We argue that simple dynamical systems are factors of finite automata, regarded as dynamical systems on discontinuum. We show that any homeomorphism of the real interval is of this class. An orientation preserving homeomorphism of the…
We construct homeomorphisms of compacta from relations between finite graphs representing their open covers. Applied to the pseudoarc, this yields simple Fra\"iss\'e theoretic proofs of several important results, both old and new.…
We develop a technique, pseudo-suspension, that applies to invariant sets of homeomorphisms of a class of annulus homeomorphisms we describe, Handel-Anosov-Katok (HAK) homeomorphisms, that generalize the homeomorphism first described by…
In this paper we develop unifying graph theoretic techniques to study the dynamics and the structure of the space of homeomorphisms and the space of self-maps of the Cantor space. Using our methods, we give characterizations which determine…
We prove that for any compact zero-dimensional metric space $X$ on which an infinite countable amenable group $G$ acts freely by homeomorphisms, there exists a dynamical quasitiling with good covering, continuity, F{\o}lner and dynamical…
We study genericity of dynamical properties in the space of homeomorphisms of the Cantor set and in the space of subshifts of a suitably large shift space. These rather different settings are related by a Glasner-King type correspondence:…
A celebrated theorem in two-dimensional dynamics due to John Franks asserts that every area preserving homeomorphism of the sphere has either two or infinitely many periodic points. In this work we reprove Franks' theorem under the…
D. Ruelle considered a general setting where he is able to characterize equilibrium states for H\"older potentials based on properties of conjugating homeomorphism in the so called Smale spaces. On this setting he also shows a relation of…
Dynamical systems methods are used to investigate global behavior of the spatially flat Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmological model in gravitational theory with a non-minimally coupled scalar field and a constant potential function. We…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety defined on a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. On $X$ there is a special morphism $Fr_X$, which raises coordinates to exponent $q$: $t\mapsto t^q$. The two main results in this paper are: Result 1: If…
We establish new results on the dimensional properties of measures and invariant sets associated to random walks and group actions by circle diffeomorphisms. This leads to several dynamical applications. Among the applications, we show,…
In this paper, we prove first that the space of minimal sets of any homeomorphisms $f:X\to X$ of a regular curve $X$ is closed in the hyperspace $2^X$ of closed subsets of $X$ endowed with the Hausdorff metric, and the non-wandering set…
We provide conditions which guarantee that ergodic measures are dense in the simplex of invariant probability measures of a dynamical system given by a continuous map acting on a Polish space. Using them we study generic properties of…
Let $K$ be the Cantor set. We prove that arbitrarily close to a homeomorphism $T:K\rightarrow K$ there exists a homeomorphism $\widetilde T:K\rightarrow K$ such that the $\alpha$-limit and the $\omega$-limit of every orbit is a periodic…
Let $\beta: S^{2n+1}\to S^{2n+1}$ be a minimal homeomorphism ($n\ge 1$). We show that the crossed product $C(S^{2n+1})\rtimes_{\beta} \Z$ has rational tracial rank at most one. More generally, let $\Omega$ be a connected compact metric…
We show that for a minimal, second countable, locally compact Hausdorff \'etale groupoid whose unit space is homeomorphic to the Cantor set, if the groupoid has comparison then the commutator subgroup of its full group is simple. This…
For the generic continuous map and for the generic homeomorphism of the Cantor space, we study the dynamics of the induced map on the space of probability measures, with emphasis on the notions of Li-Yorke chaos, topological entropy,…
Let $\mathbb{K}$ be an algebraically closed field, $X$ a smooth projective variety over $\mathbb{K}$ and $f:X\rightarrow X$ a dominant regular morphism. Let $N^i(X)$ be the group of algebraic cycles modulo numerical equivalence. Let $\chi…
It is known that there is a weak-equivalence between the geometric realization of a simplicially enriched small category and its cofibrant replacement [12]. In this paper, we show that when only small categories are considered there exists…
Let $X$ be a compact metric space and let $f:X\rightarrow X$ be a homeomorphism on $X$. We show that if $f$ is both pointwise recurrent and expansive, then the dynamical system $(X, f)$ is topologically conjugate to a subshift of some…
