We study properties of the Weyl pseudometric associated with an action of a countable amenable group on a compact metric space. We prove that the topological entropy and the number of minimal subsets of the closure of an orbit are both…

Following works of Furstenberg and Nevo and Zimmer we present an outline of a theory of stationary (or m-stationary) dynamical systems for a general acting group G equipped with a probability measure m. Our purpose is two-fold: First to…

We consider a sequence of identically independently distributed random samples from an absolutely continuous probability measure in one dimension with unbounded density. We establish a new rate of convergence of the $\infty-$Wasserstein…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of a $\gamma$-density point for Lebesgue-measurable subsets of $\mathbb{R}$, where $\gamma$ is a modulus function, and study its basic measure-theoretic properties. We show that every $\gamma$-density…

We describe random walk boundaries (in particular, the Poisson--Furstenberg, or PF-boundary) for a vast family of groups in terms of the hyperbolic boundary of a special free subgroup. We prove that almost all trajectories of the random…

We show that (with one possible exception) there exist strongly dense free subgroups in any semisimple algebraic group over a large enough field. These are nonabelian free subgroups all of whose subgroups are either cyclic or Zariski dense.…

Consider a closed surface $S$ with negative Euler characteristic, and an admissible probability measure on the fundamental group of $S$ with finite first moment with respect to some hyperbolic metric on $S$. Corresponding to each point in…

We study linear random walks on the torus and show a quantitative equidistribution statement, under the assumption that the Zariski closure of the acting group is semisimple.

We show that the product or convex combination of two Markov operators with equivalent stationary measures need not have a stationary measure from the same measure class. More specifically, we exhibit examples of a hitherto undescribed…

The totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP) on the one-dimensional lattice with the Bernoulli \rho measure as initial conditions, 0<\rho<1, is stationary in space and time. Let N_t(j) be the number of particles which have…

We clarify the relation between noncommutative Poisson boundaries and Furstenberg-Hamana boundaries of quantum groups. Specifically, given a compact quantum group $G$, we show that in many cases where the Poisson boundary of the dual…

We study extreme values of group-indexed stable random fields for discrete groups $G$ acting geometrically on spaces $X$ in the following cases: 1) $G$ acts freely, properly discontinuously by isometries on a CAT(-1) space $X$, 2) $G$ is a…

We prove that if G is a sufficiently large finite almost simple group of Lie type, then given a fixed nontrivial element x in G and a coset of G modulo its socle, the probability that x and a random element of the coset generate a subgroup…

We show that finite quasisimple groups of Lie type in characteristic $p$ with an irreducible representation of prime degree $r$ over a finite field of characteristic $p$ have orders bounded above by a function of $r$, independent of $p$. We…

Using the analytic assembly map that appears in the Baum-Connes conjecture in noncommutative geometry, we generalise the $\Spin^c$-version of the Guillemin-Sternberg conjecture that `quantisation commutes with reduction' to (discrete series…

A topological group $G$ is said to have the L\'evy property if it admits a dense subgroup which is decomposed as the union of an increasing sequence of compact subgroups $\mathcal{G}=\{G_i:i\in\mathbb{N}\}$ of $G$ which exhibits…

This paper discusses the asymptotic behaviour of the number of descents in a random signed permutation and its inverse, which was posed as an open problem by Chatterjee and Diaconis in a recent publication. For that purpose, we generalize…

Answering the question of V.I. Oseledets, we present a random variable $\xi$ such that the sum $\xi(x)+a\xi(y)$ has a singular distribution for a set of parameters $a$ dense in $(1, +\infty)$, but for another dense set of parameters, this…

An explicit sufficient condition on the hypercontractivity is derived for the Markov semigroup associated to a class of functional stochastic differential equations. Consequently, the semigroup $P_t$ converges exponentially to its unique…

Let $X=(X_t)$ be a one-dimensional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process with an initial density function $f$ supported on the positive real-line that is a regularly varying function with exponent $-(1+\eta)$, with $\eta\in (0,1)$. We prove the…
