The notion of entropy appears in many fields and this paper is a survey about entropies in several branches of Mathematics. We are mainly concerned with the topological and the algebraic entropy in the context of continuous endomorphisms of…

Entropy rate is a real valued functional on the space of discrete random sources which lacks a closed formula even for subclasses of sources which have intuitive parameterizations. A good way to overcome this problem is to examine its…

In this paper, we propose a numerical investigation of topological interactions in flocking dynamics. Starting from a microscopic description of the phenomena, mesoscopic and macroscopic models have been previously derived under specific…

This paper is a survey about recent developments in the local entropy theory for topological dynamical systems and continuous group actions, with particular emphasis on the connections with other areas of dynamical systems and mathematics.

The notion of $\Delta$-weakly mixing set is introduced, which shares similar properties of weakly mixing sets. It is shown that if a dynamical system has positive topological entropy, then the collection of $\Delta$-weakly mixing sets is…

We show that, for countable sofic groups, a Bernoulli action with infinite entropy base has infinite entropy with respect to every sofic approximation sequence. This builds on the work of Lewis Bowen in the case of finite entropy base and…

In the current paper we attempt to transfer the notion of the projectional entropy, originally defined for multidimensional subshifts, to the case of actions of amenable groups. The main theorem states that if a system is strongly…

This chapter presents some of the links between automata theory and symbolic dynamics. The emphasis is on two particular points. The first one is the interplay between some particular classes of automata, such as local automata and results…

We study the receptive metric entropy for semigroup actions on probability spaces, inspired by a similar notion of topological entropy introduced by Hofmann and Stoyanov. We analyze its basic properties and its relation with the classical…

We construct p.m.p. group actions that are not local-global limits of sequences of finite graphs. Moreover, they do not weakly contain any sequence of finite labeled graphs. Our methods are based on the study of almost automorphisms of…

For \Gamma a countable amenable group consider those actions of \Gamma as measure-preserving transformations of a standard probability space, written as {T_\gamma}_{\gamma \in \Gamma} acting on (X,{\cal F}, \mu). We say…

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…

The purpose of this paper is to generalize the variational principle, which states that the topological entropy is equal to the supremum of the measure theoretical entropies and also the minimum of the metric theoretical entropies, to…

We consider continuous, translation-commuting transformations of compact, translation-invariant families of mappingsfrom finitely generated groups into finite alphabets. It is well-known that such transformations and spaces can be described…

We compute an explicit representation of the (topological) automorphism group or a particular Toeplitz subshift. The automorphism group is a (non-finitely generated) subgroup of rational numbers under addition and the shift map corresponds…

We study approximation schemes for shift spaces over a finite alphabet using (pseudo)metrics connected to Ornstein's $\bar{d}$ metric. This leads to a class of shift spaces we call $\bar{d}$-approachable. A shift space…

Let $f : X\to X$ be a dominating meromorphic map on a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ of dimension $k$. We extend the notion of topological entropy $h^l_{\mathrm{top}}(f)$ for the action of $f$ on (local) analytic sets of dimension $0\leq l…

We consider topological dynamical systems given by skew products $S\rtimes_{\tau} T$, where $S\colon Y\to Y$ is a subshift, $\tau\colon Y\to\mathbb{Z}$ is a continuous cocycle, and $T$ is an arbitrary invertible topological system. For…

In this note we study a family of graphs of groups over arbitrary base graphs where all vertex groups are isomorphic to a fixed countable sofic group $G$, and all edge groups $H<G$ are such that the embeddings of $H$ into $G$ are identical…

Thermodynamics can be formulated in either of two approaches, the phenomenological approach, which refers to the macroscopic properties of systems, and the statistical approach, which describes systems in terms of their microscopic…
