For self-similar sets, there are two important separation properties: the open set condition and the weak separation condition introduced by Zerner, which may be replaced by the formally stronger finite type property of Ngai and Wang. We…

We provide a new proof of ``most" cases of the polynomial Wiener-Wintner theorem for $\sigma$-finite spaces, using hard-analytic methods. Specifically, we prove that whenever $(X,\mu,T)$ is a $\sigma$-finite measure-preserving system, and…

The Hales-Jewett theorem asserts that for every r and every k there exists n such that every r-colouring of the n-dimensional grid {1,...,k}^n contains a combinatorial line. This result is a generalization of van der Waerden's theorem, and…

Let $K$ be a planar self-affine set. Assuming a weak domination condition on the matrix parts, we prove for all backward Furstenberg directions $V$ that $$\max_{E\in\operatorname{Tan}(K)} \max_{x\in \pi_{V^\bot}(E)} \operatorname{dim_H}…

Let $\pi: (X,T)\rightarrow (Y,T)$ be a factor map of topological dynamics and $d\in {\mathbb {N}}$. $(Y,T)$ is said to be a $d$-step topological characteristic factor if there exists a dense $G_\delta$ set $X_0$ of $X$ such that for each…

Exploiting a construction of rigidity sequences for weakly mixing dynamical systems by Fayad and Thouvenot, we show that for every integers $p_{1},\dots,p_{r}$ there exists a continuous probability measure $\mu $ on the unit circle…

We construct examples of minimal and uniquely ergodic systems realizing all possible behaviors in the interplay of measurable and topological nilfactors. To build such examples, we adapt an idea that stems from Furstenberg's construction of…

We develop a microscopic theory of dynamic structure factor to describe the Bogoliubov-Anderson-Goldstone phonon mode and its damping rate in a strongly interacting Fermi gas at finite temperature. It is based on a density functional…

Let $F$ be a Bedford-McMullen carpet defined by independent exponents. We prove that $\overline{\dim}_B (\ell \cap F) \leq \max \lbrace \dim^* F -1,0 \rbrace$ for all lines $\ell$ not parallel to the principal axes, where $\dim^*$ is…

This paper is a study of Glasner's definition of quasi-factors in the setting of infinite-measure preserving system. The existence of a system with zero Krengel entropy and a quasi-factor with positive entropy is obtained. On the other…

Bergelson et al. observed that Furstenberg's proof of Szemeredi's theorem provides a positive lower bound on the density of arithmetic progressions in sets of positive density in the integers. Namely, for every $\delta\in(0,1]$ and every…

This paper establishes a far-reaching connection between the Finite-Difference Time-Domain method (FDTD) and the theory of dissipative systems. The FDTD equations for a rectangular region are written as a dynamical system having the…

We use recent advances in the theory of Furstenberg sets to prove new incidence results of Szemer\'edi--Trotter strength for $\delta$-discretized structures with Cartesian product flavor. We use these results to make progress on a number of…

In this paper it is shown that every non-periodic ergodic system has two topologically weakly mixing, fully supported models: one is non-minimal but has a dense set of minimal points; and the other one is proximal. Also for independent…

The aim of this paper is to develop tractable large deviation approximations for the empirical measure of a small noise diffusion. The starting point is the Freidlin-Wentzell theory, which shows how to approximate via a large deviation…

Let $A(x): =(A_{i, j}(x))$ be a continuous function defined on some subshift of $\Omega:= \{0,1, \cdots, m-1\}^\mathbb{N}$, taking $d\times d$ non-negative matrices as values and let $\nu$ be an ergodic $\sigma$-invariant measure on the…

We present a theoretical investigation of the dynamic density structure factor of a strongly interacting Fermi gas near a Feshbach resonance at finite temperature. The study is based on a gauge invariant linear response theory. The theory…

Motivated by the classical results by Halmos and Rokhlin on the genericity of weakly but not strongly mixing transformations and the Furstenberg tower construction, we show that weakly but not strongly mixing extensions on a fixed product…

A Thomas-Fermi-Weizsaecker type theory is constructed, by means of which we are able to give a relatively simple proof of the stability of relativistic matter. Our procedure has the advantage over previous ones in that the critical value of…

Given a tracial von Neumann algebra $(M,\tau)$, we prove that a state preserving $M$-bimodular ucp map between two stationary W$^*$-extensions of $(M,\tau)$ preserves the Furstenberg entropy if and only if it induces an isomorphism between…
