The unitary $N = 2$ superconformal minimal models have a long history in string theory and mathematical physics, while their non-unitary (and logarithmic) cousins have recently attracted interest from mathematicians. Here, we give an…

A Polish group $G$ has the generic point property if any minimal $G$-flow admits a comeager orbit, or equivalently if the universal minimal flow (UMF) does. The class $\mathsf{GPP}$ of such Polish groups is a proper extension of the class…

We consider sets in $\mathbb R^N$ which minimise, for fixed volume, the sum of the perimeter and a non-local term given by the double integral of a kernel $g:\mathbb R^N\setminus\{0\}\to \mathbb R^+$. We establish some general existence and…

This paper considers the problem of minimal control inputs to affect the system states such that the resulting system is structurally controllable. This problem and the dual problem of minimal observability are claimed to have no…

We initiate a study of definable topological dynamics for groups definable in metastable theories. Specifically, we consider the special linear group $G = SL_2$ with entries from $M = \mathbb{C}((t))$; the field of formal Laurent series…

In the study of some dynamical systems the limsup set of a sequence of measurable sets is often of interest. The shrinking targets and recurrence are two of the most commonly studied problems that concern limsup sets. However, the zero-one…

In this paper we investigate some connections between Topological Dynamics, the theory of G-Principal Bundles, and the theory of Locally Trivial Groupoids.

The structure of invariant regions and globally attracting regions is fundamental to understanding the dynamical properties of reaction network models. We describe an explicit construction of the minimal invariant regions and minimal…

In his seminal 1967 paper "Disjointness in ergodic theory, minimal sets, and a problem in Diophantine approximation" Furstenberg introduced the notion of disjointness of dynamical systems, both topological and measure preserving. In this…

Let $G$ be a countable discrete group. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a transitive $G$-system to be disjoint with all minimal $G$-systems, which implies that if a transitive $G$-system is disjoint with all minimal…

We describe new universality classes associated to generic higher character Lifshitz critical behaviors for systems with arbitrary short range competing interactions. New renormalization-group arguments are proposed for anisotropic and…

We give a generalisation of the Lenstra-Lenstra-Lov\'asz (LLL) lattice-reduction algorithm that is valid for an arbitrary (split, semisimple) reductive group $G$. This can be regarded as `lattice reduction with symmetries'. We make this…

Call a group action on a topological space \emph{biminimal} if for any points $x,y\in X$ there exists a group element taking $x$ arbitrarily close to $y$ and whose inverse takes $y$ arbitrarily close to $x$. A symbolic encoding of the…

Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a countably infinite group of unitary operators on a complex separable Hilbert space $H$. Let $X = \{x_{1},...,x_{r}\}$ and $Y = \{y_{1},...,y_{s}\}$ be finite subsets of $H$, $r < s$, $V_{0} = \bar{span}…

Equationally compact subgroups of countable groups were introduced by Banaschewski. For all known cases the orbit closure of such a subgroup is a countable subset in the space of subgroups and has finite Cantor-Bendixson rank. We show that…

We consider Smale spaces, a particular class of hyperbolic topological dynamical systems, which include the basic sets for Smale's Axiom A systems. We present a homology theory for such systems which is based on the dimension group in the…

The first part of these notes give an introduction to the theory of Polish group actions on compact Hausdorff spaces, leading up to a proof of the Kechris-Pestov-Todorcevic correspondence and discussions of properties of universal minimal…

In this note we give some new results concerning the subgroup commutativity degree of a finite group $G$. These are obtained by considering the minimum of subgroup commutativity degrees of all sections of $G$.

Pointwise minimum norm control laws for hybrid dynamical systems are proposed. Hybrid systems are given by differential equations capturing the continuous dynamics or flows, and by difference equations capturing the discrete dynamics or…

We develop in this paper some general techniques to analyze action sets of small doubling for probability measure-preserving actions of amenable groups. As an application of these techniques, we prove a dynamical generalization of Kneser's…
