DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/CIRGET/118/"
 >Foliations\, contact structures and Anosov flows in dimension 3</a>\nby F
 ederico Salmoiraghi (Queens Univ.) as part of CRM - Séminaire du CIRGET /
  Géométrie et Topologie\n\nLecture held in PK-5115.\n\nAbstract\nAnosov 
 flows are an important class of dynamical systems due to their ergodic and
  geometric properties. Even though they represent examples of chaotic dyna
 mics\, they enjoy the remarkable property of being stable under small pert
 urbations. In this talk\, I will explain how\, perhaps surprisingly\, Anos
 ov flows are related to both integrable plane fields (foliations) and tota
 lly non-integrable plane fields (contact structures). The latter represent
 s a less-studied approach that has the potential to make new connections t
 o other branches of mathematics\, such as symplectic geometry and Hamilton
 ian dynamics. Along the way\, I will discuss some applications and example
 s with particular emphasis on the theory of surgery of Anosov flows.\n
