We introduce a new information-theoretic formulation of quantum measurement uncertainty relations, based on the notion of relative entropy between measurement probabilities. In the case of a finite-dimensional system and for any approximate…

We consider the problem of ergodicity for the $P(\Phi)_2$ measure of quantum field theory under the flow of the singular stochastic (damped) wave equation $u_{tt} + u_t + (1-\Delta) u + {:}\,p(u)\mspace{2mu}{:} = \sqrt 2 \xi$, posed on the…

For every $p>2$, we construct a regular and continuous specification ($g$-function), which has a variation sequence that is in $l^p$ and which admits multiple Gibbs measures. Combined with a recent result of Johansson and Oberg, this…

We show that a class of robustly transitive diffeomorphisms originally described by Ma\~{n}\'{e} are intrinsically ergodic. More precisely we obtain an open set of diffeomorphisms which fail to be uniformly hyperbolic, but nevertheless have…

It is of great current interest to establish toy models of ergodicity breaking transitions in quantum many-body systems. Here we study a model that is expected to exhibit an ergodic to nonergodic transition in the thermodynamic limit upon…

We consider skew-products with concave interval fiber maps over a certain subshift obtained as the projection of orbits staying in a given region. It generates a new type of (essentially) coded shift. The fiber maps have expanding and…

We show that a certain type of quasi finite, conservative, ergodic, measure preserving transformation always has a maximal zero entropy factor, generated by predictable sets. We also construct a conservative, ergodic, measure preserving…

We show that systems with some specification properties are topologically or almost Borel universal, in the sense that any aperiodic subshift with lower entropy may be topologically or almost Borel embedded.

We prove the finiteness of ergodic measures of maximal entropy for partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms where the center direction has a dominated decomposition into one dimensional bundle and there is a uniform lower bound for the absolute…

In this paper we consider dynamical properties of set-valued mappings and their implications on the associated inverse limit space. Specifically, we define the specification property and topological entropy for set-valued functions and…

In [2], Bowen showed that for an expansive system (X, T) with specification and a potential with the Bowen property, the equilibrium state is unique and fully supported. We generalize that result by showing that the same conclusion holds…

We improve and subsume the conditions of Johansson and \"Oberg [18] and Berbee [2] for uniqueness of a g-measure, i.e., a stationary distribution for chains with complete connections. In addition, we prove that these unique g-measures have…

We study various ergodic properties of C*-dynamical systems inspired by unique ergodicity. In particular we work in a framework allowing for ergodic properties defined relative to various subspaces, and in terms of weighted means. Our main…

In this paper, we investigate the ergodicity in total variation of the process $X_t$ related to some integro-differential operator with unbounded coefficients and describe the speed of convergence to the respective invariant measure. Some…

Rank one transformations serve as a source of examples in ergodic theory, showing variety of algebraic, asymptotic and spectral properties of dynamical systems. The properties of a rank one transformation are closely related to the weak…

We relate ergodic-theoretic properties of a very small tree or lamination to the behavior of folding and unfolding paths in Outer space that approximate it, and we obtain a criterion for unique ergodicity in both cases. Our main result is…

We prove that if a topological dynamical system $(X,T)$ is surjective and has the vague specification property, then its ergodic measures are dense in the space of all invariant measures. The vague specification property generalises Bowen's…

We study the ergodicity of backward product of stochastic and doubly stochastic matrices by introducing the concept of absolute infinite flow property. We show that this property is necessary for ergodicity of any chain of stochastic…

It is known that sectional-hyperbolic attracting sets, for a $C^2$ flow on a finite dimensional compact manifold, have at most finitely many ergodic physical invariant probability measures. We prove an upper bound for the number of distinct…

We describe classes of ergodic dynamical systems for which some statistical properties are known exactly. These systems have integer dimension, are not globally dissipative, and are defined by a probability density and a two-form. This…
