Smooth rigidity for 3-dimensional volume preserving Anosov flows and weighted marked length spectrum rigidity

Abstract: Let

X_{1}^{t}

and

X_{2}^{t}

be volume preserving Anosov flows on a 3-dimensional manifold

M

. We prove that if

X_{1}^{t}

and

X_{2}^{t}

are

C^{0}

conjugate then the conjugacy is, in fact, smooth, unless

M

is a mapping torus of an Anosov automorphism of

m a t h b b T^{2}

and both flows are constant roof suspension flows. We deduce several applications. Among them is a new result on rigidity of Anosov diffeorphisms on

m a t h b b T^{2}

and a new "weighted" marked length spectrum rigidity result for surfaces of negative curvature.
