For different classes of measure preserving transformations, we investigate collections of sets that exhibit the property of lightly mixing. Lightly mixing is a stronger property than topological mixing, and requires that a lim inf is…
Recently, two stronger versions of dynamical properties have been introduced and investigated: strong topological transitivity, which is a stronger version of the topological transitivity property, and hypermixing, which is a stronger…
Stirring of fluid with moving rods is necessary in many practical applications to achieve homogeneity. These rods are topological obstacles that force stretching of fluid elements. The resulting stretching and folding is commonly observed…
A measure-preserving formalism (MPF) is constructed and applied to spin/band models, which yield observations about pumping. It occurs at topological phase transition (TPT), i.e., a $Z_2$-flip, suggesting that $Z_2$ can imply bulk effects.…
We give some basic properties of strongly topologically transitive, supermixing, and hypermixing maps on general topological spaces. Then we present some other results for which our mappings need to be continuous.
Mixing by incompressible flows is a ubiquitous yet incompletely understood phenomenon in fluid dynamics. While previous studies have focused on optimal mixing rates, the question of its genericity, i.e., whether mixing occurs for typical…
We study discrete flow equivalence of two-sided topological Markov shifts by using extended Ruelle algebras. We characterize flow equivalence of two-sided topological Markov shifts in terms of conjugacy of certain actions weighted by…
Flow matching has emerged as a powerful framework for generative modeling through continuous normalizing flows. We investigate a potential topological constraint: when the prior distribution and target distribution have mismatched topology…
Let $(X,d)$ be a compact metric space, $f:X \mapsto X$ be a continuous map with the specification property, and $\varphi: X \mapsto \IR$ be a continuous function. We prove a variational principle for topological pressure (in the sense of…
We prove that if $g\geq 2$ then the set of all Abelian differentials $(M,\omega)$ for which the vertical flow is mildly mixing is dense in every stratum of the moduli space $\mathcal{H}_g$. The proof is based on a sufficient condition for…
In this paper, we prove that finite-dimensional topological flows without fixed points and having a countable number of periodic orbits, have the small flow boundary property. This enables us to answer positively a question of Bowen and…
We derive a conditional variational principle of the saturated set for systems with the non-uniform structure. Our result applies to a broad class of systems including beta-shifts, S-gap shifts and their factors.
We consider impulsive semiflows defined on compact metric spaces and give sufficient conditions, both on the semiflows and the potentials, for the existence and uniqueness of equilibrium states. We also generalize the classical notion of…
We study the behaviour at tipping points close to (smoothed) non-smooth fold bifurcations in one-dimensional oscillatory forced systems. The focus is the Stommel-Box, and related climate models, which are piecewise-smooth continuous…
We prove local limit theorems for a cocycle over a semiflow by establishing topological, mixing properties of the associated skew product semiflow. We also establish conditional rational weak mixing of certain skew product semiflows and…
A convenient measure of a map or flow's chaotic action is the topological entropy. In many cases, the entropy has a homological origin: it is forced by the topology of the space. For example, in simple toral maps, the topological entropy is…
The ability to reroute and control flow is vital to the function of venation networks across a wide range of organisms. By modifying individual edges in these networks, either by adjusting edge conductances or creating and destroying edges,…
Consider the set $\chi^0_{\mathrm{nw}}$ of non-wandering continuous flows on a closed surface. Then such a flow can be approximated by regular non-wandering flows without heteroclinic connections nor locally dense orbits in…
Let $M$ be a manifold with pinched negative sectional curvature. We show that when $M$ is geometrically finite and the geodesic flow on $T^1 M$ is topologically mixing then the set of mixing invariant measures is dense in the set…
In this work we study the problem of positiveness of topological entropy for flows using pointwise dynamics. We show that the existence of a non-periodic nonwandering point of an expansive and non-singular flow with shadowing is a…
