Abstract

The purpose of this research is to describe all smooth vector fields on the torus T2 with a finite number of singularities, no periodic orbits and no saddleconnections. In this paper we are able to complete the description within the class of vector fields which are area contracting near all singularities. In particular we give a large class of analytic vector fields on the torus T2 which have non-trivial recurrence and also sinks.
