We consider a one-dimensional persisent random walk viewed as a deterministic process with a form of time reversal symmetry. Particle reservoirs placed at both ends of the system induce a density current which drives the system out of…

For a class of irrational numbers, depending on their Diophantine properties, we construct explicit rank-one transformations that are totally ergodic and not weakly mixing. We classify when the measure is finite or infinite. In the finite…

The topological entropy dimension is mainly used to distinguish the zero topological entropy systems. Two types of topological entropy dimensions, the classical entropy dimension and the Pesin entropy dimension, are investigated for…

We define notions of direction $L$ ergodicity, weak mixing, and mixing for a measure preserving $\mathbb Z^d$ action $T$ on a Lebesgue probability space $(X,\mu)$, where $L\subseteq\mathbb R^d$ is a linear subspace. For $\mathbb R^d$…

We study dynamical systems with the property that all the nontrivial factors have infinite topological entropy (or, positive mean dimension). We establish an ``if and only if'' condition for this property among a typical class of dynamical…

For each {\it well approximable} irrational $\theta$, we provide an explicit rank-one construction of the $e^{2\pi i\theta}$-rotation $R_\theta$ on the circle $\Bbb T$. This solves "almost surely" a problem by del Junco. For {\it every}…

This paper is a sequel to Chaika and Krishnan [arXiv:1612.00434]. We again consider translation invariant measures on families of nearest-neighbor semi-infinite walks on the integer lattice Z^d. We assume that once walks meet, they…

We develop information-theoretic measures of spatial structure and pattern in more than one dimension. As is well known, the entropy density of a two-dimensional configuration can be efficiently and accurately estimated via a converging…

This paper defines and discusses the dimension notion of topological slow entropy of any subset for Z^d actions. Also, the notion of measure-theoretic slow entropy for Z^d actions is presented, which is modified from Brin and Katok [2].…

We study thermodynamics of entanglement entropy for weakly excited states in certain non-conformal fields theories, whose gravity duals are given by non-conformal Dp-branes. We observe that the entanglement entropy of a sufficiently small…

We show that for every linear toral automorphism, especially the non-hyperbolic ones, the entropies of ergodic measures form a dense set on the interval from zero to the topological entropy.

In this work we study the problem of positiveness of topological entropy for flows using pointwise dynamics. We show that the existence of a non-periodic nonwandering point of an expansive and non-singular flow with shadowing is a…

We prove the validity of maximum principles for a class of fully nonlinear operators on unbounded subdomains $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^n$ of cylindrical type. The main structural assumption is the uniform ellipticity of the operator along…

A run-and-tumble particle in a one dimensional box (infinite potential well) is studied. The steady state is analytically solved and analyzed, revealing the emergent length scale of the boundary layer where particles accumulate near the…

We prove that for every ergodic invariant measure with positive entropy of a continuous map on a compact metric space there is $\delta>0$ such that the dynamical $\delta$-balls have measure zero. We use this property to prove, for instance,…

Let $\Gamma$ be a sofic group with a copy of $\mathbb{Z}$ in its center. We construct an uncountable family of pairwise nonisomorphic measure-preserving $\Gamma$ actions with completely positive entropy, none of which is a factor of a…

We provide two methods to construct zero-range processes with superlinear rates on ${\mathbb Z}^d$. In the first method these rates can grow very fast, if either the dynamics and the initial distribution are translation invariant or if only…

We analyze the entropy production in run-and-tumble models. After presenting the general formalism in the framework of the Fokker-Planck equations in one space dimension, we derive some known exact results in simple physical situations…

Over the last three decades entanglement entropy has been obtained for quantum fields propagating in genus zero topologies (Spheres). For scalar fields propagating in these topologies, it has been shown that the entanglement entropy scales…

In this paper, we give explicit conditions characterizing the F{\o}lner rank one $\mathbb{Z}^d$-actions that factor onto a finite odometer; those that factor onto an arbitrary, but specified $\mathbb{Z}^d$-odometer, and those that factor…
