For a large class of transitive non-hyperbolic systems, we construct nonhyperbolic ergodic measures with entropy arbitrarily close to its maximal possible value. The systems we consider are partially hyperbolic with one-dimension central…
In this note we prove that Moebius orthogonality does not hold for subshifts of finite type with positive topological entropy. This, in particular, shows that all $C^{1+\alpha}$ surface diffeomorphisms with positive entropy correlate with…
One of the fundamental results of ergodic optimization asserts that for any dynamical system on a compact metric space with the specification property and for a generic continuous function $f$ every invariant probability measure that…
We prove that fully oscillating sequences are orthogonal to multiple ergodic realizations of affine maps of zero entropy on compact abelian groups. It is more than what Sarnak's conjecture requires for these dynamical systems.
We consider ergodic series of the form $\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n f(T^n x)$ where $f$ is an integrable function with zero mean value with respect to a $T$-invariant measure $\mu$. Under certain conditions on the dynamical system $T$, the…
In this paper we study ergodic theory of countable Markov shifts. These are dynamical systems defined over non-compact spaces. Our main result relates the escape of mass, the measure theoretic entropy, and the entropy at infinity of the…
We show that the absolutely normalized, symmetric Birkhoff sums of positive integrable functions in infinite, ergodic systems never converge pointwise even though they may be almost surely bounded away from zero and infinity.
We prove inequalities relating the measures of maximal entropy of two patterns u,v where the extender set of u is contained in the extender set of v. Our main results are two generalizations of a Theorem of Meyerovitch; the first applies to…
Let $\Gamma$ be a sofic group with a copy of $\mathbb{Z}$ in its center. We construct an uncountable family of pairwise nonisomorphic measure-preserving $\Gamma$ actions with completely positive entropy, none of which is a factor of a…
It is shown that Sarnak's M\"{o}bius orthogonality conjecture is fulfilled for the compact metric dynamical systems for which every invariant measure has singular spectra. This is accomplished by first establishing a special case of Chowla…
We completely solve ergodic optimization of a full shift with an uncountable alphabet $[0,1]$, which is one of the most well-known examples of infinite dimensional dynamical systems with positive mean dimension (and thus with infinite…
For an ergodic hyperbolic measure $\omega$ of a $C^{1+{\alpha}}$ diffeomorphism, there is an $\omega$ full-measured set $\tilde\Lambda$ such that every nonempty, compact and connected subset $V$ of $\mathbb{M}_{inv}(\tilde\Lambda)$…
In this paper, we show that for any sequence ${\bf a}=(a_n)_{n\in \Z}\in \{1,\ldots,k\}^\mathbb{Z}$ and any $\epsilon>0$, there exists a Toeplitz sequence ${\bf b}=(b_n)_{n\in \Z}\in \{1,\ldots,k\}^\mathbb{Z}$ such that the entropy $h({\bf…
A subshift with linear block complexity has at most countably many ergodic measures, and we continue of the study of the relation between such complexity and the invariant measures. By constructing minimal subshifts whose block complexity…
Assuming Sarnak conjecture is true for any singular dynamical process, we prove that the spectral measure of the M\"{o}bius function is equivalent to Lebesgue measure. Conversely, under Elliott conjecture, we establish that the M\"{o}bius…
A remarkable theorem of Besicovitch is that an integrable function $f$ on $\mathbb{R}^2$ is strongly differentiable if and only if its associated strong maximal function $M_S f$ is finite a.e. We provide an analogue of Besicovitch's result…
We study the entropy and Lyapunov exponents of invariant measures $\mu$ for smooth surface diffeomorphisms $f$, as functions of $(f,\mu)$. The main result is an inequality relating the discontinuities of these functions. One consequence is…
We give explicit $C^1$-open conditions that ensure that a diffeomorphism possesses a nonhyperbolic ergodic measure with positive entropy. Actually, our criterion provides the existence of a partially hyperbolic compact set with…
Sarnak's M\"obius disjointness conjecture states that M\"obius function is disjoint to any zero entropy dynamics. We prove that M\"obius disjointness conjecture holds for one-frequency analytic quasi-periodic cocycles which are almost…
We prove that the entropy map for countable Markov shifts of finite entropy is upper semi-continuous at ergodic measures. Note that the phase space is non-compact. Applications to systems that can be coded by these shifts, such as positive…
