This article is a follow-up of ``Holonomy and Path Structures in General Relativity and Yang-Mills Theory" by Barrett, J. W. (Int.J.Theor.Phys., vol.30, No.9, 1991). Its main goal is to provide an alternative proof of this part of the…
We prove that if $G$ is a finitely generated group and $Z$ is a uniformly recurrent subgroup of $G$ then there exists a minimal system $(X,G)$ with $Z$ as its stability system. This answers a query of Glasner and Weiss \cite{GW} in the case…
We obtain a description of the Poincar\'e recurrences of chaotic systems in terms of the ergodic theory of transient chaos. It is based on the equivalence between the recurrence time distribution and an escape time distribution obtained by…
We prove a general theorem that gives a linear recurrence for tuples of paths in every cylindrical network. This can be seen as a cylindrical analog of the Lindstr\"om-Gessel-Viennot theorem. We illustrate the result by applying it to Schur…
In this paper, we develop several structure theorems concerning commuting transformations and minimal $\mathbb{R}$-flows. Specifically, we show that if $(X,S)$, $(X,T)$ are minimal systems with $S$ and $T$ being commutative, then they…
Recurrence is a fundamental characteristic of dynamical systems with complicated behavior. Understanding the inner structure of recurrence is challenging, especially if the system has many degrees of freedom and is subject to noise. We…
In this paper we prove tight bounds on the combinatorial and topological complexity of sets defined in terms of $n$ definable sets belonging to some fixed definable family of sets in an o-minimal structure. This generalizes the…
For measure preserving dynamical systems on metric spaces we study the time needed by a typical orbit to return back close to its starting point. We prove that when the decay of correlation is super-polynomial the recurrence rates and the…
A result of the author shows that the behavior of Gowers norms on bounded exponent abelian groups is connected to finite nilspaces. Motivated by this, we investigate the structure of finite nilspaces. As an application we prove inverse…
We show that there is a set which is not a set of multiple recurrence despite being a set of recurrence for nil-Bohr sets. This answers Huang, Shao, and Ye's \enquote{higher-order} version of Katznelson's Question on Bohr recurrence and…
Using a structure theorem from [FG2010] we prove a version of multiple recurrence for sets of positive measure in a general stationary dynamical system.
We investigate the statistics of recurrences to finite size intervals for chaotic dynamical systems. We find that the typical distribution presents an exponential decay for almost all recurrence times except for a few short times affected…
We identify the free half shuffle algebra of Sch\"utzenberger (1958) with an algebra of real-valued functionals on paths, where the half shuffle emulates integration of a functional against another. We then provide two, to our knowledge,…
We identify a structural pattern in the construction of known infinite families of trees whose independence polynomials are not log-concave. Using this pattern and properties of polynomial ring ideals, we derive linear recurrences for these…
We investigate quantitative recurrence in systems having an infinite measure. We extend the Ornstein-Weiss theorem for a general class of infinite systems estimating return time in decreasing sequences of cylinders. Then we restrict to a…
We investigate random complex dynamics of rational or polynomial maps on the Riemann sphere. We show that regarding random complex dynamics of polynomials, generically, the chaos of the averaged system disappears at any point in the Riemann…
We show that the random adjacency matrices induced by the chronological relations and i.i.d. samples of two spacetimes coincide in law if and only if the spacetimes in question are smoothly isometric. A similar result holds for weighted…
Recently, Qiu, Xu, Ye and Yu proved that for product system of finitely many minimal systems, the maximal $\infty$-step pro-nilfactor of the system is the topological characteristic factor. In this paper, we extend the result to…
We study the dynamics of iteration function systems generated by a pair of circle diffeomorphisms close to rotations in the $C^{1+\mathrm{bv}}$-topology. We characterize the obstruction to minimality and describe the limit set. In…
For an ordinary thermodynamical system the Poincar\'{e} recurrence time is exponentially large in the Boltzmann entropy of the system. It turns out, that for a system with dynamical chaos it is determined by the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy and…
