We establish a dichotomy for the rate of the decay of the Ces\`aro averages of correlations of sufficiently regular functions for typical interval exchange transformations (IET) which are not rigid rotations (for which weak mixing had been…
We present the first explicit example of an interval exchange transformation with flips (FIET) possessing three distinct invariant ergodic measures. The proof is based on a generalization of M. Keane's method, using the Rauzy induction…
We study an interval exchange transformation of [0,1] formed by cutting the interval at the points 1/n and reversing the order of the intervals. We find that the transformation is periodic away from a Cantor set of Hausdorff dimension zero.…
We study a generalization Rec_d of the group IET=Rec_1 of interval exchange transformations in every dimension d>0, called the rectangle exchange transformations group. The subset of restricted rotations in IET is a generating subset and we…
In this article, we deal with the uniform effective disjunction property and the uniform effective interpolation property, which are weaker versions of the classical effective disjunction property and the effective interpolation property.\\…
The family of pairwise independently determined (PID) systems, i.e. those for which the independent joining is the only self joining with independent 2-marginals, is a class of systems for which the long standing open question by Rokhlin,…
Extensive amenability is a property of group actions which has recently been used as a tool to prove amenability of groups. We study this property and prove that it is preserved under a very general construction of semidirect products. As…
We prove ergodicity of a class of infinite measure preserving systems, called skew-products. More precisely, we consider systems of the form \[ {T_f}:{[0, 1) \times \mathbb{R}}\to{[0, 1) \times \mathbb{R}},\quad {T_f(x, t)}:={(T(x),…
Almost uniform version of noncommutative Wiener-Wintner ergodic theorem and its extension to Besicovitch weights are proved.
We show that for odd-valued piecewise-constant skew products over a certain two parameter family of interval exchanges, the skew product is ergodic for a full-measure choice of parameters.
We show that for any positive integer $N$, there are only finitely many holomorphic eta quotients of level $N$, none of which is a product of two holomorphic eta quotients other than 1 and itself. This result is an analog of Zagier's…
Joinings are fundamental global objects in ergodic theory, yet in compact metric models one naturally observes only finite orbit-distance patterns. We bridge this gap by introducing multi-particle distance arrays, which sample finite orbit…
Denote by $G$ the group of interval exchange transformations (IETs) on the unit interval. Let $G_{per}\subset G$ be the subgroup generated by torsion elements in $G$ (periodic IETs), and let $G_{rot}\subset G$ be the subset of 2-IETs…
Answering Vershik's question we show that quasi-similarity does not conserve the entropy, proving quasi-similarity of all Bernoulli actions of a countable infinite group. We prove also the following generalization of Pinsker's theorem: the…
We consider smooth area-preserving flows (also known as locally Hamiltonian flows) on surfaces of genus $g\geq 1$ and study ergodic integrals of smooth observables along the flow trajectories. We show that these integrals display a…
We show that a dissipative, ergodic measure preserving transformation of a sigma-finite, non-atomic measure space always has many non-proportional, absolutely continuous, invariant measures and is ergodic with respect to each one of these.
Belinskaya's theorem states that given an ergodic measure-preserving transformation, any other transformation with the same orbits and an $\mathrm{L}^1$ cocycle must be flip-conjugate to it. Our main result shows that this theorem is…
In this paper we give an answer to Furstenberg's problem on topological disjointness. Namely, we show that a transitive system $(X,T)$ is disjoint from all minimal systems if and only if $(X,T)$ is weakly mixing and there is some countable…
We give two asymptotic results for the empirical distance covariance on separable metric spaces without any iid assumption on the samples. In particular, we show the almost sure convergence of the empirical distance covariance for any…
Although piecewise isometries (PWIs) are higher dimensional generalizations of one dimensional interval exchange transformations (IETs), their generic dynamical properties seem to be quite different. In this paper we consider embeddings of…
