In this article we prove the topological minimality of unions of several almost orthogonal planes of arbitrary dimensions. A particular case was proved in arXiv:1103.1468, where we proved the Almgren minimality (which is a weaker property…
We introduce a geometric invariant, called finite decomposition complexity (FDC), to study topological rigidity of manifolds. We prove for instance that if the fundamental group of a compact aspherical manifold M has FDC, and if N is…
We show that for every linear toral automorphism, especially the non-hyperbolic ones, the entropies of ergodic measures form a dense set on the interval from zero to the topological entropy.
Let $X$ be a projective smooth geometrically connected curve defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of cardinality $q$. Let $S$ be a finite set of closed points of $X$. Let $\bar{X}$ and $\bar{S}$ be the base change of $X$, $S$ to an…
This is a survey on known results and open problems about closed aspherical manifolds, i.e., connected closed manifolds whose universal coverings are contractible. Many examples come from certain kinds of non-positive curvature conditions.…
Suppose that \Delta, \Delta' are two buildings each arising from a semisimpe algebraic group over a field, a topological field in the former case, and that for both the buildings the Coxeter diagram has no isolated nodes. We give conditions…
We consider measurable and topological dynamical systems over locally compact abelian groups. Our main observation relates convergence of Wiener-Wintner type averages to eigenvalues of the dynamical system in question. As a consequence we…
The concept of a uniform set is introduced for an ergodic, measure-preserving transformation on a non-atomic, infinite Lebesgue space. The uniform sets exist as much as they generate the underlying $\sigma$-algebra. This leads to the result…
K\"ulshammer, K\"onig and Ovsienko proved that for any quasi-hereditary algebra $(A,\leq_A)$ there exists a Morita equivalent quasi-hereditary algebra $(R, \leq_R)$ containing a basic exact Borel subalgebra $B$. The obtained Borel…
We study the Borel-reducibility of isomorphism relations in the generalized Baire space $\kappa^\kappa$. In the main result we show for inaccessible $\kappa$, that if $T$ is a classifiable theory and $T'$ is superstable with the strong…
We study $C^1$-robustly transitive and nonhyperbolic diffeomorphisms having a partially hyperbolic splitting with one-dimensional central bundle whose strong un-/stable foliations are both minimal. {In dimension $3$, an important class of…
Let $\alpha: G\curvearrowright X$ be a minimal free continuous action of an infinite countable amenable group on an infinite compact metrizable space. In this paper, under the hypothesis that the invariant ergodic probability Borel measure…
We show that for every topological dynamical system with the approximate product property, zero topological entropy is equivalent to unique ergodicity. Equivalence of minimality is also proved under a slightly stronger condition. Moreover,…
We study two properties of nonsingular and infinite measure-preserving ergodic systems: weak double ergodicity, and ergodicity with isometric coefficients. We show that there exist infinite measure-preserving transformations that are…
In this paper we obtain a weak version of Lusin's theorem in the Sobolev-$(1,p)$ uniform closure of volume preserving Lipschitz homeomorphisms on closed and connected $d$-dimensional manifolds, $d \geq 2$ and $0<p<1$. With this result at…
Let $(X,d,f)$ be a topological dynamical system, where $(X,d)$ is a compact metric space and $f:X\to X$ is a continuous map. We define $n$-ordered empirical measure of $x\in X$ by \begin{align*}…
According to a conjecture of Lindenstrauss and Tsukamoto, a topological system $(X,T)$ embeds in the $d$-dimensional cubical shift $(([0,1]^d)^\mathbb{Z},$shift) if its mean dimension and periodic dimension verify mdim$(X,T)<d/2$ and…
The Kolmogorov entropy allows to split the dynamical systems that have equivalent continuous spectrum into non-isomorphic subclasses. In this paper we make an attempt to generalise the concept of entropy that will allow to split the systems…
For dynamical systems satisfying the approximate $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ or $\mathbb{Z}_+^{d}$-product property and asymptotically entropy expansiveness, we establish a precise description of the structure of their space of invariant measures. In…
The Ellis semigroup of a dynamical system $(X,T)$ is tame if every element is the limit of a sequence (as opposed to a net) of homeomorphisms coming from the $T$ action. This topological property is related to the cardinality of the…
