This article discusses two recent works by the author, one with Brown and Hurtado on Zimmer's conjecture and one with Bader, Miller and Stover on totally geodesic submanifolds of real and complex hyperbolic manifolds. The main purpose of…

We consider a dynamical system with state space $M$, a smooth, compact subset of some ${\Bbb R}^n$, and evolution given by $T_t$, $x_t = T_t x$, $x \in M$; $T_t$ is invertible and the time $t$ may be discrete, $t \in {\Bbb Z}$, $T_t = T^t$,…

Stickiness is a well known phenomenon in which chaotic orbits expend an expressive amount of time in specific regions of the chaotic sea. This phenomenon becomes important when dealing with area-preserving open systems because, in this…

We present Veech's proof of Sarnak's theorem on the M\"{o}bius flow which say that there is a unique admissible measure on the M\"{o}bius flow. As a consequence, we obtain that Sarnak's conjecture is equivalent to Chowla conjecture with the…

We study a class of dynamical systems generated by random substitutions, which contains both intrinsically ergodic systems and instances with several measures of maximal entropy. In this class, we show that the measures of maximal entropy…

In finite-dimensional dynamical systems, stochastic stability provides the selection of physical relevant measures from the myriad invariant measures of conservative systems. That this might also apply to infinite-dimensional systems is the…

Let $(X,\mu)$ be a standard probability space. An automorphism $T$ of $(X,\mu)$ has the weak Pinsker property if for every $\varepsilon > 0$ it has a splitting into a direct product of a Bernoulli shift and an automorphism of entropy less…

Given a surface $M$ and a Borel probability measure $\nu$ on the group of $C^2$-diffeomorphisms of $M$, we study $\nu$-stationary probability measures on $M$. We prove for hyperbolic stationary measures the following trichotomy: either the…

We endow the set of all invariant measures of a topological dynamical system with a metric $\bar{\rho}$, which induces a topology stronger than the the weak$^*$-topology. Then, we study the closedness of ergodic measures within a…

The Chowla conjecture asserts that the values of the Liouville function form a normal sequence of plus and minus ones. Reinterpreted in the language of ergodic theory it asserts that the Liouville function is generic for the Bernoulli…

In this paper, we address the long time behaviour of solutions of the stochastic Schrodinger equation in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We prove the existence of an invariant measure and establish asymptotic compactness of solutions, implying in…

This is a continuation of the series of notes on the dynamics of quadratic polynomials. We show the following Rigidity Theorem: Any combinatorial class contains at most one quadratic polynomial satisfying the secondary limbs condition with…

In this article we show that any ergodic rigid system can be topologically realized by a uniformly rigid and (topologically) weak mixing topological dynamical system.

The focus of this paper is the phenomenon of rigidity for measure-preserving actions of countable discrete abelian groups and its interactions with weak mixing and recurrence. We prove that results about $\mathbb{Z}$-actions extend to this…

Let $\mu$ be a finitely supported probability measure on the group of automorphisms of $\mathbb{A}^2_\mathbb{C}$. If the group generated by the support of $\mu$ is non-elementary and contains only loxodromic elements, we show the existence…

We show that if $(X, \mu, T)$ is a probability measure-preserving dynamical system, and $\mathscr{P}$ is a countable partition of $(X, \mu)$, then the limit $$ \lim_{n, k \to \infty} \mathbb{E} \left[ \frac{1}{k} \sum_{j = 0}^{k - 1} f…

For a continuous map $T$ of a compact metrizable space $X$ with finite topological entropy, the order of accumulation of entropy of $T$ is a countable ordinal that arises in the context of entropy structure and symbolic extensions. We show…

We show that for any irrational number $\a$ and a sequence of integers $\{m_l\}_{l\in \N}$ such that $\displaystyle{\lim_{l\to \infty} \norm{m_l \a} = 0}$, there exists a continuous measure $\mu$ on the circle such that…

Consider a dynamical system $T:\mathbb{T}\times \mathbb{R}^{d} \rightarrow \mathbb{T}\times \mathbb{R}^{d} $ given by $ T(x,y) = (E(x), C(y) + f(x))$, where $E$ is a linear expanding map of $\mathbb{T}$, $C$ is a linear contracting map of…

Exploiting a construction of rigidity sequences for weakly mixing dynamical systems by Fayad and Thouvenot, we show that for every integers $p_{1},\dots,p_{r}$ there exists a continuous probability measure $\mu $ on the unit circle…
