This paper discusses the thermodynamic properties for certain time-dependent dynamical systems. In particular, we are interested in time-dependent dynamical systems with the specification property. We show that each time-dependent dynamical…
In this paper, we introduce a property of topological dynamical systems that we call finite dynamical complexity. For systems with this property, one can in principle compute the $K$-theory of the associated crossed product $C^*$-algebra by…
Given positive integers n and m, we consider dynamical systems in which n copies of a topological space is homeomorphic to m copies of that same space. The universal such system is shown to arise naturally from the study of a C*-algebra we…
For a class of compactly supported windows we characterize the frame property for a Gabor system $\mts,$ for translation parameters $a$ belonging to a certain range depending on the support size. We show that the obstructions to the frame…
Given an action of a finite group $G$, we can define its index. The $G$-index roughly measures a size of the given $G$-space. We explore connections between the $G$-index theory and topological dynamics. For a fixed-point free dynamical…
Let $\mathcal{M}(X)$ be the space of Borel probability measures on a compact metric space $X$ endowed with the weak$^\ast$-topology. In this paper, we prove that if the topological entropy of a nonautonomous dynamical system…
We revisit the $t154$ variant of the Biroli-Mezard lattice glass, complementing previous studies by studying statics and dynamics under periodic boundary conditions as well as systems confined in cavities with amorphous boundaries. We…
We study the low temperature dynamics of a two dimensional short-range spin system with uniform ferromagnetic interactions, which displays glassiness at low temperatures despite the absence of disorder or frustration. The model has a dual…
Consider a dynamical system $T:\mathbb{T}\times \mathbb{R}^{d} \rightarrow \mathbb{T}\times \mathbb{R}^{d} $ given by $ T(x,y) = (E(x), C(y) + f(x))$, where $E$ is a linear expanding map of $\mathbb{T}$, $C$ is a linear contracting map of…
In this paper, a simple case of Bayesian mechanics under the free energy principle is formulated in axiomatic terms. We argue that any dynamical system with constraints on its dynamics necessarily looks as though it is performing inference…
Given a compact metric space $X$ and an upper semicontinuous function $F\colon X \to 2^X$, we explore the dynamic system $(X,F)$. In this study, we introduce new concepts, demonstrate various results, and provide numerous examples. In…
In this paper, we show that one can naturally associate a limiting dynamical system $F: T\longrightarrow T$ on an $\R$-tree to any degenerating sequence of rational maps $f_n: \hat\C \longrightarrow \hat\C$ of fixed degree. The construction…
Dynamical systems at the edge of chaos, which have been considered as models of self-organization phenomena, are marked by their ability to perform nontrivial computations. To distinguish them from systems with limited computing power, we…
We introduce and study dynamical systems and measures on stationary generalized Bratteli diagrams $B$ that are represented as the union of countably many classical Pascal-Bratteli diagrams. We describe all ergodic tail invariant measures on…
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…
Modifying Besicovitch's construction of a set $\mathcal{B}$ of positive integers whose set of multiples $\mathcal{M}_{\mathcal{B}}$ has no asymptotic density, we provide examples of such sets $\mathcal{B}$ for which…
We consider topological dynamical systems over $\ZZ$ and, more generally, locally compact, $\sigma$-compact abelian groups. We relate spectral theory and diffraction theory. We first use a a recently developed general framework of…
We analyze the properties of weakly compact sets in Lipschitz free spaces. Prior research has established that, for a complete metric space $M$, weakly precompact sets in the Lipschitz free space $\mathcal F(M)$ are tight. In this paper, we…
For a dynamical system, we study the set of points $\cal W$ whose orbit approximates any chosen point at certain specified rates. Our basic setting is that of left shift acting on topological Markov chains endowed with a local weak Gibbs…
We study a Weiner process that is conditioned to pass through a finite set of points and consider the dynamics generated by iterating a sample path from this process. Using topological techniques we are able to characterize the global…
