INSTABILITY OF HAMILTONIAN SYSTEMS IN THE SENSE OF CHIRIKOV AND BIFURCATION IN A NON LINEAR EVOLUTION PROBLEM EMANATING FROM PHYSICS
2004
We prove the existence of a minimal geometrico-dynamical condition to create hyperbolicity in section in the vicinity of a transversal homoclinic partially hyperbolic torus in a near integrable Hamiltonian system with three degrees of freedom. We deduce in this context a generalization of the Easton's theorem of symbolic dynamics. Then we give the optimal estimation of the Arnold diffusion time along a transition chain in the initially hyperbolic Hamiltonian systems with three degrees of freedom with a surrounding chain of hyperbolic periodic orbits .In a second part, we describe geometrically a mechanism of diffusion studied by Chirikov in a near integrable Hamiltonian system with three de…
Finite quotients of the Picard group and related hyperbolic tetrahedral and Bianchi groups
2001
There is an extensive literature on the fi{}nite index subgroups and the fi{}nite quotient groups of the Picard group $PSL\left(2,\mathbb{Z}\mid i\mid\right)$. The main result of the present paper is the classifi{}cation of all linear fractional groups $PSL\left(2,p^{m}\right)$ which occur as fi{}nite quotients of the Picard group. We classify also the fi{}nite quotients of linear fractional type of various related hyperbolic tetrahedral groups which uniformize the cusped orientable hyperbolic 3-orbifolds of minimal volumes. Also these cusped tetrahedral groups are of Bianchi type, that is of the form $PSL\left(2,\mathbb{Z}\mid\omega\mid\right)$ or $PGL\left(2,\mathbb{Z}\mid\omega\mid\right…
On the classification of Kim and Kostrikin manifolds
2006
International audience; We completely classify the topological and geometric structures of some series of closed connected orientable 3-manifolds introduced by Kim and Kostrikin in [20, 21] as quotient spaces of certain polyhedral 3-cells by pairwise identifications of their boundary faces. Then we study further classes of closed orientable 3-manifolds arising from similar polyhedral schemata, and describe their topological properties.
Hyperbolic isometries versus symmetries of links
2009
We prove that every finite group is the orientation-preserving isometry group of the complement of a hyperbolic link in the 3-sphere.
Conway irreducible hyperbolic knots with two common covers
2005
International audience; For each pair of coprime integers n > m ≥ 2 we construct pairs of non equivalent Conway irreducible hyperbolic knots with the same n-fold and m-fold cyclic branched covers.
3-manifolds which are orbit spaces of diffeomorphisms
2008
Abstract In a very general setting, we show that a 3-manifold obtained as the orbit space of the basin of a topological attractor is either S 2 × S 1 or irreducible. We then study in more detail the topology of a class of 3-manifolds which are also orbit spaces and arise as invariants of gradient-like diffeomorphisms (in dimension 3). Up to a finite number of exceptions, which we explicitly describe, all these manifolds are Haken and, by changing the diffeomorphism by a finite power, all the Seifert components of the Jaco–Shalen–Johannson decomposition of these manifolds are made into product circle bundles.
Non subanalyticity of sub-Riemannian Martinet spheres
2001
Abstract Consider the sub-Riemannian Martinet structure (M,Δ,g) where M= R 3 , Δ= Ker ( d z− y 2 2 d x) and g is the general gradated metric of order 0 : g=(1+αy) 2 d x 2 +(1+βx+γy) 2 d y 2 . We prove that if α≠0 then the sub-Riemannian spheres S(0,r) with small radii are not subanalytic.
Minimum Time Control of the Restricted Three-Body Problem
2012
The minimum time control of the circular restricted three-body problem is considered. Controllability is proved on an adequate submanifold. Singularities of the extremal flow are studied by means of a stratification of the switching surface. Properties of homotopy maps in optimal control are framed in a simple case. The analysis is used to perform continuations on the two parameters of the problem: The ratio of the masses, and the magnitude of the control.
Moment-angle complexes and complexe manifolds
2010
The aim of this thesis is to extend the results of the article [B-M] on the relations between moment-angle complexes and complex manifolds. We will focus here on moment-angle complexes defined by a simplicial (not only polytopal) decomposition of the sphere. We will also seek to use the relationship between these two kinds of objects to be understand the topology of several complex manifolds.

The Role of Differential Parameters in Beltrami's Work
1997
Abstract Differential parameters play a relevant role in Beltrami's mathematical work. They are employed in different contexts, in order to express some well-known results in a new way and to extend potential theory and the theory of elasticity to a Riemannian manifold. The author aims to show that differential parameters enabled Beltrami to solve many mathematical questions and that they constitute the first step toward the conception of tensor calculus. Les parametres differentiels jouent un role important dans l'oeuvre mathematique de Beltrami. Ils sont employes en contextes differents, pour exprimer dans une maniere nouvelle quelques resultats bien-connus et pour generaliser la theorie …
