problem of existence and uniqueness of Anosov flows on three-manifolds. The ingredients we use are the results of Mitsumatsu on Anosov flows, the homotopy invariant of plane fields as described by Gompf and others, and certain recent classification results of Giroux...
متن کاملSmooth Rigidity of Uniformly Quasiconformal Anosov Flows
We classify the C∞ volume-preserving uniformly quasiconformal Anosov flows, such that E+⊕E− is C∞ and the dimensions of E+ and E− are at least two. Then we deduce a classification of volume-preserving uniformly quasiconformal Anosov flows with smooth distributions.
متن کاملOn Orbit Equivalence of Quasiconformal Anosov Flows
We classify up to C∞ orbit equivalence the volume-preserving quasiconformal Anosov flows whose strong stable and strong unstable distributions are at least three-dimensional. If one of the strong distributions is two-dimensional, then we get a partial classification. Using these classification results, we obtain the following rigidity result : Let Φ the the orbit foliation of the geodesic flow ...
متن کاملGeometric Anosov flows of dimension five with smooth distributions
We classify the five dimensional C Anosov flows which have C-Anosov splitting and preserve a smooth pseudo-Riemannian metric . Up to a special time change and finite covers, such a flow is C flow equivalent either to the suspension of a symplectic hyperbolic automorphism of T4, or to the geodesic flow on a three dimensional hyperbolic manifold.
متن کاملMarkov approximations and decay of correlations for Anosov flows
We develop Markov approximations for very general suspension flows. Based on this, we obtain a stretched exponential bound on time correlation functions for 3-D Anosov flows that verify ‘uniform nonintegrability of foliations’. These include contact Anosov flows and geodesic flows on compact surfaces of variable negative curvature. Our bound on correlations is stable under small smooth perturba...
