An ideal compressible fluid is considered, with an equilibrium density being a given function of coordinates due to presence of some static external forces. The slow flows in such system, which do not disturb the density, are investigated…
In spaces of nonpositive curvature the existence of isometrically embedded flat (hyper)planes is often granted by apparently weaker conditions on large scales. We show that some such results remain valid for metric spaces with non-unique…
We prove that if the universal minimal flow of a Polish group $G$ is metrizable and contains a $G_\delta$ orbit $G \cdot x_0$, then it is isomorphic to the completion of the homogeneous space $G/G_{x_0}$ and show how this result translates…
In this article, I provide significant mathematical evidence in support of the existence of short-time approximations of any polynomial order for the computation of density matrices of physical systems described by arbitrarily smooth and…
Magnitude and (co)weightings are quite general constructions in enriched categories, yet they have been developed almost exclusively in the context of Lawvere metric spaces. We construct a meaningful notion of magnitude for flow graphs…
We study ergodic averages for a class of pseudodifferential operators on the flat N-dimensional torus with respect to the Schr\"odinger evolution. The later can be consider a quantization of the geodesic flow on $\bT^N$. We prove that, up…
The standard eigenfunctions $\phi_{\lambda} = e^{i < \lambda, x >}$ on flat tori $\R^n / L$ have $L^{\infty}$-norms bounded independently of the eigenvalue. In the case of irrational flat tori, it follows that $L^2$-normalized…
We prove that the accumulation points of a sequence of graphs $G_1,G_2,G_3,\ldots$ with respect to the cut-distance are exactly the weak$^*$ limit points of subsequences of the adjacency matrices (when all possible orders of the vertices…
In this paper we study aspects of the ergodic theory of the geodesic flow on a non-compact negatively curved manifold. It is a well known fact that every continuous potential on a compact metric space has a maximizing measure.…
We show that certain right-invariant metrics endow the infinite-dimensional Lie group of all smooth orientation-preserving diffeomorphisms of the circle with a Riemannian structure. The study of the Riemannian exponential map allows us to…
The normalized eigenvalues $\Lambda_i(M,g)$ of the Laplace-Beltrami operator can be considered as functionals on the space of all Riemannian metrics $g$ on a fixed surface $M$. In recent papers several explicit examples of extremal metrics…
Aim of this article is to introduce the notion of integral and geodesic flows on P-supermanifolds as certain partial actions of R . First I introduce the concept of parametrization over a `small' super algebra P, which leads to the notion…
Convexity properties of the entropy along displacement interpolations are crucial in the Lott-Sturm-Villani theory of lower bounded curvature of geodesic measure spaces. As discrete spaces fail to be geodesic, an alternate analogous theory…
We study minimal Lagrangian surfaces in the complex hyperbolic quadric. We show that minimality of a Lagrangian surface is characterized by a loop of flat connections, which yields an associated $\mathbb S^1$-family of isometric…
Recent results suggest that boundaries of coherent fluid vortices (elliptic coherent structures) can be identified as closed null-geodesics of appropriate Lorentzian metrics defined on the flow domain. Here we derive an automated method for…
We consider nonholonomic geodesic flows of left-invariant metrics and left-invariant nonintegrable distributions on compact connected Lie groups. The equations of geodesic flows are reduced to the Euler-Poincare-Suslov equations on the…
The following question due to Thouvenot is well-known in ergodic theory. Let $S$ and $T$ be automorphisms of a probability space and let $ S \otimes S $ be isomorphic to $T \otimes T $. Could $S$ be not isomorphic to $T$? Our note contains…
We develop a geometric framework for irreversible transport phenomena in which macroscopic evolution equations arise from the combined structure of a thermodynamic state metric and an Onsager-based dissipation metric. The construction…
We show that a flow or a semiflow with a weaker reparametrized form of gluing orbit property is either minimal or of positive topological entropy.
We present a simple proof on the existence of $L^1$-flat analytic polynomials with coefficients $0,1$ on the circle and on the real line and we give an example of a conservative ergodic map and flow whose unitary operators admits a simple…
