Let $\mathbb{T}$ be the unit circle and $\Gamma\setminus G$ the 3-dimensional Heisenberg nilmanifold. We prove that the M\"obius function is linearly disjoint from a class of distal skew products on $\mathbb{T}\times\Gamma\setminus G$.…

We study time changes of bounded type Heisenberg nilflows $(\phi_t)$ acting on the Heisenberg nilmanifold $M$. We show that for every positive $\tau\in W^s(M)$, $s~>~7/2$, every non-trivial time change $(\phi_t^{\tau})$ enjoys the Ratner…

We prove that every infinite minimal subshift with word complexity $p(q)$ satisfying $\limsup p(q)/q < 3/2$ is measure-theoretically isomorphic to its maximal equicontinuous factor; in particular, it has measurably discrete spectrum. Among…

We study substitutive systems generated by nonprimitive substitutions and show that transitive subsystems of substitutive systems are substitutive. As an application we obtain a complete characterisation of the sets of words that can appear…

In this paper, we show that for any sequence ${\bf a}=(a_n)_{n\in \Z}\in \{1,\ldots,k\}^\mathbb{Z}$ and any $\epsilon>0$, there exists a Toeplitz sequence ${\bf b}=(b_n)_{n\in \Z}\in \{1,\ldots,k\}^\mathbb{Z}$ such that the entropy $h({\bf…

Furstenberg's flow on the infinite-dimensional torus $\mathbb{T}^\omega$ is defined by \[ T (x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_\nu, \ldots) = (x_1 + \alpha, x_2 + h(x_1), \ldots, x_\nu + h(x_1 + (\nu-2)\beta), \ldots) \] with $\alpha\in \mathbb{R}$…

Motivated by Sarnak's conjecture on M\"obius orthogonality, we investigate the general problem of orthogonality for a bounded sequence to topological models of characteristic classes of measure-preserving automorphisms. Our main observation…

We introduce the quasiminimal subshifts, subshifts having only finitely many subsystems. With $\mathbb{N}$-actions, their theory essentially reduces to the theory of minimal systems, but with $\mathbb{Z}$-actions, the class is much larger.…

We consider linear dynamical systems with a structure of a multigraph. The vertices are associated to linear spaces and the edges correspond to linear maps between those spaces. We analyse the asymptotic growth of trajectories (associated…

In this article we construct a complete system of M\"obius-geometric invariants for pairs $(S^m, S^l), l \leq m$, of spheres contained in the M\"obius space $S^n$. It consists of n-m generalised stationary angles. We interpret these…

We obtain similar types of conclusions as that of Br\"{u}ck [1] for two differential polynomials which in turn radically improve and generalize several existing results. Moreover, a number of examples have been exhibited to justify the…

We present Veech's proof of Sarnak's theorem on the M\"{o}bius flow which say that there is a unique admissible measure on the M\"{o}bius flow. As a consequence, we obtain that Sarnak's conjecture is equivalent to Chowla conjecture with the…

We prove that the M\"{o}bius function is linearly disjoint from an analytic skew product on the $2$-torus. These flows are distal and can be irregular in the sense that their ergodic averages need not exist for all points. The previous…

Let $G$ be a countable discrete group. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a transitive $G$-system to be disjoint with all minimal $G$-systems, which implies that if a transitive $G$-system is disjoint with all minimal…

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 $X$…

Motivated by Berg's notion of quasi-disjointness for ergodic systems, we introduce and investigate the concept of quasi-disjointness for minimal systems. Several equivalent characterizations are provided. We prove that quasi-disjointness is…

We study dynamics of a substitution subshift given by the substitution a->aca, b->d, c->b, d->c that is related to the Grigorchuk group. This dynamical system is shown to be, up to a countable set, conjugated to the binary odometer.
