We prove that the maximal infinite step pro-nilfactor $X_\infty$ of a minimal dynamical system $(X,T)$ is the topological characteristic factor in a certain sense. Namely, we show that by an almost one to one modification of $\pi:X…
If $\pi:(X,T)\to(Z,S)$ is a topological factor map between uniquely ergodic topological dynamical systems, then $(X,T)$ is called an isomorphic extension of $(Z,S)$ if $\pi$ is also a measure-theoretic isomorphism. We consider the case when…
We use the structure theory of minimal dynamical systems to show that, for a general group $\Gamma$, a tame, metric, minimal dynamical system $(X, \Gamma)$ has the following structure: \begin{equation*} \xymatrix {& \tilde{X} \ar[dd]_\pi…
We define weaker forms of topological and measure theoretical equicontinuity for topological dynamical systems and we study their relationships with systems with discrete spectrum and zero sequence entropy. In the topological category we…
In this paper, we define and study the notions of $k$-type proximal pairs, $k$-type asymptotic pairs and $k$-type Li Yorke sensitivity for dynamical systems given by $\mathbb{Z}^d$ actions on compact metric spaces. We prove the…
Recently, G\'{o}rska, Lema\'{n}czyk, and de la Rue characterized the class of automorphisms disjoint from all ergodic automorphisms. Inspired by their work, we provide several characterizations of systems that are disjoint from all minimal…
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…
The Friedrichs extension of minimal linear relation being bounded below and associated with the discrete symplectic system with a special linear dependence on the spectral parameter is characterized by using recessive solutions. This…
In this paper we characterize tame dynamical systems and functions in terms of eventual non-sensitivity and eventual fragmentability. As a notable application we obtain a neat characterization of tame subshifts $X \subset \{0,1\}^{\mathbb…
In this note, we generalise the concept of topo-isomorphic extensions and define finite topomorphic extensions as topological dynamical systems whose factor map to the maximal equicontinuous factor is measure-theoretically at most…
Let $(X,T)$ be a topological dynamical system and $\mathcal{F}$ be a Furstenberg family (a collection of subsets of $\mathbb{Z}_+$ with hereditary upward property). A point $x\in X$ is called an $\mathcal{F}$-transitive one if…
We provide a purely topological characterisation of uniquely ergodic topological dynamical systems (TDSs) whose unique invariant measure is zero entropy loosely Bernoulli (following Ratner, we call such measures loosely Kronecker). At the…
Given any strong orbit equivalence class of minimal Cantor systems and any cardinal number that is finite, countable, or the continuum, we show that there exists a minimal subshift within the given class whose number of asymptotic…
Let $(X, T)$ be a topological dynamical system. Denote by $h (T, K)$ and $h^B (T, K)$ the covering entropy and dimensional entropy of $K\subseteq X$, respectively. $(X, T)$ is called D-{\it lowerable} (resp. {\it lowerable}) if for each…
A `symbolic dynamical system' is a continuous transformation F:X-->X of a closed perfect subset X of A^V, where A is a finite set and V is countable. (Examples include subshifts, odometers, cellular automata, and automaton networks.) The…
In the topological dynamical system $(X,T)$, a point $x$ simultaneously approximates a point $y$ if there exists a sequence $n_1$, $n_2$, ... of natural numbers for which $T^{n_i} x$, $T^{2n_i}x$, ..., $T^{k n_i} x$ all tend to $y$. In…
Let $\boldsymbol{X}=\{X_{k}\}_{k=0}^{\infty}$ be a sequence of compact metric spaces $X_{k}$ and $\boldsymbol{T}=\{T_{k}\}_{k=0}^{\infty}$ a sequence of continuous mappings $T_{k}:X_{k} \to X_{k+1}$. The pair…
Let $(X, f)$ be a topological dynamical system and $\mathcal {F}$ be a Furstenberg family (a collection of subsets of $\mathbb{N}$ with hereditary upward property). A point $x\in X$ is called an $\mathcal {F}$-transitive point if for every…
Sensitivity is a prominent aspect of chaotic behavior of a dynamical system. We study the relevance of nonsensitivity to fixed point theory in affine dynamical systems. We prove a fixed point theorem which extends Ryll-Nardzewski's theorem…
We generalize a result of Lindenstrauss on the interplay between measurable and topological dynamics which shows that every separable ergodic measurably distal dynamical system has a minimal distal model. We show that such a model can, in…
