In the context of predicting the behaviour of chaotic systems, Schroer, Sauer, Ott and Yorke conjectured in 1998 that if a dynamical system defined by a smooth diffeomorphism $T$ of a Riemannian manifold $X$ admits an attractor with a…
Shroer, Sauer, Ott and Yorke conjectured in 1998 that the Takens delay embedding theorem can be improved in a probabilistic context. More precisely, their conjecture states that if $\mu$ is a natural measure for a smooth diffeomorphism of a…
Let $X \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ be a Borel set, $\mu$ a Borel probability measure on $X$ and $T:X \to X$ a Lipschitz and injective map. Fix $k \in \mathbb{N}$ greater than the (Hausdorff) dimension of $X$ and assume that the set of…
Let $\mu$ be a Borel probability measure generated by a hyperbolic recurrent iterated function system defined on a nonempty compact subset of $\mathbb R^k$. We study the Hausdorff and the packing dimensions, and the quantization dimensions…
The celebrated Takens' embedding theorem provides a theoretical foundation for reconstructing the full state of a dynamical system from partial observations. However, the classical theorem assumes that the underlying system is deterministic…

We obtain new lower bounds on the Hausdorff dimension of distance sets and pinned distance sets of planar Borel sets of dimension slightly larger than $1$, improving recent estimates of Keleti and Shmerkin, and of Liu in this regime. In…
Let $\{x\_n\}\_{n\geq 0}$ be a sequence of $[0,1]^d$, $\{\lambda\_n\} \_{n\geq 0}$ a sequence of positive real numbers converging to 0, and $\delta>1$. Let $\mu$ be a positive Borel measure on $[0,1]^d$, $\rho\in (0,1]$ and $\alpha>0$.…
We prove new bounds on the dimensions of distance sets and pinned distance sets of planar sets. Among other results, we show that if $A\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ is a Borel set of Hausdorff dimension $s>1$, then its distance set has Hausdorff…
For a dynamical system, we study the set of points $\cal W$ whose orbit approximates any chosen point at certain specified rates. Our basic setting is that of left shift acting on topological Markov chains endowed with a local weak Gibbs…
This paper analyzes the Lipschitz behavior of the feasible set in two parametric settings, associated with linear and convex systems in R^n. To start with, we deal with the parameter space of linear (finite/semi-infinite) systems identified…
Prediction models that capture and use the structure of state-space dynamics can be very effective. In practice, however, one rarely has access to full information about that structure, and accurate reconstruction of the dynamics from…
In a previous work we proved that if a finite Borel measure $\mu$ in a Euclidean space has Hausdorff dimension smaller than a positive integer $k$, then the orthogonal projection onto almost every $k$-dimensional linear subspace is…
If $X$ is an analytic metric space satisfying a very mild doubling condition, then for any finite Borel measure $\mu$ on $X$ there is a set $N\subseteq X$ such that $\mu(N)>0$, an ultrametric space $Z$ and a Lipschitz bijection $\phi:N\to…
A new and accurate method to determine the time delay and embedding dimension for state space reconstruction of a high dimensional system from a scalar time series using time delay embedding is presented. The time delay is obtained to…

Let $T_1,\ldots, T_m$ be a family of $d\times d$ invertible real matrices with $\|T_i\|<1/2$ for $1\leq i\leq m$. For ${\bf a}=(a_1,\ldots, a_m)\in \Bbb R^{md}$, let $\pi^{{\bf a}}:\; \Sigma=\{1,\ldots, m\}^{\Bbb N}\to \Bbb R^d$ denote the…
Probabilistic programming systems generally compute with probability density functions, leaving the base measure of each such function implicit. This mostly works, but creates problems when densities with respect to different base measures…
