Bowen showed that a continuous expansive map with specification has a unique measure of maximal entropy. We show that the conclusion remains true under weaker non-uniform versions of these hypotheses. To this end, we introduce the notions…

We consider some classes of piecewise expanding maps in finite dimensional spaces having invariant probability measures which are absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure. We derive an entropy formula for such measures and,…

We study damped hyperbolic equations on the infinite line. We show that on the global attracting set $G$ the $\epsilon$-entropy (per unit length) exists in the topology of $W^{1,\infty}$. We also show that the topological entropy per unit…

We establish a connection between barcode entropy and metric entropy. Namely, we show that the barcode entropy bounds the metric entropy from below for a measure from a specific class of invariant measures associated with a pair of…

The Sinai billiard map $T$ on the two-torus, i.e., the periodic Lorentz gas, is a discontinuous map. Assuming finite horizon, we propose a definition $h_*$ for the topological entropy of $T$. We prove that $h_*$ is not smaller than the…

We define a hierarchy of systems with topological completely positive entropy in the context of continuous countable amenable group actions on compact metric spaces. For each countable ordinal we construct a dynamical system on the…

Let A_E be the canonical AF subalgebra of a graph C*-algebra C*(E) associated with a locally finite directed graph E. For Brown-Voiculescu's topological entropy ht(\Phi_E) of the canonical completely positive map \Phi_E on C*(E),…

We introduce and study the barcode entropy for geodesic flows of closed Riemannian manifolds, which measures the exponential growth rate of the number of not-too-short bars in the Morse-theoretic barcode of the energy functional. We prove…

In the present paper, we introduce a natural extension of AKM-topological entropy for noncompact spaces and prove a variational principle which states that the topological entropy, the supremum of the measure theoretical entropies and the…

Null surfaces act as one-way membranes, blocking information from those observers who do not cross them (e.g., in the black hole and the Rindler spacetimes) and these observers associate an entropy (and temperature) with the null surface.…

We show that every dendrite satisfying the condition that no subtree of it contains all free arcs admits a transitive, even exactly Devaney chaotic map with arbitrarily small entropy. This gives a partial answer to a question of Baldwin…

For a totally disconnected locally compact abelian group, we prove that the topological entropy of a continuous endomorphism coincides with the algebraic entropy of the dual endomorphism with respect to the Pontryagin duality. Moreover,…

Barycentric algebras are an abstraction of the notion of convex sets, defined by a set of equations. We study semitopological and topological barycentric algebras, in the spirit of a previous study by Klaus Keimel on semitopological and…

E.D. Tymchatyn constructed a hereditarily locally connected continuum which can be approximated by a sequence of mutually disjoint arcs. We show the example re-opens a conjecture of G.T. Seidler and H. Kato about continua which admit…

We consider the differential entropy of probability measures absolutely continuous with respect to a given $\sigma$-finite reference measure on an arbitrary measurable space. We state the asymptotic equipartition property in this general…

Recently Bousso conjectured the entropy crossing a certain light-like hypersurface is bounded by the surface area. We point out a number of difficulties with this conjecture.

In this paper, we first prove that the topological entropy of induced map of any distal homeomorphism of a compact metric space is null. Then we consider induced map $2^f$ of an arbitrary pointwise periodic homeomorphism $f:X\to X$ of a…

We introduce a new measure of instability of area-preserving twist diffeomorphisms, which generalizes the notions of angle of splitting of separatrices, and flux through a gap of a Cantori. As an example of application, we establish a sharp…

A multi-parametric version of the nonadditive entropy $S_{q}$ is introduced. This new entropic form, denoted by $S_{a,b,r}$, possesses many interesting statistical properties, and it reduces to the entropy $S_q$ for $b=0$, $a=r:=1-q$ (hence…

Let $(X,\phi)$ be a compact flow without fixed points. We define the packing topological entropy $h_{\mathrm{top}}^P(\phi,K)$ on subsets of $X$ through considering all the possible reparametrizations of time. For fixed-point free flows, we…
