We study nontrivial entropy invariants in the class of parabolic flows on homogeneous spaces, quasi-unipotent flows. We show that topological complexity (ie, slow entropy) can be computed directly from the Jordan block structure of the…
An asymptotic expansion is established for time averages of translation flows on flat surfaces. This result, which extends earlier work of A.Zorich and G.Forni, yields limit theorems for translation flows. The argument, close in spirit to…
For a dynamical system satisfying the approximate product property and asymptotically entropy expansiveness, we characterize a delicate structrue of the space of invariant measures: The ergodic measures of intermediate entropies and…
A collection of integer sequences is jointly ergodic if for every ergodic measure preserving system the multiple ergodic averages, with iterates given by this collection of sequences, converge in the mean to the product of the integrals. We…
The concept of a uniform set is introduced for an ergodic, measure-preserving transformation on a non-atomic, infinite Lebesgue space. The uniform sets exist as much as they generate the underlying $\sigma$-algebra. This leads to the result…
We study the dynamics of the Teichmuller flow in the moduli space of Abelian differentials (and more generally, its restriction to any connected component of a stratum). We show that the (Masur-Veech) absolutely continuous invariant…
It is known that if each point $x$ of a dynamical system is generic for some invariant measure $\mu_x$, then there is a strong connection between certain ergodic and topological properties of that system. In particular, if the acting group…
Quantum ergodicity asserts that almost all infinite sequences of eigenstates of a quantized ergodic system are equidistributed in the phase space. On the other hand, there are might exist exceptional sequences which converge to different…
We establish results with an arithmetic flavor that generalize the polynomial multidimensional Szemeredi theorem and related multiple recurrence and convergence results in ergodic theory. For instance, we show that in all these statements…
We study the ergodic properties of compositions of interval exchange transformations and rotations. We show that for any interval exchange transformation T, there is a full measure set of \alpha in [0, 1) so that T composed with R_{\alpha}…
A subshift with linear block complexity has at most countably many ergodic measures, and we continue of the study of the relation between such complexity and the invariant measures. By constructing minimal subshifts whose block complexity…
We present a method, based on commutator methods, for the spectral analysis of uniquely ergodic dynamical systems. When applicable, it leads to the absolute continuity of the spectrum of the corresponding unitary operators. As an…
Given an irreducible subshift of finite type X, a subshift Y, a factor map \pi : X \to Y, and an ergodic invariant measure \nu on Y, there can exist more than one ergodic measure on X which projects to \nu and has maximal entropy among all…
We study uniquely ergodic dynamical systems over locally compact, sigma-compact Abelian groups. We characterize uniform convergence in Wiener/Wintner type ergodic theorems in terms of continuity of the limit. Our results generalize and…
Let $(X, \mathcal{B},\mu,T)$ be an ergodic measure preserving system, $A \in \mathcal{B}$ and $\epsilon>0$. We study the largeness of sets of the form \begin{equation*} \begin{split} S = \left\{ n\in\mathbb{N}\colon\mu(A\cap…
We examine high energy eigenfunctions for the Dirichlet Laplacian on domains where the billiard flow exhibits mixed dynamical behavior. (More generally, we consider semiclassical Schrodinger operators with mixed assumptions on the…
For a given ergodic measure preserving transformation T of a standard measure space each finite labelled partition defines an ergodic stationary process. There is a complete metric on the space of partitions which is separable. Various…
The spectra of parallel flows (that is, flows governed by first-order differential operators parallel to one direction) are investigated, on both $L^2$ spaces and weighted-$L^2$ spaces. As a consequence, an example of a flow admitting a…
Subshifts of deterministic substitutions are ubiquitous objects in dynamical systems and aperiodic order (the mathematical theory of quasicrystals). Two of their most striking features are that they have low complexity (zero topological…
We show that any ergodic measure for a piecewise monotonic map with positive metric entropy is approximated by periodic measures in the weak-* sense. This partially answers Hofbauer-Raith's conjecture.
