In this note we identify the distributional limits of non-negative, ergodic stationary processes, showing that all are possible. Consequences for infinite ergodic theory are also explored and new examples of distributionally stable- and…
We show that every group in a large family of (not necessarily torsion) spinal groups acting on the ternary rooted tree is of subexponential growth.
Consider a holomorphic automorphism acting hyperbolically on an invariant compact set. It has been conjectured that the arising stable manifolds are all biholomorphic to Euclidean space. Such a stable manifold is always equivalent to the…
Given an Axiom A attractor for a $C^{1+\alpha}$ flow ($\alpha>0$), we construct a countable Markov extension with exponential return times in such a way that the inducing set is a smoothly embedded unstable disk. This avoids technical…
The robustness property of exponential dichotomies refers to the stability of this notion under small linear perturbations. In recent work~\cite{PPX}, the authors have identified a new class of perturbations under which the notion of a…
General birth-and-death as well as hopping stochastic dynamics of infinite particle systems in the continuum are considered. We derive corresponding evolution equations for correlation functions and generating functionals. General…
We extend the results of our 2020 paper in the Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa, Classe di Scienze. There, we associated to each of an infinite family of triangle Fuchsian groups a one-parameter family of continued fraction…
We provide the details for Gromov's proof of Stallings' theorem on groups with infinitely many ends using harmonic functions. The main technical result of the paper is a compactness theorem for a certain family of harmonic functions.
Heavy-tailed fluctuations and power law statistics pervade physics, finance, and economics, yet their origin is often ascribed to systems poised near criticality. Here we show that such behavior can emerge far from instability through a…
We prove that for every ergodic invariant measure with positive entropy of a continuous map on a compact metric space there is $\delta>0$ such that the dynamical $\delta$-balls have measure zero. We use this property to prove, for instance,…
We show that finitely generated Abelian groups admit equal growth functions with respect to symmetric generating sets if and only if they have the same rank and the torsion parts have the same parity. In contrast, finitely generated Abelian…
This paper investigates positive harmonic functions on a domain which contains an infinite cylinder, and whose boundary is contained in the union of parallel hyperplanes. (In the plane its boundary consists of two sets of vertical…
If a finitely generated torsion free group K has the property that all finitely generated subgroups S of K are either small or have growth constant bounded uniformly away from 1 then a non proper HNN extension G of K, that is a semidirect…
Let $S$ be a subset of a amenable group $G$ such that $e\in S$ and $S^{-1}=S$. The main result of the paper states that if the Cayley graph of $G$ with respect to $S$ has a certain combinatorial property, then every positive definite…
We deal with a weighted biharmonic problem in the unit ball of $\mathbb{R}^{4}$. The non-linearity is assumed to have critical exponential growth in view of Adam's type inequalities. The weight $w(x)$ is of logarithm type and the potential…
In this work we study nonuniform exponential dichotomies and existence of pullback and forward attractors for evolution processes associated to nonautonomous differential equations. We define a new concept of nonuniform exponential…
Let $\mathcal{T}_{q+1}$ be the $(q+1)$-regular tree and let $G$ be a group of automorphisms acting transitively on the vertices and on the boundary of $\mathcal{T}_{q+1}$. We give an upper bound for the growth of cocycles with values in any…
We prove twisted homological stability with polynomial coefficients for automorphism groups of free nilpotent groups of any given class. These groups interpolate between two extremes for which homological stability was known before, the…
We study harmonic functions which admit a certain majorant in the unit ball in $\R^m $. We prove that when the majorant fulfills a doubling condition, the extremal growth or decay may occur only along small sets of radii, and we give…
We consider time-inhomogeneous ODEs whose parameters are governed by an underlying ergodic Markov process. When this underlying process is accelerated by a factor $\varepsilon^{-1}$, an averaging phenomenon occurs and the solution of the…
