Recently, Einsiedler and the authors provided a bound in terms of escape of mass for the amount by which upper-semicontinuity for metric entropy fails for diagonal flows on homogeneous spaces $\Gamma\backslash G$, where $G$ is any connected…
Let $X = G/\Gamma$, where $G$ is a Lie group and $\Gamma$ is a uniform lattice in $G$, and let $O$ be an open subset of $X$. We give an upper estimate for the Hausdorff dimension of the set of points whose trajectories escape $O$ on average…
We study the relation between measure theoretic entropy and escape of mass for the case of a singular diagonal flow on the moduli space of three-dimensional unimodular lattices.
We study the relation between metric entropy and escape of mass for the Hilbert modular spaces with the action of a diagonal element.
In this paper we study ergodic theory of countable Markov shifts. These are dynamical systems defined over non-compact spaces. Our main result relates the escape of mass, the measure theoretic entropy, and the entropy at infinity of the…
Let $X = G/\Gamma$, where $G$ is a Lie group and $\Gamma$ is a lattice in $G$, and let $U$ be a subset of $X$ whose complement is compact. We use the exponential mixing results for diagonalizable flows on $X$ to give upper estimates for the…
Let $X = G/\Gamma$, where $G$ is a Lie group and $\Gamma$ is a lattice in $G$, let $O$ be an open subset of $X$, and let $F = \{g_t: t\ge 0\}$ be a one-parameter subsemigroup of $G$. Consider the set of points in $X$ whose $F$-orbit misses…
For any diagonal element $a$ with two eigenvalues, we construct a sequence of $a$-invariant probability measures on the space of unimodular lattices with high entropy but converging to the zero measure. This extends the result of Kadyrov…
Let L be a Lie group and Lambda a lattice in L. Suppose G is a non-compact simple Lie group realized as a Lie subgroup of L, and the image of G on L/Lambda is dense. Let c be a diagonalizable element of G not contained in a compact…
Building on the work of Cassels we prove the existence of infinite families of compact orbits of the diagonal group in the space of lattices which accumulate only on the divergent orbit of the standard lattice. As a consequence, we prove…
In this paper we study the ergodic theory of the geodesic flow on negatively curved geometrically finite manifolds. We prove that the measure theoretic entropy is upper semicontinuous when there is no loss of mass. In case we are losing…
Let $G$ be a Lie group, $\Gamma\subset G$ a discrete subgroup, $X=G/\Gamma$, and $f$ an affine map from $X$ to itself. We give conditions on a submanifold $Z$ of $X$ guaranteeing that the set of points $x\in X$ with $f$-trajectories…
We show that in positive characteristic the homogeneous probability measure supported on a periodic orbit of the diagonal group in the space of 2-lattices, when varied along rays of Hecke trees, may behave in sharp contrast to the zero…
We prove the upper semicontinuity of the measure theoretic entropy for the geodesic flow on complete Riemannian manifolds without focal points and bounded sectional curvature. We then study the relationship between the escape of mass…
In this paper, we introduce a new entropy-like invariant, named Hausdorff metric entropy, for finitely generated semigroups acting on compact metric spaces from a set-valued view and study its properties. We establish the relation between…
Let $G$ be a large group acting on a biregular tree $T$ and $\Gamma \leq G$ a geometrically finite lattice. In an earlier work, the authors classified orbit closures of the action of the horospherical subgroups on $G/\Gamma$. In this…
Let G=SL(n,R) with n>5. We construct examples of lattices Gamma of G, subgroup A of the diagonal group and points x in G/Gamma such that the closure of the orbit Ax is not homogeneous but does not factors through the action of a…
We consider the dynamical system given by a diagonalizable element $a$ of a closed linear unimodular algebraic subgroup $G$ of the special linear group over the $p$-adic numbers acting by translation on a finite volume quotient $X$.…
A local homeomorphism between open subsets of a locally compact Hausdorff space induces dynamical systems with a wide range of applications, including in C*-algebras. In this paper, we introduce the concepts of nonwandering and wandering…
Generalising a construction of Falconer, we consider classes of $G_\delta$-subsets of $\mathbb{R}^d$ with the property that sets belonging to the class have large Hausdorff dimension and the class is closed under countable intersections. We…
