We study the dynamics of a simple random walk on subshifts defined by the beta transformation and apply it to find concrete formulae for the Hausdorff dimension of digit frequency sets for $\beta>1$ that solves $\beta^{m+1}-\beta^m-1=0$…

Let (R,m,k) be an excellent, local, normal ring of characteristic p with a perfect residue field and dim R=d. Let M be a finitely generated R-module. We show that there exists a real number beta(M) such that lambda(M/I^[q]M) = e_{HK}(M) q^d…

We exhibit an isomorphism of associative algebras between the $\operatorname{Ext}$-algebra $\operatorname{Ext}_\Lambda^\ast(\Delta,\Delta)$ of standard modules over the dual extension algebra $\Lambda$ of two directed algebras $B$ and $A$…

Unanticipated connections between different fragments of lambda calculus and different families of embedded graphs (a.k.a. "maps") motivate the problem of enumerating $\beta$-normal linear lambda terms. In this brief note, it is shown (by…

We study $\alpha$-adic expansions of numbers in an extension field, that is to say, left infinite representations of numbers in the positional numeration system with the base $\alpha$, where $\alpha$ is an algebraic conjugate of a Pisot…

We define a class of quantum systems called regular quantum graphs. Although their dynamics is chaotic in the classical limit with positive topological entropy, the spectrum of regular quantum graphs is explicitly computable analytically…

Let $I_1=[a_0,a_1),\ldots,I_{k}= [a_{k-1},a_k)$ be a partition of the interval $I=[0,1)$ into $k$ subintervals. Let $f:I\to I$ be a map such that each restriction $f|_{I_i}$ is an increasing Lipschitz contraction. We prove that any $f$…

The dynamical degree $\lambda(f)$ of a birational transformation $f$ measures the exponential growth rate of the degree of the formulae that define the $n$-th iterate of $f$. We study the set of all dynamical degrees of all birational…

By a classical result of Gauss and Kuzmin, the continued fraction expansion of a ``random'' real number contains each digit $a\in\mathbb{N}$ with asymptotic frequency $\log_2(1+1/(a(a+2)))$. We generalize this result in two directions:…

The Loewner equation encrypts a growing simple curve in the plane into a real-valued driving function. We show that if the driving function $\lambda$ is in $C^{\beta}$ with $\beta>2$ (or real analytic) then the Loewner curve is in $C^{\beta…

Let $-1<\lambda<1$ and $f:[0,1)\to\mathbb{R}$ be a piecewise $\lambda$-affine map, that is, there exist points $0=c_0<c_1<\cdots <c_{n-1}<c_n=1$ and real numbers $b_1,\ldots,b_n$ such that $f(x)=\lambda x+b_i$ for every $x\in…

We consider the asymptotic expansion of the functional series \[S_{\mu}^\pm(a;\lambda)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{(\pm 1)^n e^{-\lambda n}}{(n^2+a^2)^\mu}\] for $\lambda>0$ and $\mu\geq0$ as $|a|\to \infty$ in the sector $|\arg\,a|<\pi/2$. The…

The dynamics of symbolic systems, such as multidimensional subshifts of finite type or cellular automata, are known to be closely related to computability theory. In particular, the appropriate tools to describe and classify topological…

In this paper, we extend the $\beta$-CNMF to two dimensions and derive exact multiplicative updates for its factors. The new updates generalize and correct the nonnegative matrix factor deconvolution previously proposed by Schmidt and…

We consider the second Ostrogradsky expansion from the number theory, probability theory, dynamical systems and fractal geometry points of view, and establish several new phenomena connected with this expansion. First of all we prove the…

This paper extends those of Glendinning and Sidorov [3] and of Hare and Sidorov [6] from the case of the doubling map to the more general $\beta$-transformation. Let $\beta \in (1,2)$ and consider the $\beta$-transformation…

Filinski constructed a symmetric lambda-calculus consisting of expressions and continuations which are symmetric, and functions which have duality. In his calculus, functions can be encoded to expressions and continuations using primitive…

We consider an analogue of Nakada's $\alpha$-continued fraction transformation in the setting of continued fractions with odd partial quotients. More precisely, given $\alpha \in [\frac{1}{2}(\sqrt{5}-1),\frac{1}{2}(\sqrt{5}+1)]$, we show…

Some basic properties of the ring of integers $\mathbb{Z}$ are extended to entire rings. In particular, arithmetic in entire principal rings is very similar than arithmetic in the ring of integers $\mathbb{Z}$. These arithmetic properties…

Let T be an algebraically bounded theory. We consider the $L(\bar\delta)$-expansions of T by a tuple $\bar \delta$ of derivations (which may be commuting or not). We investigate the model completion of either of the above theories, whose…
