The $f$ adjacency matrix is a type of edge-weighted adjacency matrix, whose weight of an edge $ij$ is $f(d_i,d_j)$, where $f$ is a real symmetric function and $d_i,d_j$ are the degrees of vertex $i$ and vertex $j$. The $f$-spectral radius…

This paper is a survey of various proofs of the so called {\em fundamental theorem of Markov chains}: every ergodic Markov chain has a unique positive stationary distribution and the chain attains this distribution in the limit independent…

Let X be an infinite, compact, metrizable space of finite covering dimension and h a minimal homeomorphism of X. We prove that the crossed product of C(X) by h absorbs the Jiang-Su algebra tensorially and has finite nuclear dimension. As a…

We prove that the Birkhoff pointwise ergodic theorem and the Oseledets multiplicative ergodic theorem hold for every flat surface in almost every direction. The proofs rely on the strong law of large numbers, and on recent rigidity results…

We prove that for certain partially hyperbolic skew-products, non-uniform hyperbolicity along the leaves implies existence of a finite number of ergodic absolutely continuous invariant probability measures which describe the asymptotics of…

We introduce a generalization of the zig-zag product of regular digraphs (directed graphs), which allows us to construct regular digraphs with m ore flexible choices of the degrees. In our generalization, we can control the connectivity of…

Consider a square matrix with independent and identically distributed entries of zero mean and unit variance. It is well known that if the entries have a finite fourth moment, then, in high dimension, with high probability, the spectral…

We define and study geometric versions of the Benoist limit cone and matrix joint spectrum, which we call the translation cone and the joint translation spectrum, respectively. These new notions allow us to generalize the study of…

We present the Tetrahedral Compactness Theorem which states that sequences of Riemannian manifolds with a uniform upper bound on volume and diameter that satisfy a uniform tetrahedral property have a subsequence which converges in the…

The Spectral Edges Conjecture is a well-known and widely believed conjecture in the theory of discrete periodic operators. It states that the extrema of the dispersion relation are isolated, non-degenerate, and occur in a single band. We…

We study the asymptotic properties of the trajectories of a discrete-time random dynamical system in an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. Under some natural assumptions on the model, we establish a multiplica-tive ergodic theorem with an…

We present a complete study of the ergodic theorem for the difficult problem of non-linear wave propagations through cylindrical measures /path integrals and the famous Ruelle-Amrein-Geogerscu-Enss (R.A.G.E.) theorem on the caracterization…

We establish weak-type $(1,1)$ bounds for the maximal function associated with ergodic averaging operators modeled on a wide class of thin deterministic sets $B$. As a corollary we obtain the corresponding pointwise convergence result on…

A unified approach to the determination of eigenvalues and eigenvectors of specific matrices associated with directed graphs is presented. Matrices studied include the distance matrix, distance Laplacian, and distance signless Laplacian, in…

Let $f: \CN \rightarrow \C $ be a reduced polynomial map, with $D=f^{-1}(0)$, $\U=\CN \setminus D$ and boundary manifold $M=\partial \U$. Assume that $f$ is transversal at infinity and $D$ has only isolated singularities. Then the only…

The classical spectral theorem completely describes self-adjoint operators on finite dimensional inner product vector spaces as linear combinations of orthogonal projections onto pairwise orthogonal subspaces. We prove a similar theorem for…

We prove quenched versions of a central limit theorem, a large deviations principle as well as a local central limit theorem for expanding on average cocycles. This is achieved by building an appropriate modification of the spectral method…

We derive results on the distribution of directions of saddle connections on translation surfaces using only the Birkhoff ergodic theorem applied to the geodesic flow on the moduli space of translation surfaces. Our techniques, together…

We investigate the class of geodesic metric discs satisfying a uniform quadratic isoperimetric inequality and uniform bounds on the length of the boundary circle. We show that the closure of this class as a subset of Gromov-Hausdorff space…

In this paper, several fundamental facts, especially the existence and uniqueness of an absolutely continuous ergodic measure with an exponential mixing rate, are derived for smooth expanding circle maps. Although the results are classical,…
