The interplay between topology and interaction always plays an important role in condensed matter physics and induces many exotic quantum phases, while rare transition metal layered material (TMLM) has been proved to possess both. Here we…

We extend the definition of topological pressure to locally compact Hausdorff spaces, and we demonstrate a "variational principle" comparing the topological and measure theoretic pressures. Given a continuous $\mathbb{Z}_+^N$-action $T$…

We study metric versions of transitivity, mixing, and hypercyclicity for continuous maps, based on intersections of the form \( f^{n}(U)\cap B_{\delta}(V)\neq\varnothing. \) We introduce $\delta$-topological transitivity,…

In this note we study some properties of topological entropy for non-compact non-metrizable spaces. We prove that if a uniformly continuous self-map $f$ of a uniform space has topological shadowing property then the map $f$ has positive…

Structural glasses prepared by bulk quenching a liquid melt universally exhibit puzzling low-energy excitations commonly known as the ``two-level systems'' (TLSs). Recent studies indicate that ultrastable glassy films made by vapor…

Motivated by Sarnak's conjecture on M\"obius orthogonality, we investigate the general problem of orthogonality for a bounded sequence to topological models of characteristic classes of measure-preserving automorphisms. Our main observation…

We utilize Gaussian measure preserving systems to prove the existence and genericity of Lebesgue measure preserving transformations $T:[0,1]\rightarrow [0,1]$ which exhibit both mixing and rigidity behavior along families of asymptotically…

We demonstrate that two-dimensional atomic emitter arrays with subwavelength spacing constitute topologically protected quantum optical systems where the photon propagation is robust against large imperfections while losses associated with…

The topological entropy of a continuous self-map of a compact metric space can be defined in several distinct ways; when the space is not assumed compact, these definitions can lead to distinct invariants. The original, purely topological…

For minimal $\mathbb{Z}^{2}$-topological dynamical systems, we introduce a cube structure and a variation of the regionally proximal relation for $\mathbb{Z}^2$ actions, which allow us to characterize product systems and their factors. We…

Let $d\in\mathbb{Z}$ and $p_i$ be an integral polynomial with $p_i(0)=0,1\leq i\leq d$. It is shown that if $S$ is thickly syndetic in $\mathbb{Z}$, then $\{(m,n)\in\mathbb{Z}^2:m+p_i(n),m+p_2(n),\ldots,m+p_d(n)\in S\}$ is thickly syndetic…

We introduce and investigate a topological version of St\"ackel's 1907 characterization of finite sets, with the goal of obtaining an interesting notion that characterizes usual compactness (or a close variant of it). Define a $T_2$…

Topological properties of physical systems play a crucial role in our understanding of nature, yet their experimental determination remains elusive. We show that the mean helicity, a dynamical invariant in ideal flows, quantitatively…
