For $G$ a closed subgroup of $S_{\infty}$, we provide an explicit characterization of the greatest $G$-ambit. Using this, we provide a precise characterization of when $G$ has metrizable universal minimal flow. In particular, each such…

In this paper we study the dynamics of Bernoulli flows and their subflows over general countable groups from the symbolic and topological perspectives. We study free subflows (subflows in which every point has trivial stabilizer), minimal…

A function $f:N\rightarrow N$ is sublinear, if \[\lim_{x\rightarrow +\infty}\frac{f(x)}{x}=0.\] If $A$ is an Abelian group, $G$ is a graph and $\phi$ is an $A$-flow in $G$, then let $N(\phi)$ be the nullity of $\phi$, that is, the set of…

Suppose X is an n-tuple of selfadjoint elements in a tracial von Neumann algebra M. If z is a selfadjoint element in M and for some selfadjoint element y in the von Neumann algebra generated by X $\delta_0(y, z) < \delta_0(y) +…

Consider a totally disconnected group G, which is covirtually cyclic, i.e., contains a normal compact open subgroup L such that G/L is infinite cyclic. We establish a Wang sequence, which computes the algebraic K-groups of the Hecke algebra…

We say that a countable discrete group $G$ is {\em almost Ornstein} if for every pair of standard non-two-atom probability spaces $(K,\kappa), (L,\lambda)$ with the same Shannon entropy, the Bernoulli shifts $G \cc (K^G,\kappa^G)$ and $G…

Given a countable group $G$, we say that a metrizable flow $Y$ is model-universal if by considering the various invariant measures on $Y$, we can recover every free measure-preserving $G$-system up to isomorphism. Weiss has constructed a…

It is shown that a countable symmetric multiplicative subgroup $G=-H\cup H$ with $H\subset\mathbb{R}_+^\ast$ is the group of self-similarities of a Gaussian-Kronecker flow if and only if $H$ is additively $\mathbb{Q}$-independent. In…

Let $G$ be a locally compact Polish group. A metrizable $G$-flow $Y$ is called model-universal if by considering the various invariant probability measures on $Y$, we can recover every free action of $G$ on a standard Lebesgue space up to…

In this note, we prove that if G is a countable group that contains a nonabelian free subgroup then every pair of nontrivial Bernoulli shifts over G are weakly isomorphic.

Let $A$ be the ring of elements in an algebraic function field $K$ over a finite field $F_q$ which are integral outside a fixed place $\infty$. In an earlier paper we have shown that the Drinfeld modular group $G=GL_2(A)$ has automorphisms…

We consider the volume-normalized Ricci flow close to compact shrinking Ricci solitons. We show that if a compact Ricci soliton $(M,g)$ is a local maximum of Perelman's shrinker entropy, any normalized Ricci flow starting close to it exists…

This is a continuation of the research in [16]. Let $(\overline{M},g_{-1})$ be a closed geodesic $r_0$-ball in the hyperbolic space $(\mathbb{H}^n,g_{-1})$. Let $m\neq1$ be a positive constant. In this paper, we show that for $n\geq3$,…

We generalize Berg's notion of quasi-disjointness to actions of countable groups and prove that every measurably distal system is quasi-disjoint from every measure preserving system. As a corollary we obtain easy to check necessary and…

Let $G$ be a connected, simply connected nilpotent Lie group, identified with a real algebraic subgroup of $\mathrm{UT}(n,\mathbb{R})$, and let $\Gamma$ be a lattice in $G$, with $\pi:G\to G/\Gamma$ the quotient map. For a semi-algebraic…

We first improve an old result of McMahon and show that a metric minimal flow whose enveloping semigroup contains less than $2^{\mathfrak{c}}$ (where ${\mathfrak{c}} ={2^{\aleph_0}}$) minimal left ideals is PI. Then we show the existence of…

Let $G$ be a connected nilpotent Lie group. Given probability-preserving $G$-actions $(X_i,\Sigma_i,\mu_i,u_i)$, $i=0,1,...,k$, and also polynomial maps $\phi_i:\mathbb{R}\to G$, $i=1,...,k$, we consider the trajectory of a joining…

We compare self-joining- and embeddability properties. In particular, we prove that a measure preserving flow $(T_t)_{t\in\mathbb{R}}$ with $T_1$ ergodic is 2-fold quasi-simple (2-fold distally simple) if and only if $T_1$ is 2-fold…

We show that any open set that is a finite distance away from a Lipschitz subgraph will become a Lipschitz subgraph after flowing under fractional mean curvature flow for a finite, universal time. Our proof is quantitative and inherently…

Veech's Theorem claims that if $G$ is a locally compact\,(LC) Hausdorff topological group, then it may act freely on $G^{\textrm{LUC}}$. We prove Veech's Theorem for $G$ being only locally quasi-totally bounded, not necessarily LC. And we…
