This text is an expanded series of lecture notes based on a 5-hour course given at the workshop entitled "Workshop for young researchers: Groups acting on manifolds" held in Teres\'opolis, Brazil in June 2016. The course introduced a number…

For dynamical systems satisfying the approximate $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ or $\mathbb{Z}_+^{d}$-product property and asymptotically entropy expansiveness, we establish a precise description of the structure of their space of invariant measures. In…

We consider topological dynamical systems given by skew products $S\rtimes_{\tau} T$, where $S\colon Y\to Y$ is a subshift, $\tau\colon Y\to\mathbb{Z}$ is a continuous cocycle, and $T$ is an arbitrary invertible topological system. For…

We establish arithmeticity in the sense of A. Katok and F. Rodriguez Hertz of smooth actions $\alpha$ of $\mathbb{R}^k$ on an anonymous manifold $M$ of dimension $2k+1$ provided that there is an ergodic invariant Borel probability measure…

We study nontrivial entropy invariants in the class of parabolic flows on homogeneous spaces, quasi-unipotent flows. We show that topological complexity (ie, slow entropy) can be computed directly from the Jordan block structure of the…

We recognise that an entropy inequality akin to the main intermediate goal of recent works (Gowers, Green, Manners, Tao [3],[2]) regarding a conjecture of Marton provides a black box from which we can also through a short deduction recover…

The goal of this article is two-fold: in a first part, we prove Azuma-Hoeffding type concentration inequalities around the drift for the displacement of non-elementary random walks on hyperbolic spaces. For a proper hyperbolic space $M$, we…

Let G be a sofic group and X a compact group that G acts on by automorphisms. Using (and reformulating) the notion of doubly-quenched convergence developed by Austin, we show that in many cases the topological and the measure-theoretic…

Sofic entropy is an invariant for probability-preserving actions of sofic groups. It was introduced a few years ago by Lewis Bowen, and shown to extend the classical Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy from the setting of amenable groups. Some parts…

We study actions by lattices in higher-rank (semi)simple Lie groups on compact manifolds. By classifying certain measures invariant under a related higher-rank abelian action (the diagonal action on the suspension space) we deduce a number…

In this short note we study the entropy for algebraic actions of certain amenable groups. The possible values for this entropy are studied. Various fundamental results about certain classes of amenable groups are reproved using elementary…

The harmonic measure $\nu$ on the boundary of the group $Sol$ associated to a discrete random walk of law $\mu$ was described by Kaimanovich. We investigate when it is absolutely continuous or singular with respect to Lebesgue measure. By…

In 2007, Ye \& Zhang introduced a version of local topological entropy. Since their entropy function is, as we show under mild conditions, constant for topologically transitive dynamical systems, we propose to adjust the notion in a way…

Recently Lewis Bowen introduced a notion of entropy for measure-preserving actions of a countable sofic group on a standard probability space admitting a generating partition with finite entropy. By applying an operator algebra perspective…

Let $(X, \phi)$ be a compact metric flow without fixed points. We will be concerned with the entropy of flows which takes into consideration all possible reparametrizations of the flows. In this paper, by establishing the Brin-Katok's…

We study a rich family of robustly non-hyperbolic transitive diffeomorphisms and we show that each ergodic measure is approached by hyperbolic sets in weak$*$-topology and in entropy. For hyperbolic ergodic measures, it is a classical…

The aim of this paper is to prove that, for specific initial data $(u_0,u_1)$ and with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions, the solution of the IBVP for a hyperbolic variation of Allen-Cahn equation on the interval $[a,b]$ shares the…

For integers $a$ and $b\geq 2$, let $T_a$ and $T_b$ be multiplication by $a$ and $b$ on $\mathbb{T}=\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$. The action on $\mathbb{T}$ by $T_a$ and $T_b$ is called $\times a,\times b$ action and it is known that, if $a$ and…

In this paper we advance the entropy theory of discrete nonautonomous dynamical systems that was initiated by Kolyada and Snoha in 1996. The first part of the paper is devoted to the measure-theoretic entropy theory of general topological…

We prove that every smooth action of Z^k, k>1, on the (k+1)-dimensional torus homotopic to an action by hyperbolic linear maps preserves an absolutely continuous measure. This is a first known result concerning abelian groups of…
