Let $\F$ be a collection of subsets of $\Z_+$ and $(X,T)$ be a dynamical system. $x\in X$ is $\F$-recurrent if for each neighborhood $U$ of $x$, $\{n\in\Z_+:T^n x\in U\}\in \F$. $x$ is $\F$-product recurrent if $(x,y)$ is recurrent for any…

Using a result of Behrend concerning sets without arithmetic progressions, we construct some examples of dynamical systems with slow time of multiple recurrence. Our theorem is a quatitative analog of Furstenberg's Correspondence Principle.

We investigate the structure of return-time sets determined by orbits along polynomial tuples in minimal topological dynamical systems. Building on the topological characteristic factor theory of Glasner, Huang, Shao, Weiss, and Ye, we…

Let $G$ be a countable infinite discrete group. We show that a subset $F$ of $G$ contains a return time set of some piecewise syndetic recurrent point $x$ in a compact Hausdorff space $X$ with a $G$-action if and only if $F$ is a…

In the topological dynamical system $(X,T)$, a point $x$ simultaneously approximates a point $y$ if there exists a sequence $n_1$, $n_2$, ... of natural numbers for which $T^{n_i} x$, $T^{2n_i}x$, ..., $T^{k n_i} x$ all tend to $y$. In…

For continuous maps of compact metric spaces $f:X\to X$ and $g:Y\to Y$ and for various notions of topological recurrence, we study the relationship between recurrence for $f$ and $g$ and recurrence for the product map $f\times g:X\times Y…

We construct, in locally compact, second countable, amenable groups, sets with large density that fail to have certain combinatorial properties. For the property of being a shift of a set of measurable recurrence we show that this is…

The article addresses some open questions about the relations between the topological weak mixing property and the transitivity of the map $f\times f^2 \times...\times f^m$, where $f\colon X\ra X$ is a topological dynamical system on a…

We construct a set $S$ such that every translate of $S$ is a set of recurrence and a set of rigidity for a weak mixing measure preserving system. This construction generalizes or strengthens results of Katznelson, Saeki, Forrest, and Fayad…

In the paper we study relations of rigidity, equicontinuity and pointwise recurrence between a t.d.s. $(X,T)$ and the t.d.s. $(K(X),T_K)$ induced on the hyperspace $K(X)$ of all compact subsets of $X$, and provide some characterizations.…

We prove the asymptotic independence of the empirical process $\alpha_n = \sqrt{n}( F_n - F)$ and the rescaled empirical distribution function $\beta_n = n (F_n(\tau+\frac{\cdot}{n})-F_n(\tau))$, where $F$ is an arbitrary cdf,…

Using proof-theoretical techniques, we analyze a proof by H.-K. Xu regarding a result of strong convergence for the Halpern type proximal point algorithm. We obtain a rate of metastability (in the sense of T. Tao) and also a rate of…

We consider consistent particle systems, which include independent random walkers, the symmetric exclusion and inclusion processes, as well as the dual of the KMP model. Consistent systems are such that the distribution obtained by first…

We give an introduction to a notion of weak dependence which is more general than mixing and allows to treat for example processes driven by discrete innovations as they appear with time series bootstrap. As a typical example, we analyze…

We analyze the resurgence properties of finite-dimensional exponential integrals which are prototypes for partition functions in quantum field theories. In these simple examples, we demonstrate that perturbation theory, even at arbitrarily…

We show that a doubly minimal system $X$ has the property that for every minimal system $Y$ the orbit closure of any pair $(y,x) \in Y \times X$ is either $Y \times X$ or it has the form $\Gamma_\pi = \{(\pi(x),x) : x \in X\}$ for some…

Estimation of the mixing distribution under a general mixture model is a very difficult problem, especially when the mixing distribution is assumed to have a density. Predictive recursion (PR) is a fast, recursive algorithm for…

In his seminal 1967 paper "Disjointness in ergodic theory, minimal sets, and a problem in Diophantine approximation" Furstenberg introduced the notion of disjointness of dynamical systems, both topological and measure preserving. In this…

We consider invertible discrete-time dynamical systems having a hyperbolic product structure in some region of the phase space with infinitely many branches and variable recurrence time. We show that the decay of correlations of the SRB…

Quantum systems exhibit recurrence phenomena after equilibration, but it is a difficult task to evaluate the recurrence time of a quantum system because it drastically increases as the system size increases (usually double-exponential in…
