The period set of a dynamical system is defined as the subset of all integers $n$ such that the system has a periodic orbit of length $n$. Based on known results on the intersection of period sets of torus maps within a homotopy class, we…
A general formula for the topology and H-flux of the T-duals of type II string theories with H-flux on toroidal compactifications is presented here. It is known that toroidal compactifications with H-flux do not necessarily have T-duals…
We consider the problems of characterizing and testing the stability of cellular automata configurations that evolve on a two-dimensional torus according to threshold rules with respect to the von-Neumann neighborhood. While stable…
Second order systems whose drift is defined by the gradient of a given potential are considered, and minimization of the $L^1$-norm of the control is addressed. An analysis of the extremal flow emphasizes the role of singular trajectories…
We calculate the genus 2 correlation functions of two-dimensional topological gravity, in a background with two primary fields, using the genus 2 topological recursion relations.
We study the directional entropy of the dynamical system associated to a $\Z^2$ configuration in a finite alphabet. We show that under local assumptions on the complexity, either every direction has zero topological entropy or some…
Call a group action on a topological space \emph{biminimal} if for any points $x,y\in X$ there exists a group element taking $x$ arbitrarily close to $y$ and whose inverse takes $y$ arbitrarily close to $x$. A symbolic encoding of the…
A rank one local system on the complement of a hyperplane arrangement is said to be admissible if it satisfies certain non-positivity condition at every resonant edges. It is known that the cohomology of admissible local system can be…
In this paper we study the topological characteristic factors along cubes of minimal systems. It is shown that up to proximal extensions the pro-nilfactors are the topological characteristic factors along cubes of minimal systems. In…
The complexity of a pair $(X,B)$ is an invariant that relates the dimension of $X$, the rank of the group of divisors, and the coefficients of $B$. If the complexity is less than one, then $X$ is a toric variety. We prove that if the…
We prove that the family of measured dynamical systems which can be realised as uniquely ergodic minimal homeomorphisms on a given manifold (of dimension at least two) is stable under measured extension. As a corollary, any ergodic system…
We study the algebraic structure of the $n$-dimensional Cremona group and show that it is not an algebraic group of infinite dimension (ind-group) if $n\ge 2$. We describe the obstruction to this, which is of a topological nature. By…
Topological complexity $\TC{B}$ of a space $B$ is introduced by M. Farber to measure how much complex the space is, which is first considered on a configuration space of a motion planning of a robot arm. We also consider a stronger version…
The book contains the results obtained by the author in 1975-1982 and presents new constructive methods of the topological analysis of integrable systems having non-linear integrals in involution. The phase topology of the classical…
We prove that second rational homology of the Torelli group of an orientable closed surface of genus g is finite dimensional for g at least 51. This rules out the simplest obstruction to the Torelli group being finitely presented and…
It was believed that modular data are enough to distinguish different modular categories (and topological orders in 2+1-dimensions). Then counterexamples to this conjecture were found by Mignard and Schauenburg in 2017. In this work, we…
We solve the loop equations to all orders in $1/N^2$, for the Chain of Matrices matrix model (with possibly an external field coupled to the last matrix of the chain). We show that the topological expansion of the free energy, is, like for…
The sphere $S^2$ and the torus $T^2$ are the only closed connected surfaces for which higher topological complexities are known (for each $n\in\{2,3,...\}\subset\mathbb{N}$, $\mathrm{TC}_n(S^2)=n$ and $\mathrm{TC}_n(T^2)=2n-2$). This text…
We give an algorithm, based on the $\phi$-expansion of Parry, in order to compute the topological entropy of a class of shift spaces. The idea is the solve an inverse problem for the dynamical systems $\beta x+\alpha \mod1$.The first part…
We take the first steps towards a better understanding of continuous orbit equivalence, i.e., topological orbit equivalence with continuous cocycles. First, we characterise continuous orbit equivalence in terms of isomorphisms of C*-crossed…
