We prove that every topologically transitive shift of finite type in one dimension is topologically conjugate to a subshift arising from a primitive random substitution on a finite alphabet. As a result, we show that the set of values of…
We prove that Sarnak's conjecture holds for any infinite measure symbolic rank-one map. We further extended Bourgain-Sarnak's result, which says that the M\"{o}bius function is a good weight for the ergodic theorem, to maps acting on…
We describe the $G$-equivariant Grothendieck ring of a regular compactification $X$ of an adjoint symmetric space $G/H$ of minimal rank. This extends the results of Brion and Joshua for the equivariant Chow ring of wonderful symmetric…
Subtracting a critical rank-one approximation from a matrix always results in a matrix with a lower rank. This is not true for tensors in general. Motivated by this, we ask the question: what is the closure of the set of those tensors for…
Let $(X,\mu)$ be a standard probability space. An automorphism $T$ of $(X,\mu)$ has the weak Pinsker property if for every $\varepsilon > 0$ it has a splitting into a direct product of a Bernoulli shift and an automorphism of entropy less…
In this note we revisit a less known symmetrization method for functions with respect to a topological group $G$, which we call $G$-averaging. We note that, although quite non-technical in nature, this method yields $G$-invariant minimizers…
We develop a Thermodynamic Formalism for bounded continuous potentials defined on the sequence space $X\equiv E^{\mathbb{N}}$, where $E$ is a general Borel standard space. In particular, we introduce meaningful concepts of entropy and…
A measure preserving action of a countably infinite group \Gamma is called totally ergodic if every infinite subgroup of \Gamma acts ergodically. For example, all mixing and mildly mixing actions are totally ergodic. This note shows that if…
In order theory, a rank function measures the vertical "level" of a poset element. It is an integer-valued function on a poset which increments with the covering relation, and is only available on a graded poset. Defining a vertical measure…
Many years ago B.S. Pitskel observed that the metric entropy of the shift transformation in the sample space of a stationary random process $X=\{X_n,\,n\in \mathbb Z\}$ with a countable number of states is equal to the conditional entropy…
In this paper, we prove that ergodic point processes with moments of all orders, driven by particular infinite measure preserving transformations, have to be a superposition of shifted Poisson processes. This rigidity result has a lot of…
We use a variation on Mason's $\alpha$-function as a pre-dimension function to construct a not one-based $\omega$-stable plane $P$ (i.e. a simple rank $3$ matroid) which does not admit an algebraic representation (in the sense of matroid…
We prove that a class of infinite measure preserving transformations, satisfying a "strong" weak mixing condition, generates all rigidity sequences of all conservative ergodic invertible measure preserving transformations defined on a…
We extend F.Pastjin's construction of uniform decomposable chains of finite rank to those of rank 'finite over a limit' and investigate infinite products and unions of such chains. We derive an extension of Pastjin's characterisation to…
We construct a lower bound of the tensor rank for a new class of tensors, which we call persistent tensors. We present three specific families of persistent tensors, of which the lower bound is tight. We show that there is a chain of…
The rankable and compressible sets have been studied for more than a quarter of a century, ever since Allender [1] and Goldberg and Sipser [6] introduced the formal study of polynomial-time ranking. Yet even after all that time, whether the…
There is a countable metrizable group acting continuously on the space of rationals in such a way that the only equivariant compactification of the space is a singleton. This is obtained by a recursive application of a construction due to…
We define new norms for symmetric tensors over ordered normed spaces; these norms are defined by considering linear combinations of tensor products or powers of positive elements only. Relations between the different norms are studied. The…
This text is addressed to students. It is a short story about some problems in ergodic theory, both related and independent. We discuss the factorization of transformations into the product of three involutions; Furstenberg's theorem on…
In this paper, we determine the relative rank of the semigroup OP(X) of all orientation-preserving transformations on infinite chains modulo the semigroup O(X) of all order-preserving transformations.
