As periodic orbit theory works badly on computing the observable averages of dynamical systems with intermittency, we propose a scheme to cooperate with cycle expansion and perturbation theory so that we can deal with intermittent systems…
We prove strengthenings of the Birkhoff Ergodic Theorem for weakly mixing and strongly mixing measure preserving systems. We show that our pointwise theorem for weakly mixing systems is strictly stronger than the Wiener-Wintner Theorem. We…
The paper provides a systematic characterization of quantum ergodic and mixing channels in finite dimensions and a discussion of their structural properties. In particular, we discuss ergodicity in the general case where the fixed point of…
The celebrated Birkhoff Ergodic Theorem asserts that, for an ergodic map, orbits of almost every point equidistributes when sampled at integer times. This result was generalized by Bourgain to many natural sparse subsets of the integers. On…
The entropy is a measure of uncertainty that plays a central role in information theory. When the distribution of the data is unknown, an estimate of the entropy needs be obtained from the data sample itself. We propose a semi-parametric…
In this work we prove sufficient conditions for the Glauber dynamics corresponding to a sequence of (non-product) measures on finite product spaces to be rapidly mixing, i.e. that the mixing time with respect to the total variation distance…
We prove that a stationary max--infinitely divisible process is mixing (ergodic) iff its dependence function converges to 0 (is Cesaro summable to 0). These criteria are applied to some classes of max--infinitely divisible processes.
We construct a rank one infinite measure preserving transformation $T$ such that for all sequences of nonzero integers $\{k_{1},..., k_{r}\}$, $T^{k_{1}}\times...\times T^{k_{r}}$ is ergodic.
An improved volume-weighted probability measure for eternal inflation is proposed. For the models studied in this paper it leads to simple and intuitively expected gauge-invariant results.
Given a uniformly expanding transitive Markov interval map, we show that within the set of ergodic measures the set of nonadapted ergodic measures is residual in with respect to the topology induced by the $\overline{d}$-metric. This set of…
We obtain results on mixing for a large class of (not necessarily Markov) infinite measure semiflows and flows. Erickson proved, amongst other things, a strong renewal theorem in the corresponding i.i.d. setting. Using operator renewal…
The microscopic approach to the description of the phase behaviour and critical phenomena in binary fluid mixtures is proposed. It is based on the method of collective variables with a reference system. The physical nature of the order…
We consider an inverse problem for the linear one-dimensional wave equation with variable coefficients consisting in determining an unknown source term from a boundary observation. A method to obtain approximations of this inverse problem…
Ergodic optimization is the study of problems relating to maximizing orbits, maximizing invariant measures and maximum ergodic averages. An orbit of a dynamical system is called f-maximizing if the time average of the real-valued function f…
Given an ergodic probability measure preserving dynamical system $\G\acts (X,\mu)$, where $\G$ is a finitely generated countable group, we show that the asymptotic growth of the number of finite models for the dynamics, in the sense of…
We construct a natural invariant measure concentrated on the set of square-free numbers, and invariant under the shift. We prove that the corresponding dynamical system is isomorphic to a translation on a compact, Abelian group. This…
We study a random dynamical system such that one transformation is randomly selected from a family of transformations and then applied on each iteration. For such random dynamical systems, we consider estimates of absolutely continuous…
We prove a model theorem for factor maps between ergodic, infinite measure-preserving systems.
The ergodic hypothesis outgrew from the ancient conception of motion as periodic or quasi periodic. It did cause a revision of our views of motion, particularly through Boltzmann and Poincar\'e: we discuss how Boltmann's conception of…
We study compact hyperbolic surfaces and multiplication observables, establishing a large-scale analogue of Zelditch's quantum mixing theorem with hypotheses that hold for both arithmetic and Weil--Petersson random surfaces of large genus.…
