Motivated by Furstenberg's Theorem on sets in the circle invariant under multiplication by a non-lacunary semigroup, we define a general class of dynamical systems possessing similar topological dynamical properties. We call such systems…

We present a unified approach to extensions of Bourgain's Double Recurrence Theorem and Bourgain's Return Times Theorem to integer parts of the Kronecker sequence, emphasizing stopping times and metric entropy. Specifically, we prove the…

The classical Erd\H{o}s-Ginzburg-Ziv constant of a group $G$ denotes the smallest positive integer $\ell$ such that any sequence $S$ of length at least $\ell$ contains a zero-sum subsequence of length $\exp(G)$. In a recent paper, Caro and…

We study the ratio ergodic theorem (RET) of Hopf for group actions. Under a certain technical condition, if a sequence of sets {F_n} in a group satisfy the RET, then there is a finite set E such that {EF_n} satisfies the Besicovitch…

We study the convergence properties of the conditional (Kullback-Leibler) entropy in stochastic systems. We have proved very general results showing that asymptotic stability is a necessary and sufficient condition for the monotone…

We establish a $p$-adic analogue of a recent significant result of Ren-Wang (arXiv:2308.08819) on Furstenberg sets in the Euclidean plane. Building on the $p$-adic version of the high-low method from Chu (arXiv:2510.20104), we analyze…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring. We characterize when its completion has an isolated singularity, thereby strengthening the Dao-Takahashi refinement of the Auslander-Huneke-Leuschke-Wiegand theorem. We investigate the ascent…

A $(k,m)$-Furstenberg set is a subset $S \subset \mathbb{F}_q^n$ with the property that each $k$-dimensional subspace of $\mathbb{F}_q^n$ can be translated so that it intersects $S$ in at least $m$ points. Ellenberg and Erman proved that…

This paper provides a complete proof of Simon-Lukic conjecture for orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle. For a probability measure $d\mu = w(\theta) \frac{d\theta}{2\pi} + d\mu_s$ with Verblunsky coefficients…

Ergodic properties of the signal-filtering pair are studied for continuous time finite Markov chains, observed in white noise. The obtained law of large numbers is applied to the stability problem of the nonlinear filter with respect to…

We introduce the notions of over- and under-independence for weakly mixing and (free) ergodic measure preserving actions and establish new results which complement and extend the theorems obtained in [BoFW] and [A]. Here is a sample of…

Let $\theta$ be a finitely supported probability measure on $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$, and suppose that the semigroup generated by $\mathcal{G}:=\mathrm{supp}(\theta)$ is strongly irreducible and proximal. Let $\mu$ denote the Furstenberg…

In \cite{BAMU}, an ergodic theorem \`a la Birkhoff-von Neumann for the action of the fundamental group of a compact negatively curved manifold on the boundary of its universal cover is proved. A quick corollary is the irreducibility of the…

Let $(G,\mu)$ be a discrete group with a generating probability measure. Nevo shows that if $G$ has property (T) then there exists an $\epsilon>0$ such that the Furstenberg entropy of any $(G,\mu)$-stationary ergodic space is either zero or…

A construction due to Kn\"orrer shows that if $N$ is a maximal Cohen-Macaulay module over a hypersurface defined by $f+y^2$, then the first syzygy of $N/yN$ decomposes as the direct sum of $N$ and its own first syzygy. This was extended by…

We show that for families of measures on Euclidean space which satisfy an ergodic-theoretic form of "self-similarity" under the operation of re-scaling, the dimension of linear images of the measure behaves in a semi-continuous way. We…

In this paper, we extend Bourgain's double recurrence result to the Wiener-Wintner averages. Let $(X, \mathcal{F}, \mu, T)$ be a standard ergodic system. We will show that for any $f_1, f_2 \in L^\infty(X)$, the double recurrence…

In this paper we obtain an almost sure invariance principle for convergent sequences of either Anosov diffeomorphisms or expanding maps on compact Riemannian manifolds and prove an ergodic stability result for such sequences. The sequences…

The M\"obius disjointness conjecture of Sarnak states that the M\"obius function does not correlate with any bounded sequence of complex numbers arising from a topological dynamical system with zero topological entropy. We verify the…

We study the Furstenberg-entropy realization problem for stationary actions. It is shown that for finitely supported probability measures on free groups, any a-priori possible entropy value can be realized as the entropy of an ergodic…
