We give a necessary and sufficient condition on beta of the natural extension of a beta-shift, so that any equilibrium measure for a function of bounded total oscillations is a weak Gibbs measure.
We investigate the equilibration of an isolated macroscopic quantum system in the sense that deviations from a steady state become unmeasurably small for the overwhelming majority of times within any sufficiently large time interval. The…
We consider a one dimensional affine switched system obtained from a formal limit of a two dimensional linear system. We show this is equivalent to minimising the average digit in beta representations with unrestricted digits. We give a…
The $\beta$-shift is the transformation from the unit interval to itself that maps $x$ to the fractional part of $\beta x$. Permutations realized by the relative order of the elements in the orbits of these maps have been studied for…
In [Mas82] and [Vee78] it was proved independently that almost every interval exchange transformation is uniquely ergodic. The Birkhoff ergodic theorem implies that these maps mainly have uniformly distributed orbits. This raises the…
Let $X = \mathcal{A}^{\mathbb{Z}^d}$, where $d \geq 1$ and $\mathcal{A}$ is a finite set, equipped with the action of the shift map. For a given continuous potential $\phi: \mathcal{A}^{\mathbb{Z}^d} \to \mathbb{R}$ and $\beta>0$ (``inverse…
We study the equilibration properties of isolated ergodic quantum systems initially prepared in a cat state, i.e a macroscopic quantum superposition of states. Our main result consists in showing that, even though decoherence is at work in…
We determine the structure of the set of intermediate $\beta$-shifts of finite type. Specifically, we show that this set is dense in the parameter space $\Delta = \{ (\beta, \alpha) \in \mathbb{R}^{2} \colon \beta \in (1, 2) \; \text{and}…
For any $\beta > 1$, let $T_\beta: [0,1)\rightarrow [0,1)$ be the $\beta$-transformation defined by $T_\beta x=\beta x \mod 1$. We study the uniform recurrence properties of the orbit of a point under the $\beta$-transformation to the point…
We prove robustness and uniqueness of equilibrium states for a class of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms with dominated splittings and H\"older continuous potentials with not very large oscillation.
We consider the uniqueness of equilibrium states for dynamical systems that satisfy certain weak, non-uniform versions of specification, expansivity, and the Bowen property at a fixed scale. Following Climenhaga-Thompson's approach which…
In how far does an non-equilibrium initial ensemble evolve towards a stationary long time behavior for an isolated macroscopic quantum system? We demonstrate that deviations from a steady state indeed become unmeasurably small or…
We show that every intermediate $\beta$-transformation is topologically conjugate to a greedy $\beta$-transformation with a hole at zero, and provide a counterexample illustrating that the correspondence is not one-to-one. This…
We consider equilibrium states (that is, shift-invariant Gibbs measures) on the configuration space $S^{\mathbb{Z}^d}$ where $d\geq 1$ and $S$ is a finite set. We prove that if an equilibrium state for a shift-invariant uniformly summable…
We focus on the relationships between matching and subshift of finite type for intermediate $\beta$-transformations $T_{\beta,\alpha}(x)=\beta x+\alpha $ ($\bmod$ 1), where $x\in[0,1]$ and $(\beta,\alpha) \in \Delta:= \{ (\beta, \alpha) \in…
Interval exchange transformations are typically uniquely ergodic maps and therefore have uniformly distributed orbits. Their degree of uniformity can be measured in terms of the star-discrepancy. Few examples of interval exchange…
The beta transformation is the iterated map $\beta x\,\mod1$; it generates the base-$\beta$ expansion of a real number x. Every iterated piece-wise monotonic map is topologically conjugate to the beta transformation. For all but a countable…
Spontaneous symmetry-breaking in phase transitions occurs when the system Hamiltonian is symmetric under a certain transformation, but the equilibrium states observed in nature are not. Here, we prove that when a discrete symmetry is…
A criterion for unique ergodicity for points of a curve in the space of interval exchange transformation is given.
We show that the robustly transitive diffeomorphisms constructed by Bonatti and Viana have unique equilibrium states for natural classes of potentials. In particular, we characterize the SRB measure as the unique equilibrium state for a…
