We study the dynamics of the metrics generated by measure preserving transformations. We consider a sequence of average metrics and define the corresponding sequence of $\epsilon$-entropies ({\it scaling sequence}) of the measure with…
For a dynamical system satisfying the approximate product property and asymptotically entropy expansiveness, we characterize a delicate structrue of the space of invariant measures: The ergodic measures of intermediate entropies and…
In this short note we confirm the deep structural correspondence between the complexity of a countable scattered chain (= strict linear order) and its big Ramsey combinatorics: we show that a countable scattered chain has finite big Ramsey…
The Lagrange spectrum $\mathcal{L}$ and Markov spectrum $\mathcal{M}$ are subsets of the real line with complicated fractal properties that appear naturally in the study of Diophantine approximations. It is known that the Hausdorff…
Motivated by a question of Rubel, we consider the problem of characterizing which noncompact hypersurfaces in $\RR^n$ can be regular level sets of a harmonic function modulo a $C^\infty$ diffeomorphism, as well as certain generalizations to…
In the present paper we consider preserving orientation Morse-Smale diffeomorphisms on surfaces. Using the methods of factorization and linearizing neighborhoods we prove that such diffeomorphisms have a finite number of orientable…
In this work we study the dynamical behavior Tonelli Lagrangian systems defined on the tangent bundle of the torus $\mathbb{T}^2=\mathbb{R}^2 / \mathbb{Z}^2$. We prove that the Lagrangian flow restricted to a high energy level $…
The translation action of $\RR^{d}$ on a translation bounded measure $\omega$ leads to an interesting class of dynamical systems, with a rather rich spectral theory. In general, the diffraction spectrum of $\omega$, which is the carrier of…
In this paper we exhibit new classes of smooth systems which satisfy the Central Limit Theorem (CLT) and have (at least) one of the following properties: (1) zero entropy; (2) weak but not strong mixing; (3) (polynomially) mixing but not…
We consider the spectrum of the Fibonacci Hamiltonian for small values of the coupling constant. It is known that this set is a Cantor set of zero Lebesgue measure. Here we study the limit, as the value of the coupling constant approaches…
We show that any area-preserving $C^r$-diffeomorphism of a two-dimensional surface displaying an elliptic fixed point can be $C^r$-perturbed to one exhibiting a chaotic island whose metric entropy is positive, for every $1\le r\le \infty$.…
We show that, for every compact n-dimensional manifold, n\geq 1, there is a residual subset of Diff^1(M) of diffeomorphisms for which the homoclinic class of any periodic saddle of f verifies one of the following two possibilities: Either…
We prove that every hyperbolic measure invariant under a C^{1+\alpha} diffeomorphism of a smooth Riemannian manifold possesses asymptotically ``almost'' local product structure, i.e., its density can be approximated by the product of the…
We describe the topological structure of closed manifolds of dimension no less than four which admit Morse-Smale diffeomorphisms such that its non-wandering set contains any number of sink periodic points, and any number of source periodic…
Flexible mechanical metamaterials possess repeating structural motifs that imbue them with novel, exciting properties including programmability, anomalous elastic moduli and nonlinear and robust response. We address such structures via…
We study the relationship between the spectral properties of diffusive open quantum maps and the classical spectrum of Ruelle-Pollicott resonances. The leading resonances determine the asymptotic time regime for several quantities of…
In this note we prove certain necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of an embedding of statistical manifolds. In particular, we prove that any compact smooth ($C^1$ resp.) statistical manifold can be embedded into the space…
We consider certain matrix-products where successive matrices in the product belong alternately to a particular qualitative class or its transpose. The main theorems relate structural and spectral properties of these matrix-products to the…
The Markov and Lagrange dynamical spectra, was introduced by Moreira and share several geometric and topological aspects with the classical ones. However, some features of generic dynamical spectra associated to hyperbolic sets can be…
We prove a technical lemma, the $C^{1+\alpha }$-Denjoy-Koebe distortion lemma, estimating the distortion of a long composition of a $C^{1+\alpha }$ one-dimensional mapping $f:M\mapsto M$ with finitely many, non-recurrent, power law critical…
