Let $G$ be a discrete, countably infinite group and $H$ a subgroup of $G$. If $H$ acts continuously on a compact metric space $X$, then we can induce a continuous action of $G$ on $\prod_{H\backslash G}X$ where $H\backslash G$ is the…

We will consider various definitions of topological entropy for multivalued nonautonomous dynamical systems in compact Hausdorff spaces. Some of them can deal with arbitrary multivalued maps, i.e. when no restrictions are imposed on them.…

We introduce a functor which associates to every measure preserving system (X,B,\mu,T) a topological system (C_2(\mu),\tilde{T}) defined on the space of 2-fold couplings of \mu, called the topological lens of T. We show that often the…

We show that for every topological dynamical system with the approximate product property, zero topological entropy is equivalent to unique ergodicity. Equivalence of minimality is also proved under a slightly stronger condition. Moreover,…

We consider a natural Hamiltonian system with two degrees of freedom and Hamiltonian $H=\|p\|^2/2+V(q)$. The configuration space $M$ is a closed surface (for noncompact $M$ certain conditions at infinity are required). It is well known that…

It is well known that the entropy $H(X)$ of a finite random variable is always greater or equal to the entropy $H(f(X))$ of a function $f$ of $X$, with equality if and only if $f$ is one-to-one. In this paper, we give tights bounds on…

Let $G$ be an infinite countable discrete amenable group. For any $G$-action on a compact metric space $(X,\rho)$, it turns out that if the action has positive topological entropy, then for any sequence $\{s_i\}_{i=1}^{+\infty}$ with…

We study the directional entropy of the dynamical system associated to a $\Z^2$ configuration in a finite alphabet. We show that under local assumptions on the complexity, either every direction has zero topological entropy or some…

A topology on a nonempty set $X$ specifies a natural subset of $\mathcal{P}(X)$. By identifying $\mathcal{P}(\mathcal{P}(X))$ with the totally disconnected compact Hausdorff space $2^{\mathcal{P}(X)}$, the lattice $Top(X)$ of all topologies…

Recently, Buzzi showed in the compact case that the entropy map $f\rightarrow$ $h_{top}(f)$ is lower semi-continuous for all piecewise affine surface homeomorphisms. We prove that topological entropy for the Lozi maps can jump from zero to…

We prove a general solvable subgroup theorem in terms of length functions. As applications, we obtain a solvable subgroup theorem in dynamical systems: any solvable group of finite Hirsch length acting on a smooth manifold with uniformly…

Let X be a complex projective manifold and f a dominating rational map from X onto X. We show that the topological entropy h(f) of f is bounded from above by the logarithm of its maximal dynamical degree.

In this paper we characterize tame dynamical systems and functions in terms of eventual non-sensitivity and eventual fragmentability. As a notable application we obtain a neat characterization of tame subshifts $X \subset \{0,1\}^{\mathbb…

We construct suitable metrics for two classes of topological dynamical systems (linear maps on the torus and non-invertible expansive maps on compact spaces) in order to get a lower bound for topological entropy in terms of the resulting…

We define the topological multiplicity of an invertible topological system $(X,T)$ as the minimal number $k$ of real continuous functions $f_1,\cdots, f_k$ such that the functions $f_i\circ T^n$, $n\in\mathbb Z$, $1\leq i\leq k,$ span a…

In this paper, we extend the concept of generalized entropy to uniform spaces, allowing computations beyond metrizable settings. We apply this to parabolic dynamics - systems with a unique fixed point uniformly attracting all compact…

There are a variety of results in the literature proving forms of computability for topological entropy and pressure on subshifts. In this work, we prove two quite general results, showing that topological pressure is always computable from…

We generalize the definition of topological entropy due to Adler, Konheim, and McAndrew \cite{AKM} to set-valued functions from a closed subset $A$ of the interval to closed subsets of the interval. We view these set-valued functions, via…

We consider the meta-equilibrium state of a composite system made up of independent subsystems satisfying the additive form of external constraints, as recently discussed by Abe [Phys. Rev. E {\bf 63}, 061105 (2001)]. We derive the additive…

If $\mathcal P$ is a family of filters over some set $I$, a topological space $X$ is \emph{sequencewise $\mathcal P$-\brfrt compact} if, for every $I$-indexed sequence of elements of $X$, there is $F \in \mathcal P$ such that the sequence…
