ENTROPY OF GEODESIC FLOWS ON SUBSPACES OF HECKE SURFACE WITH ARITHMETIC CODE

There are dierent ways to code the geodesic flows on surfaces with negative curvature. Such code spaces give a useful tool to verify the dynamical properties of geodesic flows. Here we consider special subspaces of geodesic flows on Hecke surface whose arithmetic codings varies on a set with innite alphabet. Then we will compare the topological complexity of them by computing their topological ...

Symbolic Dynamics for Three Dimensional Flows with Positive Topological Entropy

We construct symbolic dynamics on sets of full measure (with respect to an ergodic measure of positive entropy) for C1+ε flows on closed smooth three dimensional manifolds. One consequence is that the geodesic flow on the unit tangent bundle of a closed C∞ surface has at least const×(ehT /T ) simple closed orbits of period less than T , whenever the topological entropy h is positive – and witho...

Symbolic Dynamics for Hyperbolic Systems

◦ Geodesic flows on compact manifolds with negative sectional curvature. Later, we relax uniform hyperbolicity to an asymptotic one, called non-uniform hyperbolicity. Two examples of such systems are: ◦ Slow down of fA : T → T, see [9]. ◦ Geodesic flows on surfaces with nonpositive curvature. Introductory example: Smale’s horseshoe [21]. Let g : K → K be Smale’s horseshoe map, and σ : Σ→ Σ the ...

Rigidity of Equality of Lyapunov Exponents for Geodesic Flows

We study the relationship between the Lyapunov exponents of the geodesic flow of a closed negatively curved manifold and the geometry of the manifold. We show that if each periodic orbit of the geodesic flow has exactly one Lyapunov exponent on the unstable bundle then the manifold has constant negative curvature. We also show under a curvature pinching condition that equality of all Lyapunov e...

The Thermodynamic Formalism Approach to Selberg's Zeta Function for Psl(2, Z)

Besides the classical approach to Selberg's zeta function for cofinite Fuchsian groups [S] through the trace formula [V] there has been developed recently another one based on the thermodynamic formalism [R2] applied to the dynamical zeta function of Smale and Ruelle [F] which for geodesic flows on surfaces of constant negative curvature (c.n.c.) is closely related to Selberg's function for the...
