We prove that five characterizations of Gibbs measures for H\"{o}lder potentials on topologically mixing subshifts of finite type are equivalent: the Jacobian condition, the classical cylinder-based Gibbs property, the eigenmeasure of the…

Gibbs sampling is a common procedure used to fit finite mixture models. However, it is known to be slow to converge when exploring correlated regions of a parameter space and so blocking correlated parameters is sometimes implemented in…

We define the notion of sequential Gibbs measures, inspired by on the classical notion of Gibbs measures and recent examples from the study of non-uniform hyperbolic dynamics. Extending previous results of Kempton-Pollicott and…

We show that dynamical systems with $\phi$-mixing measures have local escape rates which are exponential with rate $1$ at non-periodic points and equal to the extremal index at periodic points. We apply this result to equilibrium states on…

We prove that a Gibbs point process interacting via a finite-range, repulsive potential $\phi$ exhibits a strong spatial mixing property for activities $\lambda < e/\Delta_{\phi}$, where $\Delta_{\phi}$ is the potential-weighted connective…

In a recent article, Rapaport showed that there is no dimension drop for exponentially separated analytic IFSs on the real line. We show that the set of such exponentially separated IFSs in the space of analytic IFSs contains an open and…

We study images of equilibrium (Gibbs) states for a class of non-invertible transformations associated to conformal iterated function systems with overlaps $\mathcal S$. We prove exact dimensionality for these image measures, and find a…

For each countable residually finite group $G$, we present examples of irregular Toeplitz subshifts in $\{0,1\}^G$ that are topo-isomorphic extensions of its maximal equicontinuous factor. To achieve this, we first establish sufficient…

We study the thermodynamic formalism for particular types of sub-additive sequences on a class of subshifts over countable alphabets. The subshifts we consider include factors of irreducible countable Markov shifts under certain conditions.…

We are concerned with sets of generic points for shift-invariant measures in the countable symbolic space. We measure the sizes of the sets by the Billingsley-Hausdorff dimensions defined by Gibbs measures. It is shown that the dimension of…

The distribution $g_{cl}$ of a Gibbs cluster point process in $X=\mathbb{R}^{d}$ (with i.i.d. random clusters attached to points of a Gibbs configuration with distribution $g$) is studied via the projection of an auxiliary Gibbs measure…

We introduce the notions of over- and under-independence for weakly mixing and (free) ergodic measure preserving actions and establish new results which complement and extend the theorems obtained in [BoFW] and [A]. Here is a sample of…

We consider a generic class of log-concave, possibly random, (Gibbs) measures. We prove the concentration of an infinite family of order parameters called multioverlaps. Because they completely parametrise the quenched Gibbs measure of the…

We study a broad class of local homeomorphisms and continuous potentials, proving the existence and uniqueness of weak Gibbs measures. From the Gibbs property, we show the uniqueness of equilibrium states and derive a large deviations…

We develop a framework for approximating collapsed Gibbs sampling in generative latent variable cluster models. Collapsed Gibbs is a popular MCMC method, which integrates out variables in the posterior to improve mixing. Unfortunately for…

We consider stochastic dynamics of lattice systems with finite local state space, possibly at low temperature, and possibly non-reversible. We assume the additional regularity properties on the dynamics: a) There is at least one stationary…

Let $f$ be a holomorphic automorphism of a compact K\"ahler manifold with simple action on cohomology and $\mu$ its unique measure of maximal entropy. We prove that $\mu$ is exponentially mixing of all orders for all d.s.h.\ observables,…

Consider a passive scalar which is advected by an incompressible flow $u$ and has small molecular diffusivity $\kappa$. Previous results show that if $u$ is exponentially mixing and $C^1$, then the dissipation time is $O(|\log \kappa|^2)$.…

We develop a new Gibbs sampler for a linear mixed model with a Dirichlet process random effect term, which is easily extended to a generalized linear mixed model with a probit link function. Our Gibbs sampler exploits the properties of the…

Let $(X,d,f)$ be a dynamical system, where $(X,d)$ is a compact metric space and $f:X\rightarrow X$ is a continuous map. Using the concepts of \textit{g-almost product property} and \textit{uniform separation property} introduced by Pfister…
