Consider a homeomorphism $f$ defined on a compact metric space $X$ and a continuous map $\phi\colon X \to \mathbb{R}$. We provide an abstract criterion, called \emph{control at any scale with a long sparse tail} for a point $x\in X$ and the…
For a class of irrational numbers, depending on their Diophantine properties, we construct explicit rank-one transformations that are totally ergodic and not weakly mixing. We classify when the measure is finite or infinite. In the finite…
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 consider the space of countable structures with fixed underlying set in a given countable language. We show that the number of ergodic probability measures on this space that are $S_\infty$-invariant and concentrated on a single…
We study the optimization of ergodic averages for multi-valued dynamical systems, i.e. where points may have multiple different forward orbits. Under upper semi-continuity assumptions, we show that the maximum space average with respect to…
We study the rich behavior of ergodicity and conservativity of Cartesian products of infinite measure preserving transformations. A class of transformations is constructed such that for any subset $R\subset \mathbb Q\cap (0,1)$ there exists…
A deep analysis of the Lyapunov exponents, for stationary sequence of matrices going back to Furstenberg, for more general linear cocycles by Ledrappier and generalized to the context of non-linear cocycles by Avila and Viana, gives an…
We consider ergodic $\mathrm{Sym}(\mathbb{N})$-invariant probability measures on the space of $L$-structures with domain $\mathbb{N}$ (for $L$ a countable relational language), and call such a measure a properly ergodic structure when no…
We study the problem of lifting a measure to an induced map $F(x)=f^{R(x)}(x)$. In particular, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for an ergodic $f$ invariant probability $\mu$ to be $F$-liftable as well as a condition for the…
We construct a family of ergodic measures on random substitution subshifts (RS-subshifts) associated to a primitive random substitution. In particular, the word frequencies of every finite legal word exist for almost every element of the…
We study the one parameter family of potential functions $q\varphi^u$ associated with the geometric potential $\varphi^u$ for the geodesic flow of a compact rank 1 surface of nonpositive curvature. For $q<1$ it is known that there is a…
We study the dynamics of piecewise affine surface homeomorphisms from the point of view of their entropy. Under the assumption of positive topological entropy, we establish the existence of finitely many ergodic and invariant probability…
Let $f:X\to X$ be a dominating meromorphic map of a compact K\"ahler surface of large topological degree. Let $S$ be a positive closed current on $X$ of bidegree $(1,1)$. We consider an ergodic measure $\nu$ of large entropy supported by…
Ergodic optimization aims to describe dynamically invariant probability measures that maximize the integral of a given function. The Dyck and Motzkin shifts are well-known examples of transitive subshifts over a finite alphabet that are not…
V'yugin has shown that there are a computable shift-invariant measure on Cantor space and a simple function f such that there is no computable bound on the rate of convergence of the ergodic averages A_n f. Here it is shown that in fact one…
We construct a class of rank-one infinite measure-preserving transformations such that for each transformation $T$ in the class, the cartesian product $T\times T$ of the transformation with itself is ergodic, but the product $T\times…
We study ergodic finite and infinite measures defined on the path space $X_B$ of a Bratteli diagram $B$ which are invariant with respect to the tail equivalence relation on $X_B$. Our interest is focused on measures supported by vertex and…
We construct a natural invariant measure concentrated on the set of square-free numbers, and invariant under the shift. We prove that the corresponding dynamical system is isomorphic to a translation on a compact, Abelian group. This…
Given an ergodic dynamical system $(X, \mathcal{B}, \mu, T)$, we prove that for each function $f$ belonging to the Orlicz space $L(\log L)^2(\log \log L)(X, \mu)$, the ergodic averages \[ \frac{1}{\pi(N)} \sum_{p \in \mathbb{P}_N} f\big(T^p…
In this paper, we investigate ergodicity in total variation of the process $X_t$, related to a L\'evy-driven stochastic differential equation with unbounded coefficients, and describe the speed of convergence to the respective invariant…
