We consider the general model for dynamical systems defined on a simplicial complex. We describe the conjugacy classes of these systems and show how symmetries in a given simplicial complex manifest in the dynamics defined thereon,…

A group is sofic when every finite subset can be well approximated in a finite symmetric group. No example of a non-sofic group is known. Higman's group, which is a circular amalgamation of four copies of the Baumslag--Solitar group, is a…

In this paper, we introduce and study the concepts of semi open SOM) and semi closed (SCM) M-sets in multiset topological spaces.With this generalization of the notions of open and closed sets in M-topology, we generalize the concept of…

We provide a quantitative formulation of the equivalence between hyperlinearity and soficity for amenable groups, showing that every hyperlinear approximation to such a group is essentially produced from a sofic approximation. This…

Helicity plays a unique role as an integral invariant of a dynamical system. In this paper, the concept of helicity in the general setting of Hamiltonian dynamics is discussed. It is shown, through examples, how the conservation of overall…

Following works of Furstenberg and Nevo and Zimmer we present an outline of a theory of stationary (or m-stationary) dynamical systems for a general acting group G equipped with a probability measure m. Our purpose is two-fold: First to…

This article presents a general description of dynamical systems using the language of enriched functors and enriched natural transformations. This framework is essential to establish the equivalence of three descriptions of dynamics -- a…

It is shown that the category of \emph{semi-biproducts} of monoids is equivalent to the category of \emph{pseudo-actions}. A semi-biproduct of monoids is a new notion, obtained through generalizing a biproduct of commutative monoids. By…

We give a definition of weakly sofic groups (w-sofic groups). Our definition is rather natural extension of the definition of sofic groups where instead of Hamming metric on symmetric groups we use general bi-invariant metrics on finite…

We define the class of multivariate group entropies as a novel set of information - theoretical measures, which extends significantly the family of group entropies. We propose new examples related to the "super-exponential" universality…

The semiring of discrete dynamical systems is a simple algebraic model for modularity in deterministic systems. The objects of the semiring are finite transformations (viewed as directed graphs and regarded up to isomorphism), the sum of…

Sofic groups generalise both residually finite and amenable groups, and the concept is central to many important results and conjectures in measured group theory. We introduce a topological notion of a sofic boundary attached to a given…

We provide a quantitative formulation of the equivalence between hyperlinearity and soficity for amenable groups, effectively showing how every hyperlinear approximation to such a group is simulated by a suitable sofic approximation. The…

We study groups acting by length-preserving transformations on spaces equipped with asymmetric, partially-defined distance functions. We introduce a natural notion of quasi-isometry for such spaces and exhibit an extension of the…

We give a complete complexity classification for the problem of finding a solution to a given system of equations over a fixed finite monoid, given that a solution over a more restricted monoid exists. As a corollary, we obtain a complexity…

Motivated by appearance of multisemigroups in the study of additive $2$-categories, we define and investigate the notion of a multisemigroup with multiplicities. This notion seems to be better suitable for applications in higher…
