We investigate the dynamics of periodic non-autonomous discrete dynamical systems on uniform spaces and topological spaces, focusing on the extension of the classical Auslander-Yorke dichotomy to these settings. We prove various dichotomy…
We define the Furstenberg boundary of a locally compact Hausdorff \'etale groupoid, generalising the Furstenberg boundary for discrete groups, by providing a construction of a groupoid-equivariant injective envelope. Using this injective…
In this paper, we pay attention to a weaker version of Walters's question on the existence of non-uniform cocycles for uniquely ergodic minimal dynamical systems on non-degenerate connected spaces. We will classify such dynamical systems…
We take the first steps towards a better understanding of continuous orbit equivalence, i.e., topological orbit equivalence with continuous cocycles. First, we characterise continuous orbit equivalence in terms of isomorphisms of C*-crossed…
We construct ergodic actions of compact quantum groups on C^*-algebras and von Neumann algebras, and exhibit phenomena of such actions that are of a different nature from ergodic actions of compact Lie groups. In particular, we construct:…
We show that any finite group admits actions on simple AF algebras with unique trace which have arbitrarily large finite values of Rokhlin dimension with commuting towers. We show similar results for actions of compact Lie groups, with AH…
In this paper, we show that one of the conditions in the definition of weak tracial Rokhlin property for finite group actions on simple unital C*-algebras can be replaced by a seemingly weaker condition, or a seemingly stronger condition.…
We study a class of self-adjoint operators defined on the direct sum of two Hilbert spaces: a finite dimensional one called sometimes a ``small subsystem'' and an infinite dimensional one -- a ``reservoir''. The operator, which we call a…
In this paper we present a new characterization of free group actions (in classical differential geometry), involving dynamical systems and representations of the corresponding transformation groups. In fact, given a dynamical system, we…
Topological complexity for spaces was introduced by M. Farber as a minimal number of continuity domains for motion planning algorithms. It turns out that this notion can be extended to the case of not necessarily commutative C*-algebras.…
We associate determinant lines to objects of the extended abelian category built out of a von Neumann category with a trace. Using this we suggest constructions of the combinatorial and the analytic L^2 torsions which, unlike the work of…
The aim of this paper is to introduce and to investigate the analogues of torsors for compact quantum groups and to study their role in representation theory. Let A be a unitarizable Hopf *-algebra: we show that there is a category…
We show that in order to prove that every second countable locally compact groups with exact reduced group C*-algebra is exact in the dynamical sense (i.e. KW-exact) it suffices to show this for totally disconnected groups.
We determine Furstenberg entropy spectra of ergodic stationary actions of $SL(d,\mathbb{R})$ and its lattices. The constraints on entropy spectra are derived from a refinement of the Nevo-Zimmer projective factor theorem. The realisation…
We prove a number of results linking properties of actions by compact groups (both quantum and classical) on Banach spaces, such as uniform continuity, spectrum finiteness and extensibility of the actions across several constructions.…
Let $a < b$ be multiplicatively independent integers, both at least $2$. Let $A,B$ be closed subsets of $[0,1]$ that are forward invariant under multiplication by $a$, $b$ respectively, and let $C := A\times B$. An old conjecture of…
In a previous work, we proved an index theorem for families of asymptotically hyperbolic discrete dynamical systems and obtained applications to bifurcation theory. A weaker and far more common assumption than asymptotic hyperbolicity is…
Several results related to flat Friedmann-Lema\^{\i}tre-Robertson-Walker models in the conformal (Einstein) frame of scalar-tensor gravity theories are extended. Scalar fields with arbitrary (positive) potentials and arbitrary coupling…
This paper is a continuation of our work on the functional-analytic core of the classical Furstenberg-Zimmer theory. We introduce and study (in the framework of lattice-ordered spaces) the notions of total order-boundedness and uniform…
We establish a non-ergodic version of the Host-Kra-Ziegler structure theorem for measure-preserving $\mathbb{Z}^d$-actions. Our argument reduces the non-ergodic case to the ergodic theorem (for $d\ge 2$ due to Candela and Szegedy) via a…
