We compare self-joining- and embeddability properties. In particular, we prove that a measure preserving flow $(T_t)_{t\in\mathbb{R}}$ with $T_1$ ergodic is 2-fold quasi-simple (2-fold distally simple) if and only if $T_1$ is 2-fold…

Given a probability space $(X,\mu)$, a square integrable function $f$ on such space and a (unilateral or bilateral) shift operator $T$, we prove under suitable assumptions that the ergodic means $N^{-1}\sum_{n=0}^{N-1} T^nf$ converge…

Ergodic optimization aims to describe dynamically invariant probability measures that maximize the integral of a given function. The Dyck and Motzkin shifts are well-known examples of transitive subshifts over a finite alphabet that are not…

We prove the upper semicontinuity of the measure theoretic entropy for the geodesic flow on complete Riemannian manifolds without focal points and bounded sectional curvature. We then study the relationship between the escape of mass…

For $i = 0, 1, 2, \dots, k$, let $\mu_i$ be a Borel probability measure on $[0,1]$ which is equivalent to Lebesgue measure $\lambda$ and let $T_i:[0,1] \rightarrow [0,1]$ be $\mu_i$-preserving ergodic transformations. We say that…

Let $(X,\mu)$ be a probability space equipped with an invertible, measure-preserving transformation $T\colon X \to X$. We exhibit a wide class of weights $w$ so that whenever $f,g \in L^{\infty}(X)$, the bilinear ergodic averages \[…

For ergodic measures we consider the return and entry times for a measure preserving transformation and its induced map on a positive measure subset. We then show that the limiting entry and return times distributions are the same for the…

We construct a rank one infinite measure preserving transformation $T$ such that for all sequences of nonzero integers $\{k_{1},..., k_{r}\}$, $T^{k_{1}}\times...\times T^{k_{r}}$ is ergodic.

A collection of integer sequences is jointly ergodic if for every ergodic measure preserving system the multiple ergodic averages, with iterates given by this collection of sequences, converge in the mean to the product of the integrals. We…

We consider a conservative ergodic measure-preserving transformation $T$ of a $\sigma$-finite measure space $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu)$ with $\mu(X)=\infty$. Given an observable $f:X\to \mathbb{R}$ we study the almost sure asymptotic behaviour of…

Let $(X, \mathcal{B}, \mu, T)$ be a dynamical system where $X$ is a compact metric space with Borel $\sigma$-algebra $\mathcal{B}$, and $\mu$ is a probability measure that's ergodic with respect to the homeomorphism $T : X \to X$. We study…

We prove that the flow generated by any interval map with zero topological entropy is minimally mean-attractable (MMA) and minimally mean-L-stable (MMLS). One of the consequences is that any oscillating sequence is linearly disjoint with…

Let $T_1, ..., T_l: X \to X$ be commuting measure-preserving transformations on a probability space $(X, \X, \mu)$. We show that the multiple ergodic averages $\frac{1}{N} \sum_{n=0}^{N-1} f_1(T_1^n x) ... f_l(T_l^n x)$ are convergent in…

Given an ergodic flow $T=(T_t)_{t\in\Bbb R}$, let $I(T)$ be the set of reals $s\ne 0$ for which the flows $(T_{st})_{t\in\Bbb R}$ and $T$ are isomorphic. It is proved that $I(T)$ is a Borel subset of $\Bbb R^*$. It carries a natural Polish…

Let $a_n$ be the random increasing sequence of natural numbers which takes each value independently with decreasing probability of order $n^{-\alpha}$, $0 < \alpha < 1/2$. We prove that, almost surely, for every measure-preserving system…

A time change of a flow $\{T_t\}$, ${t\in\mathbb{R}}$, is a reparametrization of the orbits of the flow such that each orbit is mapped to itself by an orientation-preserving homeomorphism of the parameter space. If a flow $\{S_t\}$ is…

We study the thermodynamic formalism for suspension flows over countable Markov shifts with roof functions not necessarily bounded away from zero. We establish conditions to ensure the existence and uniqueness of equilibrium measures for…

We consider a process on $\mathbb{T}^2$, which consists of fast motion along the stream lines of an incompressible periodic vector field perturbed by white noise. It gives rise to a process on the graph naturally associated to the structure…

In this paper we study the ergodic theory and thermodynamic formalism of the geodesic flow on non-compact pinched negatively curved manifolds. We consider two notions of entropy at infinity, the topological and the measure theoretic entropy…

In this paper we study the ergodic theory of a class of symbolic dynamical systems $(\O, T, \mu)$ where $T:{\O}\to \O$ the left shift transformation on $\O=\prod_0^\infty\{0,1\}$ and $\mu$ is a $\s$-finite $T$-invariant measure having the…
