Firstly, we prove that every closed subgroup $H$ of type-preserving automorphisms of a locally finite thick affine building $\Delta$ of dimension $\geq 2$ that acts strongly transitively on $\Delta$ is Moufang. If moreover $\Delta$ is…

Let $f \colon X \to X$ be a continuous map on a compact metric space $X$ and let $\alpha_f$, $\omega_f$ and $ICT_f$ denote the set of $\alpha$-limit sets, $\omega$-limit sets and nonempty closed internally chain transitive sets…

It is shown that, modulo the automorphisms which fix the canonical diagonal MASA point-wise, the group of those automorphisms of the Cuntz algebra O_n which globally preserve both the diagonal and the core UHF-subalgebra is isomorphic, via…

Let $X$ be an irreducible shift of finite type (SFT) of positive entropy, and let $B_n(X)$ be its set of words of length $n$. Define a random subset $\omega$ of $B_n(X)$ by independently choosing each word from $B_n(X)$ with some…

Suppose $P\subseteq \mathbb{N}$ and let $(\Sigma_P,\,\sigma_P)$ be the space of a spacing shift. We show that if entropy $h_{\sigma_P}=0$ then $(\Sigma_P,\,\sigma_P)$ is proximal. Also $h_{\sigma_P}=0$ if and only if $P=\mathbb N\setminus…

We study basic properties of flow equivalence on one-dimensional compact metric spaces with a particular emphasis on isotopy in the group of (self-) flow equivalences on such a space. In particular, we show that an orbit-preserving such map…

Let $\Gamma $ be an infinite discrete group and $\mathsf{A}\subset \Gamma $ a nonempty finite subset. The set of permutations $\sigma $ of $\Gamma $ such that $s^{-1}\sigma (s)\in \mathsf{A}$ for every $s\in \Gamma $ can be identified with…

For a shift-invariant weighted directed graph with vertex set $\mathbb{Z}$, we examine the minimal weight $\kappa_0$ exiting a finite, strongly connected set of vertices. Although $\kappa_0$ is defined as an infimum, it has been shown that…

The article addresses some open questions about the relations between the topological weak mixing property and the transitivity of the map $f\times f^2 \times...\times f^m$, where $f\colon X\ra X$ is a topological dynamical system on a…

Consider a piecewise affine Lipschitz map $\phi : \Omega \to \mathbb R$, where $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^d$ is an open set, and assume that $x \mapsto x + t \nabla \phi(x)$ is injective for almost every $t > 0$. In (J.-G. Liu, R.~L. Pego,…

Let $X$ be a compact metric space. By $2^X$ we denote the hyperspace of all closed and non-empty subsets of $X$ endowed with the Hausdorff metric. Let $f:X\to X$ be a continuous function. In this paper we study some topological properties…

If $u : \Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d \to {\rm X}$ is a harmonic map valued in a metric space ${\rm X}$ and ${\sf E} : {\rm X} \to \mathbb{R}$ is a convex function, in the sense that it generates an ${\rm EVI}_0$-gradient flow, we prove that…

We analyze the question of $U_{\star} (1)$ gauge invariance in a flat non-commutative space where the parameter of non-commutativity, $\theta^{\mu\nu} (x)$, is a local function satisfying Jacobi identity (and thereby leading to an…

Consider $m \in \mathbb{N}$ and $\beta \in (1, m + 1]$. Assume that $a\in \mathbb{R}$ can be represented in base $\beta$ using a development in series $a = \sum^{\infty}_{n = 1}x(n)\beta^{-n}$ where the sequence $x = (x(n))_{n \in…

Let $X$ be a Banach space of dimension $\geq 2$ over the real or complex field ${\mathbb F}$ and ${\mathcal A}$ a standard operator algebra in ${\mathcal B}(X)$. A map $\Phi:{\mathcal A} \rightarrow {\mathcal A}$ is said to be strong…

A sofic shift is a shift space consisting of bi-infinite labels of paths from a labelled graph. Being a dynamical system, the distribution of its closed orbits may indicate the complexity of the space. For this purpose, prime orbit and…

Suppose M is a noncompact connected oriented C^infty n-manifold and omega is a positive volume form on M. Let D^+(M) denote the group of orientation preserving diffeomorphisms of M endowed with the compact-open C^infty topology and D(M;…

To every $Q$-irreducible representation $r$ of a finite group $H$, there corresponds a simple factor $A$ of $Q[H]$ with an involution $\tau$. To this pair $(A,\tau)$, we associate an arithmetic group $\Omega$ consisting of all $(2g-2)\times…

Shifts of finite type and the notion of shadowing, or pseudo-orbit tracing, are powerful tools in the study of dynamical systems. In this paper we prove that there is a deep and fundamental relationship between these two concepts. Let $X$…

Einstein-Maxwell theory is not only covariant under diffeomorphisms but also is under $U(1)$ gauge transformations. We introduce a combined transformation constructed out of diffeomorphism and $U(1)$ gauge transformation. We show that…
