We provide a purely topological characterisation of uniquely ergodic topological dynamical systems (TDSs) whose unique invariant measure is zero entropy loosely Bernoulli (following Ratner, we call such measures loosely Kronecker). At the…

It is shown that in a topological dynamical system with positive entropy, there is a measure-theoretically "rather big" set such that a multivariant version of mean Li-Yorke chaos happens on the closure of the stable or unstable set of any…

Akin and Kolyada in 2003 [E. Akin, S. Kolyada, Li-Yorke sensitivity, Nonlinearity 16 (2003) 1421 - 1433] introduced the notion of Li-Yorke sensitivity. They proved that every weak mixing system $(X, T)$, where $X$ is a compact metric space…

For every positive integer $n\geq 2$, we introduce the concept of measure-theoretic $n$-sensitivity for measure-theoretic dynamical systems via finite measurable partitions, and show that an ergodic system is measure-theoretically…

We characterize inverse limits of nilsystems in topological dynamics, via a structure theorem for topological dynamical systems that is an analog of the structure theorem for measure preserving systems. We provide two applications of the…

In this paper we prove a new Myers' type diameter estimate on a complete connected Reimannian manifold which admits a bounded vector field such that the Bakry-\'Emery Ricci tensor has a positive lower bound. The result is sharper than…

The famous Erd\H{o}s-Rademacher problem asks for the smallest number of $r$-cliques in a graph with the given number of vertices and edges. Despite decades of active attempts, the asymptotic value of this extremal function for all $r$ was…

We answer several questions of P. Erdos and R. Graham by showing that for any rational number r > 0, there exist integers n1, n2, ..., nk, k variable, where N < n1 < n2 < ... < nk < (e^r + o_r(1) ) N, such that r = 1/n1 + 1/n2 + ... + 1/nk.…

This article is devoted to study which conditions imply that a topological dynamical system is mean sensitive and which do not. Among other things we show that every uniquely ergodic, mixing system with positive entropy is mean sensitive.…

We use homotopy theory to extend the notion of strong and weak topological insulators to the non-stable regime (low numbers of occupied/empty energy bands). We show that for strong topological insulators in d spatial dimensions to be "truly…

It is shown that any non-PI minimal system is Li-Yorke sensitive. Consequently, any minimal system with nontrivial weakly mixing factor (such a system is non-PI) is Li-Yorke sensitive, which answers affirmatively an open question by Akin…

We give the first super-polynomial (in fact, mildly exponential) lower bounds for tolerant testing (equivalently, distance estimation) of monotonicity, unateness, and juntas with a constant separation between the "yes" and "no" cases.…

Quasi-periodic cocycles with a diophantine frequency and with values in SL(2,R) are shown to be almost reducible as long as they are close enough to a constant, in the topology of k times differentiable functions, with k great enough.…

Sensitivity is a prominent aspect of chaotic behavior of a dynamical system. We study the relevance of nonsensitivity to fixed point theory in affine dynamical systems. We prove a fixed point theorem which extends Ryll-Nardzewski's theorem…

We propose to use orthologic as the basis for designing type systems supporting intersection, union, and negation types in the presence of subtyping assumptions. We show how to extend orthologic to support monotonic and antimonotonic…

Starting from the classical Saltzman 2D convection equations, we derive via a severe spectral truncation a minimal 10 ODE system which includes the thermal effect of viscous dissipation. Neglecting this process leads to a dynamical system…

A number of relations between the Kaplan-Yorke dimension, phase space contraction, transport coefficients and the maximal Lyapunov exponents are given for dissipative thermostatted systems, subject to a small external field in a…

We investigate the existence of weak solutions to a certain system of partial differential equations, modelling the behaviour of a compressible non-Newtonian fluid for small Reynolds number. We construct the weak solutions despite the lack…

We obtain the following embedding theorem for symbolic dynamical systems. Let $G$ be a countable amenable group with the comparison property. Let $X$ be a strongly aperiodic subshift over $G$. Let $Y$ be a strongly irreducible shift of…

We give conditions under which nonuniformly expanding maps exhibit lower bounds of polynomial type for the decay of correlations and for a large class of observables. We show that if the Lasota-Yorke type inequality for the transfer…
