This paper studies maximisation of an average-cost-per-unit-time ergodic functional over impulse strategies controlling a Feller-Markov process. The uncontrolled process is assumed to be ergodic but, unlike the extant literature, the…
This paper addresses the problem of trajectory planning for information gathering with a dynamic and resolution-varying sensor footprint. Ergodic planning offers a principled framework that balances exploration (visiting all areas) and…
In this article we show that any ergodic rigid system can be topologically realized by a uniformly rigid and (topologically) weak mixing topological dynamical system.
In this article, we consider the ergodic optimization of the top Lyapunov exponent. We prove that there is a unique maximising measure of top Lyapunov expoent for typical matrix cocyles. By using the results we obtain, we prove that in any…
Let $\mathcal{P}$ be an (unbounded) countable multiset of primes, let $G=\bigoplus_{p\in P}\mathbb{F}_p$. We study the $k$'th universal characteristic factors of an ergodic probability system $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu)$ with respect to some…

In ergodic singular stochastic control problems, a decision-maker can instantaneously adjust the evolution of a state variable using a control of bounded variation, with the goal of minimizing a long-term average cost functional. The cost…
We study a one-parameter family of interval maps $\{T_\alpha\}_{\alpha\in[1,\beta]}$, with $\beta$ the golden mean, defined on $[-1,1]$ by $T_\alpha(x)=\beta^{1+|t|}x-t\beta\alpha$ where $t\in\{-1,0,1\}$. For each $T_\alpha,\ \alpha>1$, we…
We study double ergodic averages with respect to two general commuting transformations and establish a sharp quantitative result on their convergence in the norm. We approach the problem via real harmonic analysis, using recently developed…
Consider a transitive expanding dynamical system $ \sigma: \Sigma \to \Sigma $, and a H\"older potential $ A $. In ergodic optimization, one is interested in properties of $A$-maximizing probabilities. Assuming ergodicity, it is already…
Recently, Kiriki, Nakano and Soma introduced a concept called pointwise emergence as a new quantitative perspective into the study of non-existence of averages for dynamical systems. In the present paper, we consider the set of points with…
The aim of this article is to obtain a better understanding and classification of strictly ergodic topological dynamical systems with discrete spectrum. To that end, we first determine when an isomorphic maximal equicontinuous factor map of…
In this paper we are concerned with the study of additive ergodic averages in multiplicative systems and the investigation of the "pretentious" dynamical behaviour of these systems. We prove a mean ergodic theorem (Theorem A) that…
Let $T \colon M \to M$ be a nonuniformly expanding dynamical system, such as logistic or intermittent map. Let $v \colon M \to \mathbb{R}^d$ be an observable and $v_n = \sum_{k=0}^{n-1} v \circ T^k$ denote the Birkhoff sums. Given a…
Statistical mechanics is founded on the assumption that all accessible configurations of a system are equally likely. This requires dynamics that explore all states over time, known as ergodic dynamics. In isolated quantum systems, however,…
In search and surveillance applications in robotics, it is intuitive to spatially distribute robot trajectories with respect to the probability of locating targets in the domain. Ergodic coverage is one such approach to trajectory planning…
Recent methods in ergodic coverage planning have shown promise as tools that can adapt to a wide range of geometric coverage problems with general constraints, but are highly sensitive to the numerical scaling of the problem space. The…
We propose to study the multifractal behavior of weighted ergodic averages. Our study in this paper is concentrated on the symbolic dynamics. We introduce a thermodynamical formalism which leads to a multifractal spectrum. It is proved that…
We propose a new model of ergodic optimization for expansive dynamical systems: the holonomic setting. In fact, we introduce an extension of the standard model used in this theory. The formulation we consider here is quite natural if one…
For dynamical systems satisfying the approximate $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ or $\mathbb{Z}_+^{d}$-product property and asymptotically entropy expansiveness, we establish a precise description of the structure of their space of invariant measures. In…
