The Kotani-Last conjecture states that every ergodic operator in one space dimension with non-empty absolutely continuous spectrum must have almost periodic coefficients. This statement makes sense in a variety of settings; for example,…

We show that the orbit equivalence relation of a free action of a locally compact group is hyperfinite (\`a la Connes-Feldman-Weiss) precisely when it is 'hypercompact'. This implies an uncountable version of the Ornstein-Weiss Theorem and…

Choosing the optimal observable to model dynamical systems for which we do not know the driving equations is nearly always an ad hoc art. Takens' Delay Embedding Theorem guarantees a diffeomorphism between delay-coordinate vectors built…

This paper is concerned with uniform convergence in the multiplicative ergodic theorem on aperiodic subshifts. If such a subshift satisfies a certain condition, originally introduced by Boshernitzan, every locally constant SL(2,R)-valued…

We present two different types of models where, for certain singular cardinals lambda of uncountable cofinality, lambda -> (lambda, omega+1)^2, although lambda is not a strong limit cardinal. We announce, here, and will present in a…

We introduce a class of orbits which may have $0$ Lyapunov exponents, but still demonstrate some sensitivity to initial conditions. We construct a countable Markov partition with a finite-to-one almost everywhere induced coding, and which…

We show that every uniquely ergodic minimal Cantor system is topological orbit equivalent to the natural extension of a numeration scale associated to a logistic map.

In this short note we construct two countable, infinite conjugacy class groups which admit free, ergodic, probability measure preserving orbit equivalent actions, but whose group von Neumann algebras are not (stably) isomorphic.

We introduce the notion of $\lambda$-equivalence and $\lambda$-embeddings of objects in suitable categories. This notion specializes to $L_{\infty\lambda}$-equivalence and $L_{\infty\lambda}$-elementary embedding for categories of…

Gutzwiller's trace formula and Bogomolny's formula are applied to a non--specific, non--scalable Hamiltonian system, a two--dimensional anharmonic oscillator. These semiclassical theories reproduce well the exact quantal results over a…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic two, and let $\lambda$ be a two-part partition of some natural number $r$. Denote the permutation module corresponding to the (maximal) Young subgroup $\Sigma_\lambda$ in $\Sigma_r$ by $M^\lambda$. We…

We study the most general continuous transformation on the generators of bilinear master equations of a quantum oscillator. We find that transformation operators that preserve the hermiticity of density operators and conserve the…

This paper provides a complete proof of Simon-Lukic conjecture for orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle. For a probability measure $d\mu = w(\theta) \frac{d\theta}{2\pi} + d\mu_s$ with Verblunsky coefficients…

We compute exact convergence rates in von Neumann type ergodic theorems when the acting group of measure preserving transformations is free and the means are taken over spheres or over balls defined by a word metric. Relying on the upper…

We study nonhyperbolic and transitive partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms having a one-dimensional center. We prove joint flexibility with respect to entropy and center Lyapunov exponent for a broad class of these systems. Flexibility…

We describe a class of coadjoint orbits of the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ by implementing symplectic reduction for the dual pair associated to the Hamiltonian description of ideal fluids. The…

We show that under convergence in measure of probability density functions, differential entropy converges whenever the entropy integrands $f_n |\log f_n|$ are uniformly integrable and tight -- a direct consequence of Vitali's convergence…

We form a sequence of oblong matrices by evaluating an integrable vector-valued function along the orbit of an ergodic dynamical system. We obtain an almost sure asymptotic result for the permanents of those matrices. We also give an…

In the paper, we consider the full group $[\phi]$ and topological full group $[[\phi]]$ of a Cantor minimal system $(X,\f)$. We prove that the commutator subgroups $D([\f])$ and $D([[\f]])$ are simple and show that the groups $D([\f])$ and…

First, I construct an isomorphism between the categories of (topological) groups of nilpotency class 2 with 2-divisible center and (topological) Lie rings of nilpotency class 2 with 2-divisible center. That isomorphism allows us to…
