We consider continuous maps of the interval which preserve the Lebesgue measure. Except for the identity map or $1 - \id$ all such maps have topological entropy at least $\log2/2$ and generically they have infinite topological entropy. In…

It is known that the topological entropy of a continuous interval map $f$ is positive if and only if the type of $f$ for Sharkovskii's order is $2^d p$ for some odd integer $p\ge 3$ and some $d\ge 0$; and in this case the topological…

We investigate linear parabolic maps on the torus. In a generic case these maps are non-invertible and discontinuous. Although the metric entropy of these systems is equal to zero, their dynamics is non-trivial due to folding of the image…

In this paper, we prove that for real analytic expanding circle maps, all optimizing measures of a real analytic potential function have zero entropy, unless the potential is cohomologous to constant. We use the group structure of the…

This paper provides an Open Mapping Theorem for topological modules over rings that have a zero sequence consisting of units. As an application it is shown that there is a unique complete and metrisable topology on finitely generated…

We prove that the entropy function on the moduli space of real quadratic rational maps is not monotonic by exhibiting a continuum of disconnected level sets. This entropy behavior is in stark contrast with the case of polynomial maps, and…

We consider a class $\mathcal{F}$ of Markov multi-maps on the unit interval. Any multi-map gives rise to a space of trajectories, which is a closed, shift-invariant subset of $[0,1]^{\mathbb{Z}_+}$. For a multi-map in $\mathcal{F}$, we show…

Extending our results in "Entropy conjecture for continuous maps of nilmanifolds", to appear in Israel Jour. of Math., we confirm that Entropy Conjecture holds for every continuous self-map of a compact $K(\pi,1)$ manifold with the…

We study the topological entropy of a two-parameter family of maps related to (a,b)-continued fraction algorithms and prove that it is constant on a square within the parameter space (two vertices of this square correspond to well-studied…

Let $f:\mathbb{CP}^2\dashrightarrow\mathbb{CP^2}$ be a rational map with algebraic and topological degrees both equal to $d\geq 2$. Little is known in general about the ergodic properties of such maps. We show here, however, that for an…

The relevance of the algebraic entropy in the study of birational discrete time dynamical systems highlights the need to relate it to other characteristics of these systems. In this letter, two complementary proofs are given that the…

Transitivity, the existence of periodic points and positive topological entropy can be used to characterize complexity in dynamical systems. It is known that for graphs that are not trees, for every $\varepsilon>0,$ there exist (complicate)…

In this paper we give a fully combinatorial description of the zero entropy periodic patterns on trees. Unlike previously known characterizations of such patterns, our criterion is independent of any particular topological realization of…

Let $X$ be a dendrite with set of endpoints $E(X)$ closed and let $f:~X \to X$ be a continuous map with zero topological entropy. Let $P(f)$ be the set of periodic points of $f$. We prove that if $L$ is an infinite $\omega$-limit set of $f$…

Let $C(\mathbf I)$ be the set of all continuous self-maps from ${\mathbf I}=[0,1]$ with the topology of uniformly convergence. A map $f\in C({\mathbf I})$ is called a transitive map if for every pair of non-empty open sets $U,V$ in…

We give a sufficient condition on totally disconnected topological graphs such that their associated topological graph algebras are purely infinite.

Given a connected, compact, totally geodesic submanifold Y^m of noncompact type inside a compact locally symmetric space of noncompact type X^n, we provide a sufficient condition that ensures that [Y^m] is nonzero in H_m(X^n; R); in low…

Groups of almost upper triangular infinite matrices with entries indexed by integers are studied. It is shown that, when the matrices are over a finite field, these groups admit a nondiscrete totally disconnected, locally compact group…

In this paper, we focus on some properties, calculations and estimations of topological entropy for a nonautonomous dynamical system $(X,f_{0,\infty})$ generated by a sequence of continuous self-maps $f_{0,\infty}=\{f_n\}_{n=0}^{\infty}$ on…

We use recent developments in local entropy theory to prove that chaos in dynamical systems implies the existence of complicated structure in the underlying space. Earlier Mouron proved that if $X$ is an arc-like continuum which admits a…
