We consider the Lagrange and the Markov dynamical spectra associated to horseshoes on surface with Hausdorff dimensions greater than 1. We show that for a "large" set of real functions on the surface and for "typical" horseshoes with…
The dynamical Markov and Lagrange spectra are subsets of the real line widely studied and that share some similarities with the classical spectra, e.g. typical dynamical spectra, associated to horseshoes with Hausdorff dimension greater…
We prove that, for every $k\ge 4$, the sets $M(k)$ and $L(k)$, which are Markov and Lagrange dynamical spectra related to conservative horseshoes and associated to continued fractions with coefficients bounded by $k$ coincide with the…
The Markov and Lagrange dynamical spectra, was introduced by Moreira and share several geometric and topological aspects with the classical ones. However, some features of generic dynamical spectra associated to hyperbolic sets can be…

We present a connection between minimal surfaces of index one and General Relativity. First, we show that for a certain class of (electro)static systems, each of its unstable horizons is the solution of a one-parameter min-max problem for…
We prove several results on (fractal) geometric properties of the classical Markov and Lagrange spectra. In particular, we prove that the Hausdorff dimensions of intersections of both spectra with half-lines always coincide, and may assume…

The (classical) Lagrange spectrum is a closed subset of the positive real numbers defined in terms of diophantine approximation. Its structure is quite involved. This article describes a polynomial time algorithm to approximate it in…
We investigate Markov property of rough surfaces. Using stochastic analysis we characterize the complexity of the surface roughness by means of a Fokker-Planck or Langevin equation. The obtained Langevin equation enables us to regenerate…

We define a class of Markovian parallel dynamics for spin systems on arbitrary graphs with nearest neighbor interaction described by a Hamiltonian function $H(\sigma)$. These dynamics turn out to be reversible and their stationary measure…

It is well-known that the dynamical spectrum of an ergodic measure dynamical system is related to the diffraction measure of a typical element of the system. This situation includes ergodic subshifts from symbolic dynamics as well as…
Let $L$ and $M$ denote the classical Lagrange and Markov spectra, respectively. It is known that $L\subset M$ and that $M\setminus L\neq\varnothing$. Inspired by three questions asked by the third author in previous work investigating the…
We develop a generalized Markov theory for the Markov--Lagrange and Markov spectra. The classical discrete Markov spectrum is governed by Markov numbers, the positive integers occurring in solutions of the Markov equation. We show that this…
Low temperature surface diffusion is driven by the thermally activated hopping of adatoms between adsorption sites. Helium spin-echo techniques, capable of measuring the sub-picosecond motion of individual adatoms, have enabled the…
