Generalizing a result of Furstenberg, we show that for every infinite discrete group $G$, the Bernoulli flow $2^G$ is disjoint from every minimal $G$-flow. From this, we deduce that the algebra generated by the minimal functions…
The norm closure of the algebra generated by the set $\{n\mapsto {\lambda}^{n^k}:$ $\lambda\in{\mathbb {T}}$ and $k\in{\mathbb{N}}\}$ of functions on $({\mathbb {Z}}, +)$ was studied in \cite{S} (and was named as the Weyl algebra). In this…
In this article, we relate the dynamics of a flow $(X, T)$ with the dynamics of the induced flow $(E(X), T)$ where $E(X)$ is the enveloping semigroup of flow $(X, T)$. We establish that a flow $(X, T)$ is distal if and only if the induced…
We consider flows $(X,T)$, given by actions $(t, x) \to tx$, on a compact metric space $X$ with a discrete $T$ as an acting group. We study a new class of flows - the \textsc{Strongly Rigid} ($ \mathbf {SR} $) \ flows, that are properly…
We show that ergodic flows in noncommutative fully symmetric spaces (associated with a semifinite von Neumann algebra) generated by continuous semigroups of positive Dunford-Schwartz operators and modulated by bounded Besicovitch almost…
We prove ergodicity in a class of skew-product extensions of interval exchange transformations given by cocycles with logarithmic singularities. This, in particular, gives explicit examples of ergodic $\mathbb{R}$-extensions of minimal…
We define a new family of graph invariants, studying the topology of the moduli space of their geometric realizations in Euclidean spaces, using a limiting procedure reminiscent of Floer homology. Given a labeled graph $G$ on $n$ vertices…
In this paper, we study the ergodicity of a one-parameter diagonalizable subgroup of a connected semisimple real algebraic group $G$ acting on a homogeneous space or, more generally, a homogeneous-like space, equipped with a…
The main goal of this work is to establish quantitative nondivergence estimates for flows on homogeneous spaces of products of real and $p$-adic Lie groups. These results have applications both to ergodic theory and to Diophantine…
We effectively conclude the local rigidity program for generic restrictions of partially hyperbolic Weyl chamber flows. Our methods replace and extend previous ones by circumventing computations made in Schur multipliers. Instead, we…
Let $\mathbb{H}$ be the sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group. That $\mathbb{H}$ supports a rich family of quasiconformal mappings was demonstrated by Kor\'{a}nyi and Reimann using the so-called flow method. Here we supply further evidence of the…
Given an ergodic flow $T=(T_t)_{t\in\Bbb R}$, let $I(T)$ be the set of reals $s\ne 0$ for which the flows $(T_{st})_{t\in\Bbb R}$ and $T$ are isomorphic. It is proved that $I(T)$ is a Borel subset of $\Bbb R^*$. It carries a natural Polish…
We investigate the algebraic genericity of various families of continuous functions exhibiting extreme irregularity, focusing on fractal dimensions, H\"older regularity, and fractional differentiability. Our first main result shows that for…
In this note, we construct families of functionals of the type of $\mathcal{F}$-functional and $\mathcal{W}$-functional of Perelman. We prove that these new functionals are nondecreasing under the Ricci flow. As applications, we give a…
We study the Weyl formula for the asymptotic number of eigenvalues of the Laplace-Beltrami operator with Dirichlet boundary condition on a Riemannian manifold in the context of geometric flows. Assuming the eigenvalues to be the energies of…
We study some aspects of noncommutative differential geometry on a finite Weyl group in the sense of S. Woronowicz, K. Bresser {\it et al.}, and S. Majid. For any finite Weyl group $W$ we consider the subalgebra generated by flat…
Given $1\leq p<\infty$, we show that ergodic flows in the $L^p$-space over a $\sigma$-finite measure space generated by strongly continuous semigroups of Dunford-Schwartz operators and modulated by bounded Besicovitch almost periodic…
We develop a model-theoretic framework for the study of distal factors of strongly ergodic, measure-preserving dynamical systems of countable groups. Our main result is that all such factors are contained in the (existential) algebraic…
We study the Dirichlet dynamical zeta function $\eta_D(s)$ for billiard flow corresponding to several strictly convex disjoint obstacles. For large ${\rm Re}\: s$ we have $\eta_D(s) =\sum_{n= 1}^{\infty} a_n e^{-\lambda_n s}, \: a_n \in…
The paper is about methods of discrete Fourier analysis in the context of Weyl group symmetry. Three families of class functions are defined on the maximal torus of each compact simply connected semisimple Lie group $G$. Such functions can…
