In this paper, we prove that ergodic point processes with moments of all orders, driven by particular infinite measure preserving transformations, have to be a superposition of shifted Poisson processes. This rigidity result has a lot of…

Shift spaces with the specification property are intrinsically ergodic, i.e. they have a unique measure of maximal entropy. This can fail for shifts with the weaker almost specification property. We define a new property called one-sided…

We survey recent results regarding the study of dynamical properties of the space of positive definite functions and characters of higher rank lattices. These results have several applications to ergodic theory, topological dynamics,…

Let $\Gamma$ be an amenable countable discrete group. Fix an ergodic free nonsingular action of $\Gamma$ on a nonatomic standard probability space. Let $G$ be a compactly generated locally compact second countable group such that the…

We study, analytically and numerically, a simple $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric tight-binding ring with an onsite energy $a$ at the gain and loss sites. We show that if $a\neq 0$, the system generically exhibits an unbroken…

This is a survey article with focus on the following problem. Given $f:X \to X$ a meromorphic endomorphism of some compact K\"ahler manifold $X$, construct and study - under natural numerical conditions - a canonical invariant probability…

In this paper we show that the natural action of the symmetric group acting on the product space $\{0, 1 \}^{\mathbb{N}} $ endowed with a symmetric measure is approximately transitive. We also extend the result to a larger class of…

We give examples of $L^{1}$-functions that are essentially unbounded on every nonempty open subset of their domains of definition. We obtain such functions as limits of weighted sums of functions with the unboundedly increasing number of…

We study the heterotic string compactified on K3 x T^2 near the line T=U, where the effective action becomes singular due to an SU(2) gauge symmetry enhancement. By `integrating in' the light W^\pm vector multiplets we derive a quantum…

We consider vector fields $X$ on a closed manifold $M$ with rest points of Morse type. For such vector fields we define the property of exponential growth. A cohomology class $\xi\in H^1(M;\mathbb R)$ which is Lyapunov for $X$ defines…

Any ergodic measure of a smooth map on a compact manifold has a multifractal spectrum with one point - the dimension of the measure itself - at the diagonal. We will construct examples where this fails in the most drastic way for invariant…

We study the spectral properties of a rank-one multiplicative perturbation of a unitary matrix, a model introduced by Fyodorov. Building upon earlier results by Forrester and Ipsen, we provide a direct proof that the eigenvalues converge to…

Let T be a free ergodic measure-preserving action of an abelian group G on (X,mu). The crossed product algebra R_T has two distinguished masas, the image C_T of L^infty(X,mu) and the algebra S_T generated by the image of G. We conjecture…

Let G be a non-elementary group of isometries of a proper CAT(0)-space with limit set L. We survey properties of the action of G on L under the assumption that G contains a rank-one element. Among others, we show that there is a dense orbit…

We give a spectral description of the semi-classical Schrodinger operator with a piecewise linear, complex valued potential. Moreover, using these results, we show how an arbitrarily small bounded perturbation of a non-self-adjoint operator…

Given a self-adjoint operator H, a self-adjoint trace class operator V and a fixed Hilbert-Schmidt operator F with trivial kernel and co-kernel, using limiting absorption principle an explicit set of full Lebesgue measure is defined such…

We introduce a family of adic transformations on diagrams that are nonstationary and nonsimple. This family includes some previously studied adic transformations. We relate the dimension group of each these diagrams to the dynamical system…

We give conditions that characterize the existence of an absolutely continuous invariant probability measure for a degree one $C^2$ endomorphism of the circle which is bimodal, such that all its periodic orbits are repelling, and such that…

The origin of spectral singularities in finite-gap singly periodic PT-symmetric quantum systems is investigated. We show that they emerge from a limit of band-edge states in a doubly periodic finite gap system when the imaginary period…

We prove that for infinite rank-one transformations satisfying a property called "partial boundedness," the only commuting transformations are powers of the original transformation. This shows that a large class of infinite…
