We prove that the lamplighter group admits strongly aperiodic SFTs, has undecidable tiling problem, and the entropies of its SFTs are exactly the upper semicomputable nonnegative real numbers, and some other results. These results follow…

We focus on the relationships between matching and subshift of finite type for intermediate $\beta$-transformations $T_{\beta,\alpha}(x)=\beta x+\alpha $ ($\bmod$ 1), where $x\in[0,1]$ and $(\beta,\alpha) \in \Delta:= \{ (\beta, \alpha) \in…

The back-and-forth relations $M\leq_\alpha N$ are central to computable structure theory and countable model theory. It is well-known that the relation $\{(M,N) : M \leq_\alpha N\}$ is (lightface) $\Pi^0_{2\alpha}$. We show that this is…

We introduce a notion of parity for formal morphisms between invertible objects and use it to prove a corresponding coherence theorem. Parity is conceptually similar to the sign of underlying permutations, but not defined as such. To give…

This paper establishes the exact comparison complexity of finding an element repeated $n$ times in a $2n$-element array containing $n+1$ distinct values, under the equality-comparison model with $O(1)$ extra space. We present a simple…

We consider shift spaces in which elements of the alphabet may overlap nontransitively. We define a notion of entropy for such spaces, give several techniques for computing lower bounds for it, and show that it is equal to a limit of…

The classical pattern matching asks for locating all occurrences of one string, called the pattern, in another, called the text, where a string is simply a sequence of characters. Due to the potential practical applications, it is desirable…

This paper considers the problem of characterizing the simplest discrete point sets that are aperiodic, using invariants based on topological dynamics. A Delone set whose patch-counting function N(T), for radius T, is finite for all T is…

Partial rigidity is a quantitative notion of recurrence and provides a global obstruction which prevents the system from being strongly mixing. A dynamical system $(X, \mathcal{X}, \mu, T)$ is partially rigid if there is a constant $\delta…

We develop a new theory of maximizing sets in dynamical systems, for the study of ergodic optimization in systems with weak hyperbolicity but where the Ma\~n\'e cohomology lemma does not hold. This leads to new solutions of the Typical…

We consider a two-parameter family of random substitutions and show certain combinatorial and topological properties they satisfy. We establish that they admit recognisable words at every level. As a consequence, we get that the subshifts…

Exact pattern matching in labeled graphs is the problem of searching paths of a graph $G=(V,E)$ that spell the same string as the given pattern $P[1..m]$. This basic problem can be found at the heart of more complex operations on variation…

Transitive consistency is an intrinsic property for collections of linear invertible transformations between Euclidean coordinate frames. In practice, when the transformations are estimated from data, this property is lacking. This work…

In 2002, Kamae and Zamboni introduced maximal pattern complexity and determined that any aperiodic sequence must have maximal pattern complexity at least $2k$. In 2006, Kamae and Rao examined the maximal pattern complexity of sequences over…

This paper deals with classes of (de)stabilizing switching signals for switched systems. Most of the available conditions for stability of switched systems are sufficient in nature, and consequently, their violation does not conclude…
