BINGHAMTON GEOMETRY/TOPOLOGY SEMINAR

*Date:*  Thursday, October 17th, 2013

*Time:*  2:50-3:50pm
*Place:*  Library North 2205 followed by coffee/tea in the Anderson
Reading Room.

*Speaker: ** *Rafael Potrie (Centre for Mathematics, Uruguay University)
*Title: * Partial hyperbolicity and foliations in some 3-dimensional
manifolds.

*Abstract:* Partially hyperbolic dynamics arise naturaly in the study of
certain robust dynamical phenomena. This talk is concerned with the study
of the existence and clasification of certain invariant foliations which
help understanding such systems. In 3-dimensional manifolds with solvable
fundamental group (using previous results), we get a classification result
in terms of those foliations. This is joint work with A. Hammerlindl.
