We introduce the notion of balanced strong shift equivalence between square nonnegative integer matrices, and show that two finite graphs with no sinks are one-sided eventually conjugate if and only if their adjacency matrices are conjugate…
We show that a suitable ring with a ``nice'' topology, in which convergent limits of units are units, is an \aleph_0-exchange ring. We generalize the argument to show that a semi-regular ring, R, with a ``nice'' topology, is a full exchange…
Countable state Markov shifts are a natural generalization of the well-known subshifts of finite type. They are the subject of current research both for their own sake and as models for smooth dynamical systems. In this paper, we…
We consider generalized interval exchange transformations (GIETs) of d intervals ($d\geq 2$) which are linearizable, i.e. differentiably conjugated to standard interval exchange maps (IETs) via a diffeomorphism h of [0, 1] and study the…
We prove that all ($\alpha$-$\beta$)-shifts with $0\le \alpha<1$ and $\beta>2$ are saturated, that is, for any invariant measure, the topological entropy of the set of generic points coincides with the metric entropy.
Irreducible interval exchange transformations are studied with regard to whirly property, a condition for non-trivial spatial factor. Uniformly whirly transformation is defined and to be further studied. An equivalent condition is…
Domino tilings have been studied extensively for both their statistical properties and their dynamical properties. We construct a subshift of finite type using matching rules for several types of dominos. We combine the previous results…
We study discontinuous interval maps generated by the action of erasing block substitutions on the binary expansion. After establishing some general properties of these maps, we categorize erasing block substitutions in a hierarchy of…
We prove that under fairly general conditions an iterated exchange move gives infinitely many non-conjugate braids. As a consequence, every knot has infinitely many conjugacy classes of n-braid representations if and only if it has one…
We prove that any finitely generated elementary amenable group of zero (algebraic) entropy contains a nilpotent subgroup of finite index or, equivalently, any finitely generated elementary amenable group of exponential growth is of…
We give a definition of topological entropy for tree shifts, prove that the limit in the definition exists, and show that it dominates the topological entropy of the associated one-dimensional shift of finite type when the labeling of the…
We show that a typical interval exchange transformation is either weakly mixing or it is an irrational rotation. We also conclude that a typical translation flow on a surface of genus $g \geq 2$ (with prescribed singularity types) is weakly…
In this paper, we investigate the structure of the most general kind of substitution shifts, including non-minimal ones, and allowing erasing morphisms. We prove the decidability of many properties of these morphisms with respect to the…
We consider interacting particle systems with unbounded interaction range on general countably infinite graphs $S$ and prove explicit non-asymptotic error bounds for approximations of the infinite-volume dynamics by systems of finitely many…
This paper is concerned with the lengths of constant length substitutions that generate topologically conjugate systems. We show that if the systems are infinite, then these lengths must be powers of the same integer. This result is a…
We provide a simple description of asymptotic pairs in the subshift associated with an interval exchange transformation and show that, under reasonably general conditions, doubly asymptotic pairs do not occur.
In this brief note, we investigate the topological entropy for linear switched systems. Specifically, we use the Levi-Malcev decomposition of Lie-algebra to establish a connection between the basic properties of the topological entropy and…
We show that the typical dynamical system sometimes begins to behave like a non-deterministic system with a small classical entropy, and this behavior lasts an extremely long time, until the system starts decreasing entropy. Then again it…
This article deals with topological assumptions under which the minimal volume entropy of a closed manifold $M$, and more generally of a finite simplicial complex $X$, vanishes or is positive. These topological conditions are expressed in…
Let $\mathcal G$ be the group of all Interval Exchange Transformations. Results of Arnoux-Fathi ([Arn81b]), Sah ([Sah81]) and Vorobets ([Vor17]) state that $\mathcal G_0$ the subgroup of $\mathcal G$ generated by its commutators is simple.…
