The Morse landscape of a riemannian disk

S. Frankel, Michael Katz (1993)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

We study upper bounds on the length functional along contractions of loops in Riemannian disks of bounded diameter and circumference. By constructing metrics adapted to imbedded trees of increasing complexity, we reduce the nonexistence of such upper bounds to the study of a topological invariant of imbedded finite trees. This invariant is related to the complexity of the binary representation of integers. It is also related to lower bounds on the number of points in level sets of a real-valued...

The Ruelle rotation of Killing vector fields

Konstantin Athanassopoulos (2009)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We present an explicit formula for the Ruelle rotation of a nonsingular Killing vector field of a closed, oriented, Riemannian 3-manifold, with respect to Riemannian volume.
