The horospherical Gauss-Bonnet type theorem in hyperbolic space
2006
We introduce the notion horospherical curvatures of hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space and show that totally umbilic hypersurfaces with vanishing cur- vatures are only horospheres. We also show that the Gauss-Bonnet type theorem holds for the horospherical Gauss-Kronecker curvature of a closed orientable even dimensional hypersurface in hyperbolic space. + (i1) by using the model in Minkowski space. We introduced the notion of hyperbolic Gauss indicatrices slightly modified the definition of hyperbolic Gauss maps. The notion of hyperbolic indicatrices is independent of the choice of the model of hyperbolic space. Using the hyperbolic Gauss indicatrix, we defined the principal hyperbolic curv…
Appendix: Diophantine Approximation on Hyperbolic Surfaces
2002
In this (independent) appendix, we study the Diophantine approximation properties for the particular case of the cusped hyperbolic surfaces, in the spirit of Sect. 2 (or [11]), and the many still open questions that arise for them. We refer to [9], [10]for fundamental results and further developments. We study in particular the distance to a cusp of closed geodesics on a hyperbolic surface.
On bounds for total absolute curvature of surfaces in hyperbolic 3-space
2003
Abstract We construct examples of surfaces in hyperbolic space which do not satisfy the Chern–Lashof inequality (which holds for immersed surfaces in Euclidean space). To cite this article: R. Langevin, G. Solanes, C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris, Ser. I 336 (2003).
Non-wandering sets with non-empty interiors
2003
We study diffeomorphisms of a closed connected manifold whose non-wandering set has a non-empty interior and conjecture that C1-generic diffeomorphisms whose non-wandering set has a non-empty interior are transitive. We prove this conjecture in three cases: hyperbolic diffeomorphisms, partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms with two hyperbolic bundles, and tame diffeomorphisms (in the first case, the conjecture is folklore; in the second one, it follows by adapting the proof in Brin (1975 Topological transitivity of a certain class of dynamical systems, and flows of frames on manifolds of negative curvature Funct. Anal. Appl. 9 9–19)).We study this conjecture without global assumptions and pro…
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.
