We prove an analog of Perron-Frobenius theorem for multilinear forms with nonnegative coefficients, and more generally, for polynomial maps with nonnegative coefficients. We determine the geometric convergence rate of the power algorithm to…
The decomposition of correlation functions into conformal blocks is an indispensable tool in conformal field theory. For spinning correlators, non-trivial tensor structures are needed to mediate between the conformal blocks, which are…
In this work we study the structure of finitely generated groups for which a space of harmonic functions with fixed polynomial growth is finite dimensional. It is conjectured that such groups must be virtually nilpotent (the converse…
We give a new categorical approach to the Halmos-von Neumann theorem for actions of general topological groups. As a first step, we establish that the categories of topological and measure-preserving irreducible systems with discrete…
In this paper, we develop Pesin theory for the boundary map of some Fatou components of transcendental functions, under certain hyptothesis on the singular values and the Lyapunov exponent. That is, we prove that generic inverse branches…
The Ruelle-Perron-Frobenius (RPF) theorem is a powerful tool in the study of equilibrium measures and their statistical properties. We prove a nonstationary version of this theorem under general conditions involving an invariant sequence of…
We prove results on mixing and mixing rates for toral extensions of nonuniformly expanding maps with subexponential decay of correlations. Both the finite and infinite measure settings are considered. Under a Dolgopyat-type condition on…
We study the connection between the dimension of certain spaces of harmonic functions on a group and its geometric and algebraic properties. Our main result shows that (for sufficiently "nice" random walk measures) a connected, compactly…
In the previous version of this paper we prove a theorem on the boundary behavior of the conical plurisubharmonic measure. However, the proof turns out to be incomplete. In the present version we give a corrected proof of this theorem. We…
We characterise amenability of a countable group in terms of the spectral radius of the Perron-Frobenius operator associated to a group extension of a countable Markov shift and a H\"older continuous potential. This extends a result of Day…
In this paper, we prove a Logarithmic Conjugation Theorem on finitely-connected tori. The theorem states that a harmonic function can be written as the real part of a function whose derivative is analytic and a finite sum of terms involving…
For any order of growth $f(n)=o(\log n)$ we construct a finitely-generated group $G$ and a set of generators $S$ such that the Cayley graph of $G$ with respect to $S$ supports a harmonic function with growth $f$ but does not support any…
We show that the space of harmonic functions on a finitely generated infinite group G is finite dimensional if, and only if, G has a finite-index subgroup isomorphic to the integers. A key tool is Wilkie and van den Dries's quantitative…
For topologically mixing locally conformal semigroup actions generated by a finite collection of $C^{1+\alpha}$ conformal local diffeomorphisms, we provide a countable Markov partition satisfying the finite images and the finite cycle…
We prove that all groups of exponential growth support non-constant positive harmonic functions. In fact, out results hold in the more general case of strongly connected, finitely supported Markov chains invariant under some transitive…
In this paper, we prove two main theorems: conformal measure rigidity and ergodicity of horospherical foliations, especially in higher rank. Both theorems are new even for relatively Anosov groups. First, we establish a higher rank…
We establish a new functional central limit theorem result for non-invertible measure preserving maps that are not necessarily ergodic, using the Perron-Frobenius operator. We apply the result to asymptotically periodic transformations and…
In this paper, building on previous work, we extend the thermodynamic formalism for random open dynamical systems generated by piecewise monotone interval maps with countably many branches. Under summable and contracting assumptions on the…
We prove various results connecting structural or algebraic properties of graphs and groups to conditions on their spaces of harmonic functions. In particular: we show that a group with a finitely supported symmetric measure has a…
Symbolic dynamical theory plays an important role in the research of amenability with a countable group. Motivated by the deep results of Dougall and Sharp, we study the group extensions for topologically mixing random shifts of finite…
