The cross topology $\gamma$ on a product of topological spaces $X$ and $Y$ is the collection of all sets $G\subseteq X\times Y$ such that the intersection of $G$ with every vertical line and every horizontal line is an open subset of either…
We introduce a bivariate version of topological complexity, $\mathrm{TC}(f,g)$, associated with two continuous maps $f\colon X\to Z$ and $g\colon Y\to Z$. This invariant measures the minimal number of continuous motion planning rules…
Let $(X,d)$ be a compact metric space and $F=\{f_1,f_2,...,f_m\}$ be an $m$-tuple of continuous maps from $X$ to itself. In this paper, we introduce the definitions of transitivity, weakly mixing and mixing of multiple mappings $(X,F)$ from…
In this paper we study interval maps $f$ with zero topological entropy that are crooked; i.e. whose inverse limit with $f$ as the single bonding map is the pseudo-arc. We show that there are uncountably many pairwise non-conjugate zero…
It is known that every homeomorphism of the plane has a fixed point in a non-separating, invariant subcontinuum. Easy examples show that a branched covering map of the plane can be periodic point free. In this paper we show that any…
Given a partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism $f:M \rightarrow M$ defined on a compact Riemannian manifold $M$, in this paper we define the concept of unstable topological entropy of $f$ on a set $Y \subset M$ not necessarily compact and we…
Given a tree map $f:T\to T$, we study the dynamics of subcontinua of $T$ under action of $f$. In particular, we prove that a subcontinuum of $T$ is either asymptotically periodic or asymptotically degenerate. As an application of this…
Shifts of finite type and the notion of shadowing, or pseudo-orbit tracing, are powerful tools in the study of dynamical systems. In this paper we prove that there is a deep and fundamental relationship between these two concepts. Let $X$…
The notion of Bohr chaos was introduced in [3, 4]. We answer a question raised in [3] of whether a non uniquely ergodic minimal system of positive topological entropy can be Bohr chaotic. We also prove that all systems with the…
We study topological conditions ensuring the presence of rotational chaos for non-wandering or area-preserving annular homeomorphisms. Compared to previous criteria, our main result provides a simpler alternative that avoids the need to…
In this article we prove that for a diffeomorphism on a compact Riemannian manifold, if there is a nontrival homoclinic class that is not uniformly hyperbolic or the diffeomorphism is a $C^{1+\alpha}$ and there is a hyperbolic ergodic…
Hierarchy of one-parameter families of chaotic maps with an invariant measure have been introduced, where their appropriate coupling has lead to the generation of some coupled chaotic maps with an invariant measure. It is shown that these…
The property of countable metacompactness of a topological space gets its importance from Dowker's 1951 theorem that the product of a normal space X with the unit interval is again normal iff X is countably metacompact. In a recent paper,…
The Gauss map (or continued fraction map) is an important dissipative one-dimensional discrete-time dynamical system that exhibits chaotic behaviour and which generates a symbolic dynamics consisting of infinitely many different symbols.…
Given a compact metric space (X; \varrho) and a continuous function f:X\rightarrow X, we study the dynamics of the induced map \bar{f} on the hyperspace of the compact subsets of X. We show how the chain recurrent set of f and its…
Let $\boldsymbol{X}=\{X_{k}\}_{k=0}^{\infty}$ be a sequence of compact metric spaces $X_{k}$ and $\boldsymbol{T}=\{T_{k}\}_{k=0}^{\infty}$ a sequence of continuous mappings $T_{k}:X_{k} \to X_{k+1}$. The pair…
The concept of "$A$-coupled-expanding" map for a transition matrix $A$ has been studied as one of the most important criteria of chaos in the past years. In this paper, the lower bound of the topological entropy for strictly…
The main aim of this paper is extending the concept of scambled pair and Li--Yorke chaos to non--uniform compact dynamical systems. We show for finite (compact Alexandroff) topological space $X$ with at least two elements the following…
For a given topological dynamical system $(X,T)$ over a compact set $X$ with a metric $d$, the "variational principle" states that \begin{equation*} \sup_{\mu}h_\mu(T) = h(T) = h_d(T), \end{equation*} where $h_\mu(T)$ is the…
Let $G$ be an infinite countable discrete amenable group. For any $G$-action on a compact metric space $X$, it is proved that for any sequence $(G_n)_{n\ge 1}$ consisting of non-empty finite subsets of $G$ with $\lim_{n\to…
