A number of recent works have sought to generalize the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy of probability-preserving transformations to the setting of Markov operators acting on the integrable functions on a probability space $(X,\mu)$. These have…

Jedrzejewicz showed that a polynomial map over a field of characteristic zero is invertible, if and only if the corresponding endomorphism maps irreducible polynomials to irreducible polynomials. Furthermore, he showed that a polynomial map…

Let $\mathbf{\eta}$ be a positive Radon measure on the space of continuous paths from R into a locally compact Polish space $Y$, and assume that $\mathbf{\eta}$ admits an invariant measure. We explicit conditions on $\mathbf{\eta}$ such…

We prove two recent conjectures of Bourn and Erickson (2023) regarding the real-rootedness of a certain family of polynomials $N_n(t)$ as well as the sum of their coefficients. These polynomials arise as the numerators of generating…

We consider the roots of uniformly chosen complex and real reciprocal polynomials of degree $N$ whose Mahler measure is bounded by a constant. After a change of variables this reduces to a generalization of Ginibre's complex and real…

We study the representation theory of the algebraic Toeplitz algebra $R={\mathbb K}\langle x,y\rangle/\langle xy-1\rangle$, give a few new structure and homological theorems, completely determine one-sided ideals and survey and re-obtain…

We consider collections of $N$ chordal random curves obtained from a critical lattice model on a planar graph, in the limit when a fine-mesh graph approximates a simply-connected domain. We define and study candidates for such limits in…

Let $T$ be an expanding Markov map with a countable number of inverse branches and a repeller $\Lambda$ contained within the unit interval. Given $\alpha \in \R_+$ we consider the set of points $x \in \Lambda$ for which $T^n(x)$ hits a…

Downarowicz and Maass (2008) have shown that every Cantor minimal homeomorphism with finite topological rank $K > 1$ is expansive. Bezuglyi, Kwiatkowski and Medynets (2009) extended the result to non-minimal cases. On the other hand,…

Let M be the moduli scheme of canonically polarized manifolds with Hilbert polynomial h. We construct for a given finite set I of natural numbers m>1 with h(m)>0 a projective compactification M' of the reduced scheme underlying M such that…

We study the distribution of families of multiplicative functions among the coprime residue classes to moduli varying uniformly in a wide range, obtaining analogues of the Siegel--Walfisz Theorem for large classes of multiplicative…

Random Matrix Theory (RMT) has successfully modeled diverse systems, from energy levels of heavy nuclei to zeros of $L$-functions; this correspondence has allowed RMT to successfully predict many number theoretic behaviors. However there…

In the paper "Finite-rank Bratteli-Vershik diagrams are expansive" [DM], Downarowicz and Maass proved that the Cantor minimal system associated to a properly ordered Bratteli diagram of finite rank is either an odometer system or an…

This paper introduces vector copulas associated with multivariate distributions with given multivariate marginals, based on the theory of measure transportation, and establishes a vector version of Sklar's theorem. The latter provides a…

In this paper, we establish a coupling lemma for standard families in the setting of piecewise expanding interval maps with countably many branches. Our method merely requires that the expanding map satisfies Chernov's one-step expansion at…

Analogously to the space of virtual permutations, we define projective limits of isometries: these sequences of unitary operators are natural in the sense that they minimize the rank norm between successive matrices of increasing sizes. The…

We employ techniques from optimal transport in order to prove decay of transfer operators associated to iterated functions systems and expanding maps, giving rise to a new proof without requiring a Doeblin-Fortet (or Lasota-Yorke)…

We consider the sensitivity of real roots of polynomial systems with respect to perturbations of the coefficients. In particular - for a version of the condition number defined by Cucker, Krick, Malajovich, and Wschebor - we establish new…

We study the location and the size of the roots of Steiner polynomials of convex bodies in the Minkowski relative geometry. Based on a problem of Teissier on the intersection numbers of Cartier divisors of compact algebraic varieties it was…

We address the general problem of estimating the probability that a real symmetric tensor is close to rank-one tensors. Using Weyl's tube formula, we turn this question into a differential geometric one involving the study of metric…
