We construct a one-dimensional uniquely ergodic cellular automaton which is not nilpotent. This automaton can perform asymptotically infinitely sparse computation, which nevertheless never disappears completely. The construction builds on…
Any algorithm (in the sense of Gurevich's abstract-state-machine axiomatization of classical algorithms) operating over any arbitrary unordered domain can be simulated by a dynamic cellular automaton, that is, by a pattern-directed cellular…
In this paper we show that any ergodic measure preserving transformation of a standard probability space which is AT$(n)$ for some positive integer $n$ has zero entropy. We show that for every positive integer $n$ any Bernoulli shift is not…
A probability measure is a characteristic measure of a topological dynamical system if it is invariant to the automorphism group of the system. We show that zero entropy shifts always admit characteristic measures. We use similar techniques…
For an ergodic hyperbolic measure $\omega$ of a $C^{1+{\alpha}}$ diffeomorphism, there is an $\omega$ full-measured set $\tilde\Lambda$ such that every nonempty, compact and connected subset $V$ of $\mathbb{M}_{inv}(\tilde\Lambda)$…
The $\mu$-limit set of a cellular automaton is a subshift whose forbidden patterns are exactly those, whose probabilities tend to zero as time tends to in- finity. In this article, for a given subshift in a large class of subshifts, we…
We prove that for certain partially hyperbolic skew-products, non-uniform hyperbolicity along the leaves implies existence of a finite number of ergodic absolutely continuous invariant probability measures which describe the asymptotics of…
Let $\alpha: G\curvearrowright X$ be a minimal free continuous action of an infinite countable amenable group on an infinite compact metrizable space. In this paper, under the hypothesis that the invariant ergodic probability Borel measure…
The aim of this paper is to prove ergodic decomposition theorems for probability measures quasi-invariant under Borel actions of inductively compact groups (Theorem 1) as well as for sigma-finite invariant measures (Corollary 1). For…
Let $G$ be a sofic group, and let $\Sigma = (\sigma_n)_{n\geq 1}$ be a sofic approximation to it. For a probability-preserving $G$-system, a variant of the sofic entropy relative to $\Sigma$ has recently been defined in terms of sequences…
Consider a finite Abelian group (G,+), with |G|=p^r, p a prime number, and F: G^N -> G^N the cellular automaton given by {F(x)}_n= A x_n + B x_{n+1} for any n in N, where A and B are integers relatively primes to p. We prove that if P is a…
One of the fundamental results of ergodic optimization asserts that for any dynamical system on a compact metric space with the specification property and for a generic continuous function $f$ every invariant probability measure that…
In this paper it is proved that if a minimal system has the property that its sequence entropy is uniformly bounded for all sequences, then it has only finitely many ergodic measures and is an almost finite to one extension of its maximal…
For control systems in discrete time, this paper discusses measure-theoretic invariance entropy for a subset Q of the state space with respect to a quasi-stationary measure obtained by endowing the control range with a probability measure.…
We show that the set of ergodic invariant measures of a shift space with a safe symbol (this includes all hereditary shifts) is arcwise connected when endowed with the $d$-bar metric. As a consequence the set of ergodic measures of such a…
Subshifts of deterministic substitutions are ubiquitous objects in dynamical systems and aperiodic order (the mathematical theory of quasicrystals). Two of their most striking features are that they have low complexity (zero topological…
Given a $\mathbb Z^r$-action $\alpha$ on a nilmanifold $X$ by automorphisms and an ergodic $\alpha$-invariant probability measure $\mu$, we show that $\mu$ is the uniform measure on $X$, unless modulo finite index modification, one of the…
We study a non-ergodic one-dimensional probabilistic cellular automata, where each component can assume the states $\+$ and $\-.$ We obtained the limit distribution for a set of measures on $\{\+,\-\}^\Z.$ Also, we show that for certain…
Following work by Hochman and Meyerovitch on multidimensional SFT, we give computability-theoretic characterizations of the real numbers that can appear as the topological entropies of one-dimensional and two-dimensional cellular automata.
In the variational approach to statistical mechanics, equilibrium states are the rigorous analogues of thermodynamic phases; the question of which invariant measures can arise as equilibrium states is therefore the question of which phases…
