We consider $(1,2)$-rational functions given on the field of $p$-adic numbers $\mathbb Q_p$. In general, such a function has four parameters. We study the case when such a function has two fixed points and show that when there are two fixed…
We study the occurrence of historical behavior for almost every point in the setting of skew products with one-dimensional fiber dynamics. Under suitable ergodic conditions, we establish that a weak form of the arcsine law leads to the…
In this article, we develop a dynamical theory for what shall be called a skew product on the Berkovich projective line, $\phi_*: \mathbb{P}^1_{\text{an}}(K) \to \mathbb{P}^1_{\text{an}}(K)$ over a non-Archimedean field $K$. These functions…
Motivated by a model presented by S. Gudder, we study a quantum generalization of Markov chains and discuss the relation between these maps and open quantum random walks, a class of quantum channels described by S. Attal et al. We consider…
Necessary and sufficient conditions for a Markov chain to be ergodic are that the chain is irreducible and aperiodic. This result is manifest in the case of random walks on finite groups by a statement about the support of the driving…
We investigate semiconjugate rational functions, that is rational functions $A,$ $B$ related by the functional equation $A\circ X=X\circ B$, where $X$ is a rational function of degree at least two. We show that if $A$ and $B$ is a pair of…
We show that for odd-valued piecewise-constant skew products over a certain two parameter family of interval exchanges, the skew product is ergodic for a full-measure choice of parameters.
We study conservative particle systems on W^S, where S is countable and W = {0, ..., N} or the natural numbers. The rate of a particle moving from site x to site y is given by p(x,y) b(eta_x, eta_y), where eta_z is the number of particles…
We present a concise, but systematic, review of the ergodicity issue in strongly correlated systems. After giving a brief historical overview, we analyze the issue within the Green's function formalism by means of the equations of motion…
We introduce a novel method for proving ergodicity for skew products of interval exchange transformations (IETs) with piecewise smooth cocycles having singularities at the ends of exchanged intervals. This approach is inspired by…
The main result of this paper is an analogue for a continuous family of tori of Kronecker-Weyl's unique ergodicity of irrational rotations. We show that the notion corresponding in this setup to irrationality, namely asynchronicity, is…
We present a geometric way of describing the irrationality of a number using the area of a circular sector $A(r)$. We establish a connection between this and the continued fraction expansion of the number, and prove bounds for $A(r)$ as…
Recent studies have shown that many results published in peer-reviewed scientific journals are not reproducible. This raises the following question: why is it so easy to fool myself into believing that a result is reliable when in fact it…
We study a crystal growth Markov model proposed by Gates and Westcott (\cite{Kinetics1}, \cite{Kinetics2}). This is an aggregation process where particles are packed in a square lattice accordingly to prescribed deposition rates. This model…
The orientation of a rigid object can be described by a rotation that transforms it into a standard position. For a symmetrical object the rotation is known only up to multiplication by an element of the symmetry group. Such ambiguous…
We extend the notion of rational ergodicity to $\beta$-rational ergodicity for $\beta > 1$. Given $\beta \in \mathbb R$ such that $\beta > 1$, we construct an uncountable family of rank-one infinite measure preserving transformations that…
We derive the first two moments of generic positive stochastic functionals in terms of the one- and two-time probability density functions of the underlying random walk, and we prove ergodicity of observables in stationary random walks.…
Stochastic processes of interacting particles with varying length are relevant e.g. for several biological applications. We try to explore what kind of new physical effects one can expect in such systems. As an example, we extend the…
This paper contains two parts. In the first part, we study the ergodicity of periodic measures of random dynamical systems on a separable Banach space. We obtain that the periodic measure of the continuous time skew-product dynamical system…
Let (\Omega,\mu) be a shift of finite type with a Markov probability, and (Y,\nu) a non-atomic standard measure space. For each symbol i of the symbolic space, let \Phi_i be a measure-preserving automorphism of (Y,\nu). We study skew…
