Let $\pi: (X,T)\rightarrow (Y,T)$ be a factor map of topological dynamics and $d\in {\mathbb {N}}$. $(Y,T)$ is said to be a $d$-step topological characteristic factor if there exists a dense $G_\delta$ set $X_0$ of $X$ such that for each…

For a topological dynamical system $(X, T)$, $l\in\mathbb{N}$ and $x\in X$, let $N_l(X)$ and $L_x^l(X)$ be the orbit closures of the diagonal point $(x,x,\ldots,x)$ ($l $ times) under the actions $\mathcal{G}_{l}$ and $\tau_l $…

We prove that the maximal infinite step pro-nilfactor $X_\infty$ of a minimal dynamical system $(X,T)$ is the topological characteristic factor in a certain sense. Namely, we show that by an almost one to one modification of $\pi:X…

Recently, Qiu, Xu, Ye and Yu proved that for product system of finitely many minimal systems, the maximal $\infty$-step pro-nilfactor of the system is the topological characteristic factor. In this paper, we extend the result to…

We characterize inverse limits of nilsystems in topological dynamics, via a structure theorem for topological dynamical systems that is an analog of the structure theorem for measure preserving systems. We provide two applications of the…

For any minimal system $(X,T)$ and $d\geq 1$ there is an associated minimal system $(N_{d}(X), \mathcal{G}_{d}(T))$, where $\mathcal{G}_{d}(T)$ is the group generated by $T\times\cdots\times T$ and $T\times T^2\times\cdots\times T^{d}$ and…

For minimal $\mathbb{Z}^{2}$-topological dynamical systems, we introduce a cube structure and a variation of the regionally proximal relation for $\mathbb{Z}^2$ actions, which allow us to characterize product systems and their factors. We…

We study topological factors of rank-one subshifts and prove that those factors that are themselves subshifts are either finite or isomorphic to the original rank-one subshifts. Thus, we completely characterize the subshift factors of…

In this paper, we develop several structure theorems concerning commuting transformations and minimal $\mathbb{R}$-flows. Specifically, we show that if $(X,S)$, $(X,T)$ are minimal systems with $S$ and $T$ being commutative, then they…

We study fibrations in the category of cubespaces/nilspaces. We show that a fibration of finite degree $f \colon X\rightarrow Y$ between compact ergodic gluing cubespaces (in particular nilspaces) factors as a (possibly countable) tower of…

The regionally proximal relation of order $d$ along arithmetic progressions, namely ${\bf AP}^{[d]}$ for $d\in \N$, is introduced and investigated. It turns out that if $(X,T)$ is a topological dynamical system with ${\bf AP}^{[d]}=\Delta$,…

We consider locally o-minimal structures possessing tame topological properties shared by models of DCTC and uniformly locally o-minimal expansions of the second kind of densely linearly ordered abelian groups. We derive basic properties of…

We construct examples of minimal and uniquely ergodic systems realizing all possible behaviors in the interplay of measurable and topological nilfactors. To build such examples, we adapt an idea that stems from Furstenberg's construction of…

The central goal of this thesis is to develop methods to experimentally study topological phases. We do so by applying the powerful toolbox of quantum simulation techniques with cold atoms in optical lattices. To this day, a complete…

We study dynamical systems with the property that all the nontrivial factors have infinite topological entropy (or, positive mean dimension). We establish an ``if and only if'' condition for this property among a typical class of dynamical…

A method of {\it topological grammars} is proposed for multidimensional data approximation. For data with complex topology we define a {\it principal cubic complex} of low dimension and given complexity that gives the best approximation for…

For strictly ergodic systems, we introduce the class of CF-Nil($k$) systems: systems for which the maximal measurable and maximal topological $k$-step pronilfactors coincide as measure-preserving systems. Weiss' theorem implies that such…

Definable topological groups whose topologies are affine have definable $\mathcal C^r$ structures in d-minimal expansions of ordered fields, where $r$ is a positive integer. We prove this fact using a new notion called partition degree of a…
