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…

Given a $\mathbb Z^r$-action $\alpha$ on a nilmanifold $X$ by automorphisms and an ergodic $\alpha$-invariant probability measure $\mu$, we show that $\mu$ is the uniform measure on $X$, unless modulo finite index modification, one of the…

We construct a natural invariant measure concentrated on the set of square-free numbers, and invariant under the shift. We prove that the corresponding dynamical system is isomorphic to a translation on a compact, Abelian group. This…

We say that two free probability-measure-preserving actions of countable groups are Shannon orbit equivalent if there is an orbit equivalence between them whose associated cocycle partitions have finite Shannon entropy. We show that if the…

We regard Forcing Notions P adding real numbers and the algebras of P-measurable sets. As for Cohen- and Random-Forcing we can show that each analytic set is P-measurable using Solovay's Unfolding Trick for infinite games. To show this we…

In the paper we throw the first light on studying systematically the local entropy theory for a countable discrete amenable group action. For such an action, we introduce entropy tuples in both topological and measure-theoretic settings and…

We prove that every non-singular Bernoulli shift is either zero-type or there is an equivalent invariant stationary product probability. We also give examples of a type Bernoulli shift and a Markovian flow which are power weakly mixing and…

We show that the class of sofic actions is closed under direct products and contains a (non-unique) maximal element in the weak containment order. For any sofic group we construct nice sofic approximations such that all the sofic actions…

We extend specification and periodic specification to finitely generated group actions on uniform spaces using a concept of specification point. We prove that certain group actions having two distinct specification points have positive…

We consider a conservative ergodic measure-preserving transformation $T$ of a $\sigma$-finite measure space $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu)$ with $\mu(X)=\infty$. Given an observable $f:X\to \mathbb{R}$ we study the almost sure asymptotic behaviour of…

In this article, I give a definition of topological entropy for random dynamical systems associated to an infinite countable discrete amenable group action. I obtain a variational principle between the topological entropy and measurable…

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…

Commutative totally ordered monoids abound, number systems for example. When the monoid is not assumed commutative, one may be hard pressed to find an example. One suggested by Professor Orr Shalit are the countable ordinals with addition.…

We introduce the class of strongly sofic monoids. This class of monoids strictly contains the class of sofic groups and is a proper subclass of the class of sofic monoids. We define and investigate sofic topological entropy for actions of…

We study universal properties of locally compact G-spaces for countable infinite groups G. In particular we consider open invariant subsets of the \beta-compactification of G (which is a G-space in a natural way), and their minimal closed…

We continue our study of when topological and measure-theoretic entropy agree for algebraic action of sofic groups. Specifically, we provide a new abstract method to prove that an algebraic action is strongly sofic. The method is based on…

The $f$-invariant is a notion of entropy for probability-measure-preserving actions of free groups. We show it is invariant under bounded orbit-equivalence.

We study an invariant of dynamical systems called naive entropy, which is defined for both measurable and topological actions of any countable group. We focus on nonamenable groups, in which case the invariant is two-valued, with every…

In this work, we prove that every SFT, sofic shift, and strongly irreducible shift on locally finite groups has strong dynamical properties. These properties include that every sofic shift is an SFT, every SFT is strongly irreducible, every…

The squarefree flow is a natural dynamical system whose topological and ergodic properties are closely linked to the behavior of squarefree numbers. We prove that the squarefree flow carries a unique measure of maximal entropy and express…
