Say that a function pi:n^{<omega}-->n (henceforth called a predictor) k-constantly predicts a real x in n^omega if for almost all intervals I of length k, there is i in I such that x(i)=pi (x restriction i). We study the k-constant…
The so-called Fundamental Theorem of Dynamical Systems -- which(1) relates attractors and repellers to the chain recurrent set and (2) gives the existence of a complete Lyapunov function -- can be seen as a means of separating out…
A generalization of the entropy production rate is proposed $\Pi_q$ in non-equilibrium systems by extending the formalism of classical stochastic thermodynamics to regimes with non-Gaussian fluctuations. Through the R\'enyi entropy $S_q$ ,…
We give a survey on classical and recent applications of dynamical systems to number theoretic problems. In particular, we focus on normal numbers, also including computational aspects. The main result is a sufficient condition for…
For an integer $b\geq 2$, a positive integer is called a $b$-Niven number if it is a multiple of the sum of the digits in its base-$b$ representation. In this article, we show that every arithmetic progression contains infinitely many…
In a recent paper [1] we have proposed a new approach for extracting the wave function of the $\pi$-meson $\varphi_{\pi}(x)$ and the masses and wave functions of its first resonances from the new QCD sum rules for non-diagonal correlators…
In this paper we introduce a map $\Phi$, which we call \textit{zonoid map}, from the space of all non-negative, finite Borel measures on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with finite first moment to the space of zonoids of $\mathbb{R}^n$. This map, connecting…
We investigate the convergence towards periodic orbits in discrete dynamical systems. We examine the probability that a randomly chosen point converges to a particular neighborhood of a periodic orbit in a fixed number of iterations, and we…
The Gibbs sampler (a.k.a. Glauber dynamics and heat-bath algorithm) is a popular Markov Chain Monte Carlo algorithm which iteratively samples from the conditional distributions of a probability measure $\pi$ of interest. Under the…
In this paper, we are interested in the limit theorem question for sums of indicator functions. We show that in every aperiodic dynamical system, for every increasing sequence $(a_n)_{n\in\N}\subset\R_+$ such that $a_n\nearrow\infty$ and…
In this paper decomposition of periodic orbits in bifurcation diagrams are derived in unidimensional dynamics system $x_{n+1}=f(x_{n};r)$, being $f$ an unimodal function. We proof a theorem which states the necessary and sufficient…
We consider the category of partially observable dynamical systems, to which the entropy theory of dynamical systems extends functorially. This leads us to introduce quotient-topological entropy. We discuss the structure that emerges. We…
The results of the study provide guidelines for the development and applications of algorithms. When the number of steps for calculating an assumption tends to infinity, probability theory can be applied to predict whether the assumption…
We survey an area of recent development, relating dynamics to theoretical computer science. We discuss the theoretical limits of simulation and computation of interesting quantities in dynamical systems. We will focus on central objects of…
Let $T$ be a $\R$-tree in the boundary of the Outer Space CV$_N$, with dense orbits. The $Q$-index of $T$ is defined by means of the dual lamination of $T$. It is a generalisation of the Euler-Poincar\'e index of a foliation on a surface.…
The dynamics of a physical system is linked to its phase-space geometry by Noether's theorem, which holds under standard hypotheses including continuity. Does an analogous theorem hold for discrete systems? As a testbed, we take the Ising…
A procedure and theoretical results are presented for the problem of determining a minimal robust positively invariant (RPI) set for a linear discrete-time system subject to unknown, bounded disturbances. The procedure computes, via the…
Given any two rational numbers $r_1$ and $r_2$, a necessary and sufficient condition is established for the three numbers $1$, $\cos (\pi r_1)$, and $\cos (\pi r_2)$ to be rationally independent. Extending a classical fact sometimes…
Combining two results from machine learning theory we prove that a formula is NIP if and only if it satisfies uniform definability of types over finite sets (UDTFS). This settles a conjecture of Laskowski.
In this paper we present, in the context of Diaconis' paradigm, a general method to detect the cutoff phenomenon. We use this method to prove cutoff in a variety of models, some already known and others not yet appeared in literature,…
