Generalized entropies are studied as Lyapunov functions for the Master equation (Markov chains). Three basic properties of these Lyapunov functions are taken into consideration: universality (independence of the kinetic coefficients),…

We prove a number of results of the following common flavor: for a category $\mathcal{C}$ of topological or uniform spaces with all manner of other properties of common interest (separation / completeness / compactness axioms), a group (or…

We prove, over any base ring, that the infinity-category of strictly unital A-infinity-categories (and strictly unital functors) is equivalent to the infinity-category of unital A-infinity-categories (and unital functors). We also identify…

We show that an arbitrary factor map $\pi:X \to Y$ on an irreducible subshift of finite type is a composition of a finite-to-one factor code and a class degree one factor code. Using this structure theorem on infinite-to-one factor codes,…

In this note we generalize and prove a recent conjecture of Varchenko concerning the number of critical points of a (multivalued) meromorphic function $\phi$ on an algebraic manifold. Under certain conditions, this number turns out to…

Martin's Conjecture states that every definable function on the Turing degrees is either constant or increasing, and that every increasing function is an iterate of the Turing jump. This classification has already been corroborated for the…

We show that the classifying space of the flow category of a \emph{tame} Morse function on a smooth, closed manifold $M$ recovers the homotopy type of $M$, thereby addressing a claim in a preprint of Cohen--Jones--Segal. The tameness…

This note is a contribution written for the second volume of the Encyclopedia of mathematical physics. We give an informal introduction to the notions of an $(\infty,n)$-category and $(\infty,n)$-functor, discussing some of the different…

We give an explicit uniform result on the Mordell conjecture for non-isotrivial curves over function field of characteristic 0. The proof is based on Vojta's method, and make use of Zhang's admissible adelic line bundles and a quantitative…

Let $U_q'(\mathfrak{g})$ be a quantum affine algebra of untwisted affine $ADE$ type, and $\mathcal{C}_{\mathfrak{g}}^0$ the Hernandez-Leclerc category of finite-dimensional $U_q'(\mathfrak{g})$-modules. For a suitable infinite sequence…

The ergodic decomposition theorem is a cornerstone result of dynamical systems and ergodic theory. It states that every invariant measure on a dynamical system is a mixture of ergodic ones. Here we formulate and prove the theorem in terms…

A categorical generalization of the notion of movability from the inverse systems and shape theory was given by the first author who defined the notion of movable category and interpreted by this the movability of topological spaces. In…

Let $f:\mathbb{R}^k\to \mathbb{R}$ be a measurable function, and let $\{U_i\}_{i\in\mathbb{N}}$ be a sequence of i.i.d. random variables. Consider the random process $Z_i=f(U_{i},...,U_{i+k-1})$. We show that for all $\ell$, there is a…

In arithmetic statistics and analytic number theory, the asymptotic growth rate of counting functions giving the number of objects with order below $X$ is studied as $X\to \infty$. We define general counting functions which count…

Let $Y$ be a metrizable space containing at least two points, and let $X$ be a $Y_{\mathcal{I}}$-Tychonoff space for some ideal $\mathcal{I}$ of compact sets of $X$. Denote by $C_{\mathcal{I}}(X,Y)$ the space of continuous functions from…

For an $(\infty,n)$-category $\mathscr E$ we define an $(\infty,1)$ category $\mathrm{TwAr}(\mathscr E)$ and provide an isomorphism between the stabilization of the overcategory of $\mathscr E$ in $\mathrm{Cat}_{(\infty,n)}$ and the…

Riehl and Verity have established that for a quasi-category $A$ that admits limits, and a homotopy coherent monad on $A$ which does not preserve limits, the Eilenberg-Moore object still admits limits; this can be interpreted as a…

Given a domain of characteristic zero $R$, we functorially construct a rigid symmetric monoidal stable $\infty$-category whose $K_0$ is $R$, solving a problem of Khovanov. We also functorially construct for any reduced commutative ring $R$…

We give a universal construction of a derived affine group scheme and its representation category from a symmetric monoidal infinity-category, which we shall call the tannnakization of a symmetric monoidal infinity-category. This can be…

We study the set of chords of a real-valued continuous function on [0,1] with f(0)=f(1)=0. We describe which chords may appear as isolated points and provide examples illustrating our characterization. Maximal Hopf sets are introduced and…
