We associate each endomorphism of a finite cyclic group with a digraph and study many properties of this digraph, including its adjacent matrix and automorphism group.

A flow $(X,T)$ induces the flow $(2^X,T)$. Quasifactors are minimal subsystems of $(2^X, T)$ and hence orbit closures of almost periodic points for $(2^X, T)$. We study quasifactors via the almost periodic points for $(2^X,T)$.

Recently in joint work with E. Sert, we proved sharp boundedness results on discrete fractional integral operators along binary quadratic forms. Present work vastly enhances the scope of those results by extending boundedness to bivariate…

For a wide class of polynomially nonlinear systems of partial differential equations we suggest an algorithmic approach that combines differential and difference algebra to analyze s(trong)-consistency of finite difference approximations.…

A conforming finite element scheme with mixed explicit-implicit time discretization for quasi-incompressible Navier-Stokes-Maxwell-Stefan systems in a bounded domain with periodic boundary conditions is presented. The system consists of the…

In this article, we introduce an interesting topology-like concept concerning groups (and with almost the same method it can be defined for other algebraic systems). Given an arbitrary group $G$, we define a {\em topo-system} on $G$ as a…

Finite Lorentz groups acting on 4-dimensional vector spaces coordinatized by finite fields with a prime number of elements are represented as homomorphic images of countable, rational subgroups of the Lorentz group acting on real…

Thurston obtained a classification of individual surface homeomorphisms via the dynamics of the corresponding mapping class elements on Teichm\"uller space. In this paper we present certain extended versions of this, first, to random…

This is a survey article describing some recent results at the interface of homogeneous dynamics and Diophantine approximation.

Let $M$ be a $G$-manifold and $\om$ a $G$-invariant exact $m$-form on $M$. We indicate when these data allow us to constract a cocycle on a group $G$ with values in the trivial $G$-module $\mathbb R$ and when this cocycle is nontrivial.

We show that the (topological) full group of a minimal pseudogroup over the Cantor set satisfies various rigidity phenomena of topological dynamical and combinatorial nature. Our main result applies to its possible homomorphisms into other…

We give fully polynomial-time approximation schemes (FPTAS) for the partition function of ferromagnetic 2-spin systems in certain parameter regimes. The threshold we obtain is almost tight up to an integrality gap. Our technique is based on…

Within the Hamiltonian formulation of diffeomorphism invariant theories we address the problem of how to determine and how to reduce diffeomorphisms outside the identity component.

We show that loop groups and the universal cover of $\mathrm{Diff}_+(S^1)$ can be expressed as colimits of groups of loops/diffeomorphisms supported in subintervals of $S^1$. Analogous results hold for based loop groups and for the based…

Inspired by the connection between the Dodgson's condensation algorithm and Hirota's difference equation, we consider condensation algorithms for Pfaffians from the perspectives of discrete integrable systems. The discretisation of Pfaffian…

We outline a general procedure that builds classifying spaces for generalized Thompson groups $\Gamma$. The construction depends on a small number of choices: (1) an inverse semigroup $S$ of partial transformations that ``locally determine"…

We use a version of the Trotter-Kato approximation theorem for strongly continuous semigroups in order to study flows on growing networks. For that reason we use the abstract notion of direct limits in the sense of category theory.

We explain how to construct a morphism from the group of birational automorphisms of CP^2 preserving the logarithmic Poisson bracket to the Thompson group T. Than we give a linear representation of the former group, provide some information…

This paper derives some discrete maximum principles for $P1$-conforming finite element approximations for quasi-linear second order elliptic equations. The results are extensions of the classical maximum principles in the theory of partial…

We show that representations of the Thompson group $F$ in the automorphisms of a noncommutative probability space yield a large class of bilateral stationary noncommutative Markov processes. As a partial converse, bilateral stationary…
