We study non-recurrence sets for weakly mixing dynamical systems by using linear dynamical systems. These are systems consisting of a bounded linear operator acting on a separable complex Banach space X, which becomes a probability space…

We investigate to what extent a minimal topological dynamical system is uniquely determined by a set of return times to some open set. We show that in many situations this is indeed the case as long as the closure of this open set has no…

We prove that if a topological dynamical system $(X,T)$ is surjective and has the vague specification property, then its ergodic measures are dense in the space of all invariant measures. The vague specification property generalises Bowen's…

Noether's theorem, which connects continuous symmetries to exact conservation laws, remains one of the most fundamental principles in physics and dynamical systems. In this work, we draw a conceptual parallel between two paradigms: the…

The paper is devoted to study of product recurrence. First, we prove that notions of $\F_{ps}-PR$ and $\F_{pubd}-PR$ are exactly the same as product recurrence, completing that way results of [P. Dong, S. Shao and X. Ye, \emph{Product…

This paper introduces indefinite proximities inherent in the collection of physical objects found in a dynamical system. Axiomatically, these indefinite proximities lead to a new form of Hausdorff topology, which is indefinite…

We extend the recently developed discrete geometric singular perturbation theory to the non-normally hyperbolic regime. Our primary tool is the Takens embedding theorem, which provides a means of approximating the dynamics of particular…

We reformulate and generalize the uniqueness and existence proofs of time-dependent density-functional theory. The central idea is to restate the fundamental one-to-one correspondence between densities and potentials as a global fixed point…

We consider the collection of uniformly discrete point sets in Euclidean space equipped with the vague topology. For a point set in this collection, we characterise minimality of an associated dynamical system by almost repetitivity of the…

Let $(X,T)$ be a topological dynamical system, and $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of subsets of $\mathbb{Z}_+$. $(X,T)$ is strongly $\mathcal{F}$-sensitive, if there is $\delta>0$ such that for each non-empty open subset $U$, there are $x,y\in…

We consider the problem of proving that each point in a given set of states ("target set") can indeed be reached by a given nondeterministic continuous-time dynamical system from some initial state. We consider this problem for abstract…

The vector field of a mixed-monotone system is decomposable via a decomposition function into increasing (cooperative) and decreasing (competitive) components, and this decomposition allows for, e.g., efficient computation of reachable sets…

We consider measurable and topological dynamical systems over locally compact abelian groups. Our main observation relates convergence of Wiener-Wintner type averages to eigenvalues of the dynamical system in question. As a consequence we…

Recently, W. M. Schmidt and L. Summerer introduced a new theory which allowed them to recover the main known inequalities relating the usual exponents of Diophantine approximation to a point in $\mathbb{R}^n$, and to discover new ones. They…

Originating in harmonic analysis, interpolation sets were first studied in dynamics by Glasner and Weiss in the 1980s. A set $S \subset \mathbb{N}$ is an interpolation set for a class of topological dynamical systems $\mathcal{C}$ if any…

Let $\pi: (X,T)\rightarrow (Y,T)$ be a factor map of topological dynamics and $d\in {\mathbb {N}}$. $(Y,T)$ is said to be a $d$-step topological characteristic factor if there exists a dense $G_\delta$ set $X_0$ of $X$ such that for each…

Starting with a combinatorial partition theorem for words over an infinite alphabet dominated by a fixed sequence, established recently by the authors, we prove recurrence results for topological dynamical systems indexed by such words. In…

We construct, in locally compact, second countable, amenable groups, sets with large density that fail to have certain combinatorial properties. For the property of being a shift of a set of measurable recurrence we show that this is…

We offer a new proof of Furstenberg and Katznelson's density version of the Hales-Jewett Theorem: For any $\delta > 0$ there is some $N_0 \geq 1$ such that whenever $A \subseteq [k]^N$ with $N \geq N_0$ and $|A|\geq \delta k^N$, $A$…

Networked discrete dynamical systems are often used to model the spread of contagions and decision-making by agents in coordination games. Fixed points of such dynamical systems represent configurations to which the system converges. In the…
