Right-handed flows on $S^3$ and a quantitative condition to find explicit examples.
Abstract: Global surfaces of section for Reeb flows in dimension 3 are powerful
tools to study the associated dynamics. Among Reeb flows on the
3-sphere, those that are
right-handed in the sense of Ghys exhibit lots of such global
surfaces of section: indeed, Ghys proved that for a right-handed flow
any finite (non-empty) collection of periodic orbits is the boundary of a
global surface of section. In a joint work with
U. L. Hryniewicz, we give a sufficient condition to assure that a flow
is right-handed. After presenting our condition, we discuss
applications, notably to strictly convex energy levels of Hamiltonian
flows on $\R^4$ and to Riemannian geodesic flows on the
2-sphere.

Quasimorphisms and Lagrangian links on the 2-sphere
Abstract: When
a group G is simple, there is no non-trivial homomorphism from G to the
real line but G can possibly have a lot of quasimorphisms. It makes
quasimorphisms an important concept in studying groups. In particular,
it is an interesting question to ask how many quasimorphisms a group
has. In this talk, I will explain how to use Floer theory to construct
uncountably many linearly independent homogeneous quasimorphisms on the
area-preserving diffeomorphism/homeomorphism group of the 2-sphere,
which answers a question of Entov-Polterovich-Py. This is based on a
joint work with Daniel Cristofaro-Gardiner, Vincent Humilière, Sobhan
Seyfaddini and Ivan Smith.
