We study the Bowen topological entropy of generic and irregular points for certain dynamical systems. We define the topological entropy of noncompact sets for flows, analogous to Bowen's definition. We show that this entropy coincides with…

For a locally compact sofic group continuously acting on a compact metric space, we first study the relative sofic entropy and prove an additive inequality relating sofic entropy and relative sofic entropy. Moreover, it is shown that the…

What is chaos? Despite several decades of research on this ubiquitous and fundamental phenomenon there is yet no agreed-upon answer to this question. Recently, it was realized that all stochastic and deterministic differential equations,…

In this paper we extend the notion of a continuous bundle random dynamical system to the setting where the action of $\R$ or $\N$ is replaced by the action of an infinite countable discrete amenable group. Given such a system, and a…

A goal in the study of dynamics on the interval is to understand the transition to positive topological entropy. There is a conjecture from the 1980's that the only route to positive topological entropy is through a cascade of period…

This paper generalizes sofic entropy theory, in both the topological and measure-theory settings, to actions of locally compact groups. We prove invariance under topological and measure conjugacy of these entropies and establish the…

In this work we introduce the idea that the primary application of topology in experimental sciences is to keep track of what can be distinguished through experimentation. This link provides understanding and justification as to why…

We give a new type of sufficient condition for the existence of measures with maximal entropy for an interval map $f$, using some non-uniform hyperbolicity to compensate for a lack of smoothness of $f$. More precisely, if the topological…

Some basic notions and results in Topological Dynamics are extended to continuous groupoid actions in topological spaces. We focus mainly on recurrence properties. Besides results that are analogous to the classical case of group actions,…

Using only continuous partitions of unity, we provide equivalent definitions for the metric, topological and topological tail entropies and pressures of a continuous self-map of a compact set, as well as their conditional versions. A tail…

Let $Y$ be a topological Markov chain with finite leading and follower sets. Special flow over $Y$ whose height function depends on the time zero of elements of $Y$ is constructed. Then a formula for computing the entropy of this flow will…

Entropy is a measure of heterogeneity widely used in applied sciences, often when data are collected over space. Recently, a number of approaches has been proposed to include spatial information in entropy. The aim of entropy is to…

We define the topological multiplicity of an invertible topological system $(X,T)$ as the minimal number $k$ of real continuous functions $f_1,\cdots, f_k$ such that the functions $f_i\circ T^n$, $n\in\mathbb Z$, $1\leq i\leq k,$ span a…

We prove that a zero topological entropy continuous tree map always displays zero topological sequence entropy when it is restricted to its non-wandering and chain recurrent sets. In addition, we show that a similar result is not possible…
