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 introduce and analyze the following general concept of recurrence. Let $G$ be a group and let $X$ be a G-space with the action $G\times X\longrightarrow X$, $(g,x)\longmapsto gx$. For a family $\mathfrak{F}$ of subset of $X$ and $A\in…

We initiate the study of the Stone-\v{C}ech transformation groupoid $\mathcal{G} = \mathcal{S}\ltimes\beta\mathcal{S}$ of an inverse semigroup $\mathcal{S}$. We prove that the properties of being Hausdorff, principal, and effective are all…

Let $X$ be a zero-dimensional locally compact Hausdorff space not necessarily metric and $G$ a compactly generated topological group not necessarily abelian or countable. We define recurrence at a point for any continuous action of $G$ on…

The semidirect product $\mathbb{G}=\mathbb{L}\rtimes \mathbb{K}$ attached to a compact-group action on a connected, simply-connected solvable Lie group has a dense set of compact elements precisely when the $s\in \mathbb{K}$ operating on…

Let $S$ be an infinite discrete semigroup. The operation on $S$ extends uniquely to the Stone-\v{C}ech compactification $\beta S$ making $\beta S$ a compact right topological semigroup with $S$ contained in its topological center. As such,…

A {\it dynamical system\/} is a pair $(X,\langle T_s\rangle_{s\in S})$, where $X$ is a compact Hausdorff space, $S$ is a semigroup, for each $s\in S$, $T_s$ is a continuous function from $X$ to $X$, and for all $s,t\in S$, $T_s\circ…

We define recurrence for a compactly generated para-topological group $G$ acting continuously on a locally compact Hausdorff space $X$ with $\dim X=0$, and then, show that if $\overline{Gx}$ is compact for all $x\in X$, the conditions (i)…

Let $X$ be a locally compact zero-dimensional space, let $S$ be an equicontinuous set of homeomorphisms such that $1 \in S = S^{-1}$, and suppose that $\overline{Gx}$ is compact for each $x \in X$, where $G = \langle S \rangle$. We show in…

Let $X$ be a proper CAT($0$) space and $G$ a cocompact group of isometries of $X$ without fixed point at infinity. We prove that if $\partial X$ contains an invariant subset of circumradius $\pi/2$, then $X$ contains a quasi-dense, closed…

For continuous maps of compact metric spaces $f:X\to X$ and $g:Y\to Y$ and for various notions of topological recurrence, we study the relationship between recurrence for $f$ and $g$ and recurrence for the product map $f\times g:X\times Y…

Let $\F$ be a collection of subsets of $\Z_+$ and $(X,T)$ be a dynamical system. $x\in X$ is $\F$-recurrent if for each neighborhood $U$ of $x$, $\{n\in\Z_+:T^n x\in U\}\in \F$. $x$ is $\F$-product recurrent if $(x,y)$ is recurrent for any…

Recall that a subset $X$ of a group $G$ is 'product-free' if $X^2\cap X=\varnothing$, ie if $xy\notin X$ for all $x,y\in X$. Let $G$ be a group definable in a distal structure. We prove there are constants $c>0$ and $\delta\in(0,1)$ such…

A subset of the positive integers is dynamically central syndetic if it contains the times that a point returns to a neighborhood of itself in a minimal topological dynamical system. These sets are part of the highly-influential link…

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…

We study the ideal structure of reduced crossed product of topological dynamical systems of a countable discrete group. More concretely, for a compact Hausdorff space $X$ with an action of a countable discrete group $\Gamma$, we consider…

For a discrete group $G$, we use the natural correspondence between ideals in the Boolean algebra $ \mathcal{P}_G$ of subsets of $G$ and closed subsets in the Stone-$\check{C}$ech compactifi-cation $\beta G$ as a right topological semigroup…

We study convergence of return- and hitting-time distributions of small sets $E_{k}$ with $\mu(E_{k})\rightarrow0$ in recurrent ergodic dynamical systems preserving an infinite measure $\mu$. Some properties which are easy in finite measure…

Let $G$ be a finite group and exp$(G)$ = lcm$\{$ord$(g)$$\mid$$g \in G \}$. A finite unordered sequence of terms from $G$, where repetition is allowed, is a product-one sequence if its terms can be ordered such that their product equals the…

We systematize and analyze some results obtained in Subset Combinatorics of $G$ groups after publications the previous surveys [1-4]. The main topics: the dynamical and descriptive characterizations of subsets of a group relatively their…
