We investigate the shrinking target and recurrence set associated to non-autonomous measure-preserving systems on compact metric spaces, establishing zero-one criteria in the spirit of classical Borel-Cantelli results. Our first main…

In this paper we study quantitative recurrence and the shrinking target problem for dynamical systems coming from overlapping iterated function systems. Such iterated function systems have the important property that a point often has…

We study the set of points returning infinitely often to a sequence of targets dependent on the starting points. With an assumption of decay of correlations for L1 against bounded variations, we prove a generalized quantitative recurrence…

We consider the set $\mathcal{R}_\mathrm{io}$ of points returning infinitely many times to a sequence of shrinking targets around themselves. Under additional assumptions we improve Boshernitzan's pioneering result on the speed of…

In this work we study the set of eventually always hitting points in shrinking target systems. These are points whose long orbit segments eventually hit the corresponding shrinking targets for all future times. We focus our attention on…

Let $(X,d)$ be a compact metric space and $(X,\mathcal{A},\mu,T)$ a measure preserving dynamical system. Furthermore, given a real, positive function $\psi$, let $W(T, \psi)$ and $ R(T,\psi) $ respectively denote the shrinking target set…

Let $(X,T,\mu,d)$ be a metric measure-preserving system. If $B(x,r_n(x))$ is a sequence of balls such that, for each $n$, the measure of $B(x,r_n(x))$ is constant, then we obtain a self-norming CLT for recurrence for systems satisfying a…

Let $(X,T,\mu,d)$ be a metric measure-preserving system for which $3$-fold correlations decay exponentially for Lipschitz continuous observables. Suppose that $(M_k)$ is a sequence satisfying some weak decay conditions and suppose there…

Consider a mixing dynamical systems $([0,1], T, \mu)$, for instance a piecewise expanding interval map with a Gibbs measure $\mu$. Given a non-summable sequence $(m_k)$ of non-negative numbers, one may define $r_k (x)$ such that $\mu (B(x,…

We are interested in the asymptotic behaviour of the first return time of the orbits of a dynamical system into a small neighbourhood of their starting points. We study this quantity in the context of dynamical systems preserving an…

We describe the shrinking target problem for random iterated function systems which semi-conjugate to a random subshifts of finite type. We get the Hausdorff dimension of the set based on shrinking target problems with given targets. The…

Let $(B_{i})$ be a sequence of measurable sets in a probability space $(X,\mathcal{B}, \mu)$ such that $\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \mu (B_{i}) = \infty$. The classical Borel-Cantelli lemma states that if the sets $B_{i}$ are independent, then $\mu…

Suppose $B_i:= B(p,r_i)$ are nested balls of radius $r_i$ about a point $p$ in a dynamical system $(T,X,\mu)$. The question of whether $T^i x\in B_i$ infinitely often (i. o.) for $\mu$ a.e.\ $x$ is often called the shrinking target problem.…

In dynamical systems, shrinking target sets and pointwise recurrent sets are two important classes of dynamically defined subsets. In this article we introduce a mild condition on the linear parts of the affine mappings that allow us to…

Recurrence problems are fundamental in dynamics, and for example, sizes of the set of points recurring infinitely often to a target have been studied extensively in many contexts. For example, the problem of finding the dimension for…

A classical Borel Cantelli Lemma gives conditions for deciding whether an infinite number of rare events will almost surely happen. In this article, we propose an extension of Borel Cantelli Lemma to characterize the multiple occurrence of…

We survey some of the recent developments in the study of logarithm laws and shrinking target properties for various families of dynamical systems. We discuss connections to geometry, diophantine approximation, and probability theory.

Let $ ([0,1]^d,T,\mu) $ be a measure-preserving dynamical system so that the correlations decay exponentially for H\"older continuous functions. Suppose that $ \mu $ is absolutely continuous with a density function $ h\in L^q(\mathcal L^d)…

It is a safe conjecture that most (not necessarily periodic) two-dimensional Lorentz gases with finite horizon are recurrent. Here we formalize this conjecture by means of a stochastic ensemble of Lorentz gases, in which i.i.d. random…

We study the size of \emph{dynamical covering sets} on a self-similar set. Dynamical covering sets are limsup sets generated by placing shrinking target sets around points along an orbit in a dynamical system. In the case when the target…
