We extend some aspects of the smooth approximation by conjugation method to the real-analytic set-up and create examples of zero entropy, uniquely ergodic real-analytic diffeomorphisms of the two dimensional torus metrically isomorphic to…
Recently Matthew Foreman and Benjamin Weiss showed in a series of papers that smooth ergodic diffeomorphisms of a compact manifold are unclassifiable up to measure-isomorphism. In this paper we show that the uniform circular systems used in…
On any torus $\mathbb{T}^d$, $d \geq 2$, we prove the existence of a real-analytic diffeomorphism $T$ with a good approximation of type $\left(h,h+1\right)$, a maximal spectral type disjoint with its convolutions and a homogeneous spectrum…
In this chapter, we outline some of the many combinatorial tools developed over the past three decades for studying a pseudo-Anosov diffeomorphism of a surface by analyzing the geometry of its mapping torus. We begin with an overview of the…
We study the behavior of diffeomorphisms, contained in the closure $\bar {\A_\a}$ (in the inductive limit topology) of the set $\A_\a$ of real-analytic diffeomorphisms of the torus $\Bbb T^2$, conjugated to the rotation $R_\a:(x,y)\mapsto…
In both smooth and analytic categories, we construct examples of diffeomorphisms of topological entropy zero with intricate ergodic properties. On any smooth compact connected manifold of dimension 2 admitting a nontrivial circle action, we…
We construct analytic symplectomorphisms on the sphere, the disk and the cylinder which are minimally ergodic (only 3 ergodic measures). To achieve this, we apply and generalize a principle introduced by Berger, based on the Approximation…
For groups of diffeomorphisms of $\T^2$ containing an Anosov diffeomorphism, we give a complete classification for polycyclic Abelian-by-Cyclic group actions on $\T^2$ up to both topological conjugacy and smooth conjugacy under mild…
We construct an infinite dimensional real analytic manifold structure for the space of real analytic mappings from a compact manifold to a locally convex manifold. Here a map is real analytic if it extends to a holomorphic map on some…
We build an irrational pseudo-rotation of the 2-torus which is semiconjugate to an irrational rotation of the circle in such a way that all the fibres of the semi-conjugacy are pseudo-circles. The proof uses the well-known…
We construct a plethora of Anosov-Katok diffeomorphisms with non-ergodic generic measures and various other mixing and topological properties. We also construct an explicit collection of the set containing the generic points of the system…
In this paper we introduce a new methodology for smooth rigidity of Anosov diffeomorphisms based on "matching functions." The main observation is that under certain bunching assumptions on the diffeomorphism the periodic cycle functionals…
We present an overview and some new applications of the approximation by conjugation method introduced by Anosov and the second author more than thirty years ago \cite{AK}. Michel Herman made important contributions to the development and…
The Anosov-Katok method is one of the most powerful tools of constructing smooth volume-preserving diffeomorphisms of entropy zero with prescribed ergodic or topological properties. To measure the complexity of systems with entropy zero,…
We prove the existence of minimal symplectomorphisms and strictly ergodic contactomorphisms on manifolds which admit a locally free $\mathbb{S}^1$--action by symplectomorphisms and contactomorphisms, respectively. The proof adapts the…
We construct a smooth Lie group structure on the group of real analytic diffeomorphisms of a compact analytic manifold with corners. This generalises the known analogous results in the situation where the real analytic manifold has no…
In this paper, we develop a differential-topological method to yield explicit real analytic solutions $v$ to the divergence equation $div_{\mathbb{R}^n} v = f$ on any annali $A(R_1 ,R_2) = \{ x \in \mathbb{R}^n : R_1 < |x| < R_2\}$, with $n…
We prove that toric symplectic manifolds admit Hamiltonian pseudo-rotations with a finite, and in a sense minimal, number of ergodic measures. The set of ergodic measures of these pseudo-rotations consists of the measure induced by the…
Due to a result by Glasner and Downarowicz, it is known that a minimal system is mean equicontinuous if and only if it is an isomorphic extension of its maximal equicontinuous factor. The majority of known examples of this type are almost…
We present here "the" cartesian closed theory for real analytic mappings. It is based on the concept of real analytic curves in locally convex vector spaces. A mapping is real analytic, if it maps smooth curves to smooth curves and real…
