Geometry and Topology Seminar: "Symplectic geometry of Anosov flows in dimension 3 and bi-contact topology"

Speaker: Surena Hozoori, Georgia Institute of Technology

Abstract: We give a purely contact and symplectic geometric characterization of Anosov flows in dimension 3 and set up a framework to use tools from contact and symplectic geometry and topology in the study of questions about Anosov dynamics. If time permits, we will discuss a characterization of Anosovity based on Reeb flows and its consequences.
