For a class of locally (but not necessarily uniformly) Lipschitz continuous $d$-dimensional observables over a Gibbs-Markov system, we show that convergence of (suitably normalized and centered) ergodic sums to a non-Gaussian stable vector…
We study the relationship between dynamical properties and interaction patterns in complex oscillator networks in the presence of noise. A striking finding is that noise leads to a general, one-to-one correspondence between the dynamical…
We present a form convergence theorem for sequences of sectorial forms and their associated semigroups in a complex Hilbert space. Roughly speaking, the approximating forms $a_n$ are all `bounded below' by the limiting form $a$, but in…
We consider a simple random walk on a discrete torus (Z/NZ)^d with dimension d at least 3 and large side length N. For a fixed constant u > 0, we study the percolative properties of the vacant set, consisting of the set of vertices not…
We show that any $q$-multiplicative sequence which is \emph{oscillating} of order $1$, i.e.\ does not correlate with linear phase functions $e^{2\pi i n\alpha}$ ($\alpha \in \mathbb{R})$, is Gowers uniform of all orders, and hence in…
Making use of topological periodic cyclic homology, we extend Grothendieck's standard conjectures of type C and D (with respect to crystalline cohomology theory) from smooth projective schemes to smooth proper dg categories in the sense of…
We consider percolation on high-dimensional product graphs, where the base graphs are regular and of bounded order. In the subcritical regime, we show that typically the largest component is of order logarithmic in the number of vertices.…
We discuss the reflection of light by a rheoscopic fluid (a suspension of microscopic rod-like crystals) in a steady two-dimensional flow. This is determined by an order parameter which is a non-oriented vector, obtained by averaging…
The exponential ordering is exploited in the context of non-auto\-no\-mous delay systems, inducing monotone skew-product semiflows under less restrictive conditions than usual. Some dynamical concepts linked to the order, such as…
Furstenberg's flow on the infinite-dimensional torus $\mathbb{T}^\omega$ is defined by \[ T (x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_\nu, \ldots) = (x_1 + \alpha, x_2 + h(x_1), \ldots, x_\nu + h(x_1 + (\nu-2)\beta), \ldots) \] with $\alpha\in \mathbb{R}$…
We show that the measure-valued solutions of the Euler system of gas dynamics generated by oscillatory sequences of consistent approximations violate the principle of maximal entropy production formulated by Dafermos. Numerical results…
We show that a suspension of non-interacting deformable particles subjected to an oscillatory shear flow leads to development of nematic order that arises from the phenomenon of phase synchronization. The synchronized state corresponds to a…
Within the theoretical framework of divergence-type theories (DTTs), we set up a consistent nonlinear hydrodynamical description of a conformal fluid in flat space-time. DTTs go beyond second-order (in velocity gradients) theories, and are…
We study the asymptotic behavior for large N of the disconnection time T_N of simple random walk on a discrete cylinder with base a d-dimensional discrete torus of side-length N. When d is sufficiently large, we are able to substantially…
Many real-world networks exhibit the so-called small-world phenomenon: their typical distances are much smaller than their sizes. One mathematical model for this phenomenon is a long-range percolation graph on a $d$-dimensional box $\{0, 1,…
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.
Sarnak's M\"{o}bius disjointness conjecture asserts that for any zero entropy dynamical system $(X,T)$, $\frac{1}{N} \sum_{n=1} ^N f(T^n x) \mu (n)= o(1)$ for every $f\in \mathcal{C}(X)$ and every $x\in X$. We construct examples showing…
Onsager's regression hypothesis makes a fundamental connection between macroscopic transport phenomena and the average relaxation of spontaneous microscopic fluctuations. This relaxation, however, is agnostic to odd transport phenomena, in…
Recent findings by Jahn, T. Ullrich, Voigtlaender [10] relate non-linear sampling numbers for the square norm to quantities involving trigonometric best $m-$term approximation errors in the uniform norm. Here we establish new results for…
In this paper, we introduce topological dynamical systems with almost countable spectrum. We prove that the Logarithmic Sarnak Conjecture holds for zero-entropy topological dynamical systems whose spectrum is almost countable. This class…
