We introduce a natural equivalence relation on the space $\sH_0$ of horofunctions of a word hyperbolic group that take the value 0 at the identity. We show that there are only finitely many ergodic measures that are invariant under this…
These notes were written for the Cours Peccot given at the Coll\`ege de France in 2007.
We formulate an ergodic theory for the (almost sure) limit $\mathcal{P}^\text{co}_{\tilde{\mathcal{E}}}$ of a sequence $(\mathcal{P}^\text{co}_{\mathcal{E}_n})$ of successive dynamic imprecise probability kinematics (DIPK, introduced in…
These notes are the outgrowth of a series of lectures given at MSRI in January 1995 at the beginning of the special semester in complex dynamics and hyperbolic geometry. In these notes, the primary aim is to motivate the study of complex…
We introduce a number of new tools for the study of relatively hyperbolic groups. First, given a relatively hyperbolic group G, we construct a nice combinatorial Gromov hyperbolic model space acted on properly by G, which reflects the…
We introduce the concept of a heterodimensional cycle of hyperbolic ergodic measures and a special type of them that we call rich. Within a partially hyperbolic context, we prove that if two measures are related by a rich heterodimensional…
Ergodic theory includes several notions of entropy for probability-preserving actions of countable groups. These include Kolmogorov--Sinai entropy based on F\o lner sequences for amenable groups, entropy defined using a random ordering of…
We provide examples of transitive partially hyperbolic dynamics (specific but paradigmatic examples of homoclinic classes) which blend different types of hyperbolicity in the one-dimensional center direction. These homoclinic classes have…
Detecting events and their evolution through time is a crucial task in natural language understanding. Recent neural approaches to event temporal relation extraction typically map events to embeddings in the Euclidean space and train a…
We generalize a well known periodicity lemma from the case of free groups to the case of acylindrically hyperbolic groups. This generalization will be used later to describe solutions of certain equations in acylindrically hyperbolic groups…
We study the action of a relatively hyperbolic group on its boundary, by methods of symbolic dynamics. Under a condition on the parabolic subgroups, we show that this dynamical system is finitely presented. We give examples where this…
This paper gives two results that show that the dynamics of a time-periodic Lagrangian system on a hyperbolic manifold are at least as complicated as the geodesic flow of a hyperbolic metric. Given a hyperbolic geodesic in the Poincar\'e…
These expository notes present a proof of the Stable/Unstable Manifold Theorem (also known as the Hadamard--Perron Theorem). They also give examples of hyperbolic dynamics: geodesic flows on surfaces of negative curvature and dispersing…
This article is a survey article on geometric group theory from the point of view of a non-expert who likes geometric group theory and uses it in his own research. The sections are: classical examples, basics about quasiisometry,properties…
We discuss selected topics of current research interest in the theory of dynamical systems, with emphasis on dimension theory, multifractal analysis, and quantitative recurrence. The topics include the quantitative versus the qualitative…
Phase transitions with spontaneous symmetry breaking are expected for group field theories as a basic feature of the geometogenesis scenario. The following paper aims to investigate the equilibrium phase for group field theory by using the…
We provide a framework for studying randomly coloured point sets in a locally compact, second-countable space on which a metrisable unimodular group acts continuously and properly. We first construct and describe an appropriate dynamical…
We discuss the Sinai method of proving ergodicity of a discontinuous Hamiltonian system with (non-uniform) hyperbolic behavior.
In this paper, we study the complicated dynamics of Anosov systems driven by an external force in the context of geometric theory (an abundance of random periodic points and random horseshoes) and smooth ergodic theory (random periodic…
We apply the methods of ergodic theory to both simplify and significantly extend some classical results due to Stewart, Tijdeman, and Ruzsa. One of the notable features of our approach is the utilization of pointwise ergodic theory.
