Dan Rudolph showed that for an amenable group $\Gamma$, the generic measure-preserving action of $\Gamma$ on a Lebesgue space has zero entropy. Here this is extended to nonamenable groups. In fact, the proof shows that every action is a…

Let $G$ be an infinite countable amenable group and let $(X,G)$ be a $G$-subshift with specification, containing a free element. We prove that $(X,G)$ is universal, i.e., has positive topological entropy and for any free ergodic $G$-action…

We prove that every face in the simplex of invariant measures on a zero-dimensional dynamical system with free action of an amenable group $G$ can be modeled as the entire simplex of invariant measures on some other zero-dimensional…

A probability measure preserving action of a discrete amenable group $G$ is said to be dominant if it is isomorphic to a generic extension of itself. Recently, it was shown that for $G = \mathbb{Z}$, an action is dominant if and only if it…

We prove that on a metrizable, compact, zero-dimensional space every free action of an amenable group is measurably isomorphic to a minimal $G$-action with the same, i.e. affinely homeomorphic, simplex of measures.

We prove that a generic p.m.p. action of a countable amenable group $G$ has scaling entropy that can not be dominated by a given rate of growth. As a corollary, we obtain that there does not exist a topological action of $G$ for which the…

We prove that for every ergodic invariant measure with positive entropy of a continuous map on a compact metric space there is $\delta>0$ such that the dynamical $\delta$-balls have measure zero. We use this property to prove, for instance,…

We provide a tool for studying properly discontinuous actions of non-compact groups on locally compact, connected and paracompact spaces, by embedding such an action in a suitable zero-dimensional compactification of the underlying space…

We study the topological complexities of relative entropy zero extensions acted by countableinfinite amenable groups. Firstly, for a given Folner sequence $\{F_n\}_{n=0}^\infty$, we define respectively the relative entropy dimensions and…

We obtain the following embedding theorem for symbolic dynamical systems. Let $G$ be a countable amenable group with the comparison property. Let $X$ be a strongly aperiodic subshift over $G$. Let $Y$ be a strongly irreducible shift of…

We show that the dynamic asymptotic dimension of a minimal free action of an infinite virtually cyclic group on a compact Hausdorff space is always one. This extends a well-known result of Guentner, Willett, and Yu for minimal free actions…

It is well known that if $G$ is a countable amenable group and $G \curvearrowright (Y, \nu)$ factors onto $G \curvearrowright (X, \mu)$, then the entropy of the first action must be greater than or equal to the entropy of the second action.…

We prove that for any infinite countable amenable group $G$, any $\epsilon > 0$ and any finite subset $K\subset G$, there exists a tiling (partition of $G$ into finite "tiles" using only finitely many "shapes"), where all the tiles are $(K;…

Let $G$ be a non-periodic amenable group. We prove that there does not exist a topological action of $G$ for which the set of ergodic invariant measures coincides with the set of all ergodic measure-theoretic $G$-systems of entropy zero.…

We study an invariant of dynamical systems called naive entropy, which is defined for both measurable and topological actions of any countable group. We focus on nonamenable groups, in which case the invariant is two-valued, with every…

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…

In this short note, for countably infinite amenable group actions, we provide topological proofs for the following results: Bowen topological entropy (dimensional entropy) of the whole space equals the usual topological entropy along…

In this work, we show that if $f$ is a uniformly continuous map defined over a Polish metric space, then the set of $f$-invariant measures with zero metric entropy is a $G_\delta$ set (in the weak topology). In particular, this set is…

We develop a model-theoretic framework for the study of distal factors of strongly ergodic, measure-preserving dynamical systems of countable groups. Our main result is that all such factors are contained in the (existential) algebraic…

We prove that for a measure preserving action of a sofic group with positive sofic entropy, the set of points with finite stabilizer have positive measure. This extends results of Weiss and Seward for amenable groups and free groups,…
