Let $a_n$ be the random increasing sequence of natural numbers which takes each value independently with probability $n^{-a}$, $0 < a < 1/2$, and let $p(n) = n^{1+\epsilon}$, $0 < \epsilon < 1$. We prove that, almost surely, for every…

As the second part of a series on linear cocycles over chaotic systems, this paper establishes a "multiple covering principle" that robustly yields positive-entropy ergodic measures supported on fiberwise uniformly bounded orbits. Using…

Let $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu)$ be a standard probability space. We give new fundamental results determining solutions to the coboundary equation: \begin{eqnarray*} f = g - g \circ T \end{eqnarray*} where $f \in L^p$ and $T$ is ergodic invertible…

We show that for any set $A \subset \mathbb{N}$ with positive upper density and any $\ell,m \in \mathbb{N}$, there exist an infinite set $B\subset \mathbb{N}$ and some $t\in \mathbb{N}$ so that $\{mb_1 + \ell b_2 \colon b_1,b_2\in B\…

We show that if $h\in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ is a polynomial of degree $k \geq 2$ such that $h(\mathbb{N})$ contains a multiple of $q$ for every $q\in \mathbb{N}$, known as an $\textit{intersective polynomial}$, then any subset of $\{1,2,\dots,N\}$…

Let $E$ be a subset of positive integers such that $E\cap\{1,2\}\ne\emptyset$. A weakly mixing finite measure preserving flow $T=(T_t)_{t\in\Bbb R}$ is constructed such that the set of spectral multiplicities (of the corresponding Koopman…

Let $(x_n)_{n\geq0}$ be a linear recurrence of order $k\geq2$ satisfying $$x_n=a_1x_{n-1}+a_2x_{n-2}+\dots+a_kx_{n-k}$$ for all integers $n\geq k$, where $a_1,\dots,a_k,x_0,\dots, x_{k-1}\in \mathbb{Z},$ with $a_k\neq0$. In [`The quotient…

We develop a robust structure theory for multiple ergodic averages of commuting transformations along Hardy sequences of polynomial growth. We then apply it to derive a number of novel results on joint ergodicity, recurrence and…

We say that $S\subset\mathbb Z$ is a set of $k$-recurrence if for every measure preserving transformation $T$ of a probability measure space $(X,\mu)$ and every $A\subseteq X$ with $\mu(A)>0$, there is an $n\in S$ such that $\mu(A\cap…

In this paper we introduce and explore the notion of rigidity group, associated with a collection of finitely many sequences, and show that this concept has many, somewhat surprising characterizations of algebraic, spectral, and unitary…

Let $(X,T)$ be a topological dynamical system with metric $d$. We define a new function $\overline{F}(x,y)=\limsup\limits_{n \to +\infty} \inf\limits_{\sigma \in S_n} \frac 1n \sum\limits_{k=1}^n d(T^k x,T^{\sigma(k)} y)$ by using…

In this note we consider autonomous SDEs admitting smooth invariant measures. We present a method in finding (almost everywhere) good bounds for $\sup \{\|X_t\|: t \in [0, T]\}$ for strong solutions $X_{\cdot}$ to such SDEs, which in many…

We provide a counterexample to a conjecture of Hildebrand which states that if $\S$ has positive lower density and is stable i.e. for all $d$, $n$ is in $\mathcal{S}$ if and only if $dn$ is in $\mathcal{S}$ except on a set of density $0$…

A measure $\mu$ on the unit circle $\mathbb{T}$ belongs to Steklov class $\mathcal{S}$ if its density $w$ with respect to the Lebesgue measure on $\mathbb{T}$ is strictly positive: $\inf_{\mathbb{T}} w > 0$. Let $\mu$, $\mu_{-1}$ be…
