We investigate ergodic theory of Poisson suspensions. In the process, we establish close connections between finite and infinite measure preserving ergodic theory. Poisson suspensions thus provide a new approach to infinite measure…
We consider T(x), a tensor of arbitrary rank that is symmetric in all of its indices and conserved in the sense that the divergence on any one index vanishes. Our conjecture is that all integral moments of this tensor will vanish if the…
We show that every invertible strong mixing transformation on a Lebesgue space has strictly over-recurrent sets. Also, we give an explicit procedure for constructing strong mixing transformations with no under-recurrent sets. This answers…
We define centrally large subalgebras of simple unital C*-algebras, strengthening the definition of large subalgebras in previous work. We prove that if A is any infinite dimensional simple separable unital C*-algebra which contains a…
Compared to the entrywise transforms which preserve positive semidefiniteness, those leaving invariant the inertia of symmetric matrices reveal a surprising rigidity. We first obtain the classification of negativity preservers by combining…
We build a Shannon orbit equivalence between the universal odometer and a variety of rank-one systems. This is done in a unified manner, using what we call flexible classes of rank-one transformations. Our main result is that every flexible…
We show that a certain type of quasi finite, conservative, ergodic, measure preserving transformation always has a maximal zero entropy factor, generated by predictable sets. We also construct a conservative, ergodic, measure preserving…
We pursue the study of $\mathrm L^1$ full groups of graphings and of the closures of their derived groups, which we call derived $\mathrm L^1$ full groups. Our main result shows that aperiodic probability measure-preserving actions of…
We present mixing ergodic automorphisms of a space with sigma-finite measure whose symmetric tensor squares have simple spectra. This property is of interest in connection with dynamical spectral problems of A.N. Kolmogorov and V.A.…
We study alternating minimization for matrix completion in the simplest possible setting: completing a rank-one matrix from a revealed subset of the entries. We bound the asymptotic convergence rate by the variational characterization of…
Tensor completion is a natural higher-order generalization of matrix completion where the goal is to recover a low-rank tensor from sparse observations of its entries. Existing algorithms are either heuristic without provable guarantees,…
We study the rich behavior of ergodicity and conservativity of Cartesian products of infinite measure preserving transformations. A class of transformations is constructed such that for any subset $R\subset \mathbb Q\cap (0,1)$ there exists…
In the present paper we prove the integrability (in the sense of existence of formal symmetry of infinite rank) for a class of block-triangular inhomogeneous extensions of (1+1)-dimensional integrable evolution systems. An important…
We clarify quasi-Frobenius configurations of finite Morley rank. 1. We remove one assumption in an identification theorem by Zamour while simplifying the proof. 2. We show that a strongly embedded quasi-Frobenius configuration of odd type,…
We introduce the notions of over- and under-independence for weakly mixing and (free) ergodic measure preserving actions and establish new results which complement and extend the theorems obtained in [BoFW] and [A]. Here is a sample of…
In this article, we pay attention to transitive dynamical systems having the shadowing property and the entropy functions are upper semicontinuous. As for these dynamical systems, when we consider ergodic optimization restricted on the…
We obtain sufficient criteria for endomorphisms of torsion-free nilpotent groups of finite rank to be automorphisms, by considering the induced maps on the torsion-free abelianisation and the centre. Whilst these results are known in the…
Mean dimension is a topological invariant for dynamical systems that is meaningful for systems with infinite dimension and infinite entropy. Given a $\mathbb{Z}^k$-action on a compact metric space $X$, we study the following three problems…
For every natural $n>1$, there is an operator $T$ of dynamical origin such that its tensor power $T^{\otimes n}$ has singular spectrum, and $T^{\otimes (n+1)}$ has absolutely continuous one. For a set $D$ of positive measure there are…
We prove that any ergodic measure-preserving action of an irreducible lattice in a semisimple group, with finite center and each simple factor having rank at least two, either has finite orbits or has finite stabilizers. The same dichotomy…
