We prove that a typical interval exchange transformation is either weakly mixing or it an irrational rotation.We also conclude translation flow on surface of genus g ≥ 2 (with prescribed singularity types) mixing.*A.Avila would like to thank Jean-Christophe Yoccoz for several very productive discussions and Jean-Paul Thouvenot proposing the problem his continuous
There are infinitely many obstructions to the existence of smooth solutions cohomological equation Uu=f, where U is vector field generating horocycle flow on unit tangent bundle SM a Riemann surface M finite area and f given function SM. We study Sobolev regularity these obstructions, construct equation, derive asymptotics for ergodic averages flows.
We investigated predictive factors of failure and performed a resource consumption analysis in patients who underwent active surveillance for nonmuscle invasive bladder cancer.This prospective observational study monitored with history pathologically confirmed stage pTa (grade 1-2) or pT1a 2) cancer, recurrent small size number tumors without hematuria positive urine cytology. The primary end point was the rate surveillance. Assessment variables per year direct hospital were secondary...
In patients with heart failure the risk of systemic thromboembolism and benefit anticoagulation are uncertain. To assess incidence factors associated an increased risk, 406 consecutive chronic were prospectively investigated. Their left ventricular ejection fraction was 23±8%, pulmonary wedge pressure 19±10 mmHg cardiac index 2.3±1.41. min−1 . m−2 body surface area. Two hundred in NYHA functional class III-IV. thirty-two receiving oral anticoagulants. Over a follow-up period 16±11 months,...
This text is an expanded version of the lecture notes a minicourse (with same title this text) delivered by authors in Będlewo school ``Modern Dynamics and its Interaction with Analysis, Geometry Number Theory'' (from 4 to 16 July, 2011).  In first part text, i.e., from Sections 1 5, we discuss Teichmüller moduli space translation surfaces, flow $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$-action on these spacesand Kontsevich--Zorich cocycle over geodesic flow. We sketch two applications ergodic properties...
Abstract Natriuretic peptides (NP) are recognized as the most powerful predictors of adverse outcomes in heart failure (HF). We hypothesized that a measure functional limitation, assessed by 6-min walking test (6MWT), would improve accuracy prognostic model incorporating NP. This was multicenter observational retrospective study. studied value severe impairment (SFI), defined inability to perform 6MWT or distance walked during < 300 m, 1696 patients with HF admitted cardiac...
Following recent work of T.~Alazard and C.~Shao on applications para-differential calculus to smooth conjugacy stability problems for Hamiltonian systems, we prove finite codimension invariant surfaces (in differentiability classes) flat geodesic flows translation surfaces. The result is also based the author cohomological equation flows.
A cyclic cover of the complex projective line branched at four appropriate points has a natural structure square-tiled surface. We describe combinatorics such surface, geometry corresponding Teichmüller curve, and compute Lyapunov exponents determinant bundle over curve with respect to geodesic flow. This paper includes new example (announced by G. Forni C. Matheus in \cite{Forni:Matheus}) stratum Abelian differentials genus maximally degenerate Kontsevich--Zorich spectrum (the only known...
We introduce a twisted cohomology cocycle over the Teichmüller flow and prove “spectral gap” for its Lyapunov spectrum with respect to Masur–Veech measures. then derive Hölder estimates on spectral measures bounds speed of weak mixing almost all translation flows in every stratum Abelian differentials Riemann surfaces, as well deviation ergodic averages product surface circle.
We establish a geometric criterion on $SL(2, R)$-invariant ergodic probability measureon the moduli space of holomorphic abelian differentials Riemann surfacesfor nonuniform hyperbolicity Kontsevich--Zorich cocycle realHodge bundle. Applications include measures supported R)$-orbits ofall algebraically primitive Veech surfaces (see also [7]) andof all Prym eigenforms discovered in [34], as well canonicalabsolutely continuous connected components strata modulispace [4, 17]).

We consider smooth time-changes of the classical horocycle flows onthe unit tangent bundle a compact hyperbolic surface and provesharp bounds on rate equidistribution ofmixing. then derive results spectrum time-changesand show that is absolutely continuous with respect tothe Lebesgue measure real line maximal spectraltype equivalent to Lebesgue.
We refine the theory of cohomological equation for translation flows on higher genus surfaces with goal proving optimal results Sobolev regularity solutions and distributional obstructions. For typical our are sharp we find expected relation between obstructions Lyapunov exponents Kontsevich-Zorich renormalization cocycle. As a consequence exactly determine dimension space in each class terms exponents. fixed arbitrary surface direction, probably not but best which can be achieved available...
We study the Lyapunov spectrum of Kontsevich--Zorich cocycle on $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$-invariant subbundles Hodge bundle over support a probability measure moduli space Abelian differentials. In particular, we prove formulas for partial sums exponents in terms second fundamental form (or Kodaira--Spencer map) with respect to Gauss--Manin connection and investigate relations between central {Oseldets} subbundle kernel form. illustrate our conclusions two special cases.
We construct an orientable holomorphic quadratic differential on a Riemann surface of genus 4 whose SL(2,R)-orbit is closed and has highly degenerate Kontsevich - Zorich spectrum. This example related to previous similar construction in 3 by the first author.
