英文摘要：

We prove that every 3-manifold possesses a $C^1$, volume-preserving flow with no fixed points and no closed trajectories. The main construction is a volume-preserving version of the Schweitzer plug. We also prove that every 3-manifold possesses a volume-preserving, $C^\infty$ flow with discrete closed trajectories and no fixed points (as well as a PL flow with the same geometry), which is needed for the first result. The proof uses a Dehn-twisted Wilson-type plug which also preserves volume.

Potential wells with a unique brake orbit. Counterexamples to a conjecture by H. Seifert

In this paper we prove the existence of real-analytic natural Hamiltonian systems - i.e. where H(q,p)=T(q,p)+V(q) in the 2N-dimensional real space, where N is any integer greater than 1 - with non critical energy levels E for the potential V such that the sublevel E of V is homeomorphic to the N-dimensional disk, and that only one brake orbit of energy E exists. A famous conjecture formulated by H. Seifert in 1948 claimed the existence of at least N distinct brake orbits for this situation.

Generalized counterexamples to the Seifert conjecture

Using the theory of plugs and the self-insertion construction due to the second author, we prove that a foliation of any codimension of any manifold can be modified in a real analytic or piecewise-linear fashion so that all minimal sets have codimension 1. In particular, the 3-sphere S^3 has a real analytic dynamical system such that all limit sets are 2-dimensional. We also prove that a 1-dimensional foliation of a manifold of dimension at least 3 can be modified in a piecewise-linear fashion so that there are no closed leaves but all minimal sets are 1-dimensional. These theorems provide new…

A C^2-smooth counterexample to the Hamiltonian Seifert conjecture in R^4

We give a detailed construction of a proper C^2-smooth function on R^4 such that its Hamiltonian flow has no periodic orbits on at least one regular level set. This result can be viewed as a C^2-smooth counterexample to the Hamiltonian Seifert conjecture in dimension four.

On the construction of a C^2-counterexample to the Hamiltonian Seifert Conjecture in R^4

We outline the construction of a proper C^2-smooth function on R^4 such that its Hamiltonian flow has no periodic orbits on at least one regular level set. This result can be viewed as a C^2-smooth counterexample to the Hamiltonian Seifert conjecture in dimension four.

New smooth counterexamples to the Hamiltonian Seifert conjecture

We construct a new aperiodic symplectic plug and hence new smooth counterexamples to the Hamiltonian Seifert conjecture in R^{2n} for n>2. In other words, we develop an alternative procedure, to those of V. L. Ginzburg and M. Herman, for constructing smooth Hamiltonian flows, on the standard symplectic R^{2n} for n>2, which have compact regular level sets that contain no periodic orbits. The plug described here is a modification of those built by Ginzburg. In particular, we utilize a different "trap" which makes the necessary embeddings of this plug much easier to construct.

Hamiltonian Dynamical Systems Without Periodic Orbits

The present paper is a review of counterexamples to the ``Hamiltonian Seifert conjecture'' or, more generally, of examples of Hamiltonian systems having no periodic orbits on a compact energy level. We begin with the discussion of the ``classical'' and volume--preserving Seifert conjectures. Then a construction of counterexamples to the Hamiltonian Seifert conjecture in dimensions greater than or equal to six is outlined, mainly following the method introduced by the author of the paper. The Hamiltonian version of Seifert's theorem is also stated. A list of all known at this moment examples an…

Centralizers of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms in dimension 3

In this note we describe centralizers of volume preserving partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms which are homotopic to identity on Seifert fibered and hyperbolic 3-manifolds. Our proof follows the strategy of Damjanovic, Wilkinson and Xu (arXiv:1902.05201) who recently classified the centralizer for perturbations of time-$1$ maps of geodesic flows in negative curvature. We strongly rely on recent classification results in dimension 3 established in (arXiv:1908.06227).

Nielsen zeta function, 3-manifolds and asymptotic expansions in Nielsen theory

We prove that the Nielsen zeta function is a rational function or a radical of a rational function for orientation preserving homeomorphisms on closed orientable 3-dimensional manifolds which are special Haken or Seifert manifolds. In the case of pseudo-Anosov homeomorphism of surface we compute an asymptotic for the number of twisted conjugacy classes or for the number of Nielsen fixed point classes whose norm is at most $x$.
