We study the dynamics of generic volume-preserving automorphisms $f$ of a Stein manifold $X$ of dimension at least 2 with the volume density property. Among such $X$ are all connected linear algebraic groups (except $\mathbb{C}$ and…

Relations among von Neumann entropies of different parts of an $N$-partite quantum system have direct impact on our understanding of diverse situations ranging from spin systems to quantum coding theory and black holes. Best formulated in…

In this paper, we consider two questions about topological entropy of dynamical systems. We propose to resolve these questions by the same approach of using \'etale analogs of topological and algebraic dynamical systems. The first question…

In this paper, we introduce a new entropy-like invariant, named Hausdorff metric entropy, for finitely generated semigroups acting on compact metric spaces from a set-valued view and study its properties. We establish the relation between…

Given a categorical dynamical system, i.e. a triangulated category together with an endofunctor, one can try to understand the complexity of the system by computing the entropy of the endofunctor. Computing the entropy of the composition of…

The set of automorphisms of a one-dimensional \shift $(X, \sigma)$ forms a countable, but often very complicated, group. For zero entropy shifts, it has recently been shown that the automorphism group is more tame. We provide the first…

For any $C^1$ diffeomorphism on a smooth compact Riemannian manifold that admits an ergodic measure with positive entropy, a lower bound of the Hausdorff dimension for the local stable and unstable sets is given in terms of the…

Ergodic theory includes several notions of entropy for probability-preserving actions of countable groups. These include Kolmogorov--Sinai entropy based on F\o lner sequences for amenable groups, entropy defined using a random ordering of…

Pfister and Sullivan proved that if a topological dynamical system $(X,T)$ satisfies almost product property and uniform separation property, then for each nonempty compact %convex subset $K$ of invariant measures, the entropy of saturated…

We introduce subshifts of quasi-finite type as a generalization of the well-known subshifts of finite type. This generalization is much less rigid and therefore contains the symbolic dynamics of many non-uniform systems, e.g., piecewise…

Let the complexity of a closed manifold M be the minimal number of simplices in a triangulation of M. Such a quantity is clearly submultiplicative with respect to finite coverings, and by taking the infimum on all finite coverings of M…

We prove that $\mathcal{C}^2$ surface diffeomorphisms have symbolic extensions, i.e. topological extensions which are subshifts over a finite alphabet. Following the strategy of T.Downarowicz and A.Maass \cite{Dow} we bound the local…

We give an upper bound for the topological entropy of maps on inverse limit spaces in terms of their set-valued components. In a special case of a diagonal map on the inverse limit space $\underleftarrow{\lim}(I,f)$, where every diagonal…

In this paper, we prove that the systolic volume of a closed aspherical 3-manifold is bounded below in terms of complexity. Systolic volume is defined as the optimal constant in a systolic inequality. Babenko showed that the systolic volume…

Let TC$_n$(X) denote the n-th topological complexity of a topological space X. It is known that TC$_n$(X) does not exceed n-1 for non-contractible X, and so it makes sense to describe spaces X with TC$_n$(X) =n-1. Grant--Lupton--Oprea…

We consider a discrete dynamical system on a compact manifold M generated by a homeomorphism f. Let C = {M(i)} be a finite covering of M by closed cells. The symbolic image of a dynamical system is a directed graph G with vertices…

Let $G$ be a finitely generated amenable group. We study the space of shifts on $G$ over a given finite alphabet $A$. We show that the zero entropy shifts are generic in this space, and that more generally the shifts of entropy $c$ are…

We introduce the notion of metric entropy for a nonautonomous dynamical system given by a sequence of probability spaces and a sequence of measure-preserving maps between these spaces. This notion generalizes the classical concept of metric…

In this expository paper we describe an unifying approach for many known entropies in Mathematics. First we recall the notion of semigroup entropy h_S in the category S of normed semigroups and contractive homomorphisms, recalling also its…

We show that linear inequalities for entropies have a natural geometric interpretation in terms of Hausdorff and packing dimensions, using the point-to-set principle and known results about inequalities for complexities, entropies and the…
