We show that every (invertible, or noninvertible) minimal Cantor system embeds in $\mathbb{R}$ with vanishing derivative everywhere. We also study relations between local shrinking and periodic points.

We prove the existence of Cantor families of small amplitude, analytic, quasi-periodic solutions of derivative wave equations, with zero Lyapunov exponents and whose linearized equation is reducible to constant coefficients. This result is…

We present a systematic methodology to determine and locate analytically isolated periodic points of discrete and continuous dynamical systems with algebraic nature. We apply this method to a wide range of examples, including a…

In the paper we study aperiodic substitutional dynamical systems arisen from non-primitive substitutions. We prove that the Vershik homeomorphism $\phi$ of a stationary ordered Bratteli diagram is homeomorphic to an aperiodic substitutional…

In the paper "Finite-rank Bratteli-Vershik diagrams are expansive" [DM], Downarowicz and Maass proved that the Cantor minimal system associated to a properly ordered Bratteli diagram of finite rank is either an odometer system or an…

In an earlier paper, we established a natural connection between the Baum-Connes conjecture and noncommutative Bloch theory, viz. the spectral theory of projectively periodic elliptic operators on covering spaces. We elaborate on this…

We prove an infinite dimensional KAM theorem which implies the existence of Cantor families of small-amplitude, reducible, elliptic, analytic, invariant tori of Hamiltonian derivative wave equations

Downarowicz and Maass (2008) have shown that every Cantor minimal homeomorphism with finite topological rank $K > 1$ is expansive. Bezuglyi, Kwiatkowski, and Medynets (2009) extended the result to non-minimal aperiodic cases. In this paper,…

We suggest that KAM theory could be extended for certain infinite-dimensional systems with purely discrete linear spectrum. We provide empirical arguments for the existence of square summable infinite-dimensional invariant tori in the…

It has long been conjectured that generic dynamical systems has finite periodic orbits, ever since the time of Poincar\'e. In this article, a perturbation method is proposed for the $C^r$ closing of periodic orbits. This method is…

We investigate the localization properties of gapped periodic quantum systems, modeled by a periodic or covariant family of projectors, as e.g. the orthogonal projectors on the occupied orbitals at fixed crystal momentum for a gas of…

Let $X$ be a smooth complete curve, and let $Bun_n$ be the moduli stack of rank $n$ vector bundles on $X$. Let $E$ be a local system on $X$. In a recent paper of E.Frenkel, K.Vilonen and the author, it was shown that the vanishing of a…

We propose a generalization of a conjecture of D. Quillen, on the vanishing of Andr\'e-Quillen homology, to simplicial commutative rings. This conjecture characterizes a notion of local complete intersection, extended to the simplicial…

Forsythe formulated a conjecture about the asymptotic behavior of the restarted conjugate gradient method in 1968. We translate several of his results into modern terms, and generalize the conjecture (originally formulated only for…

We study random dynamical systems generated by volume-preserving piecewise $C^{1}$ maps. For this class of systems, we establish an invariance principle stating that if all Lyapunov exponents vanish, then there exists a measurable family of…

At the light of recent results in literature we review a conjecture formulated in Math. Phys. Electron. J. 1 (1995), paper 5, 1--13, about the mechanism of breakdown of invariant sets in KAM problems and the identification of the dominant…

A Cantor set is a non-empty, compact set that has neither interior nor isolated points. In this paper a Cantor set $K\subseteq \mathbb{R}$ is constructed such that every set definable in $(\mathbb{R},<,+,\cdot,K)$ is Borel. In addition, we…

For a local system and a function on a smooth complex algebraic variety, we give a proof of a conjecture of M. Kontsevich on a formula for the vanishing cycles using the twisted de Rham complex of the formal microlocalization of the…

We consider the outer billiards map with contraction outside polygons. We construct a 1-parameter family of systems such that each system has an open set in which the dynamics is reduced to that of a piecewise contraction on the interval.…
