The $249,103 award to the Research Foundation of the City University of New York, effective July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2026, will support research aimed at developing new conceptual ideas, approaches, and theoretical frameworks to transcend the limitations of...

This $200,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) supports research by Cornell University on Anosov flows in 3-dimensional spaces. The project aims to describe and classify all Anosov flows on 3-manifolds, an open problem since the 1960s. It will investigate the relationship between the topology and geometry of the foliations associated with Anosov flows and the structure of the 3-manifold and flow dynamics. This work builds on the PI's previous research using dimension reduction techniques. The project will produce new invariants for classification and solve open conjectures, such as the finiteness problem. It will also explore connections between discrete group actions on the plane/circle and continuous flows on 3-manifolds, advancing the understanding of dynamics and low-dimensional topology. No sub-awards are planned under this grant, which has an award date of July 15, 2025 and an ultimate completion date of June 30, 2028.
