The invariant measure is a fundamental object in the theory of Markov processes. In finite dimensions a Markov process is defined by transition rates of the corresponding stochastic matrix. The Markov tree theorem provides an explicit…
We prove that a shift ergodic measure on a topologically mixing sub-shift is isomorphic to a Bernoulli shift whenever it is quasi invariant under permutations of finite number of coordinates. We prove also that Gibbs measures on…
Let \Gamma be a geometrically finite tree lattice. We prove a Khintchine-Sullivan type theorem for the Hausdorff measure of the points at infinity of the tree that are well approximated by the parabolic fixed points of G. Using Bruhat-Tits…
On a finite graph, there is a natural family of Boltzmann probability measures on cycle-rooted spanning forests, parametrized by weights on cycles. For a certain subclass of those weights, we construct Gibbs measures in infinite volume, as…
This paper studies the entropy of tree-shifts of finite type with and without boundary conditions. We demonstrate that computing the entropy of a tree-shift of finite type is equivalent to solving a system of nonlinear recurrence equations.…
Using local detailed balance we rewrite the Kirchhoff formula for stationary distribution of Markov jump processes in terms of a physically interpretable tree-ensemble. We use that arborification of path-space integration to derive a…
We study an equilibrium statistical mechanical model of tree graphs which are made up of a linear subgraph (the spine) to which leaves are attached. We prove that the model has two phases, a generic phase where the spine becomes infinitely…
We consider an isomorphism invariant for measure-preserving systems - types of generalized entropy convergence rates. We show the connections of this invariant with the types of Shannon entropy convergence rates. In the case when they…
In this paper we investigate the geometric properties of quasi-trees, and prove some equivalent criteria. We give a general construction of a tree that approximates the ends of a geodesic space, and use this to prove that every quasi-tree…
The last decade has witnessed a growing interest in random forest models which are recognized to exhibit good practical performance, especially in high-dimensional settings. On the theoretical side, however, their predictive power remains…
Mixing for measure-preserving group actions is a fundamental notion in ergodic theory, with different phenomena arising for different acting groups. In 1993, Klaus Schmidt and Tom Ward proved that 2-mixing implies mixing of all orders for…
In this article, we propose tree edit distance with variables, which is an extension of the tree edit distance to handle trees with variables and has a potential application to measuring the similarity between mathematical formulas,…
We study random trees which are invariant in law under the operation of contracting each edge independently with probability $p\in(0,1)$. We show that all such trees can be constructed through Poissonian sampling from a certain class of…
We extend the notion of 'homomorphism-homogeneity' to a wider class of kinds of maps than previously studied, and we investigate the relations between the resulting notions of homomorphism-homogeneity, giving several examples. We also give…
Entropies of mixing can be derived directly from the parent distributions of extreme value theory. They correspond to pseudo-additive entropies in the case of Pareto and power function distributions, while to the Shannon entropy in the case…
Motivated by the Bruhat and Cartan decompositions of general linear groups over local fields, double cosets of the group of label preserving automorphisms of a label-regular tree over the fixator of an end of the tree and over maximal…
The Shannon entropy is a fundamental measure for quantifying diversity and model complexity in fields such as information theory, ecology, and genetics. However, many existing studies assume that the number of species is known, an…
The tree metric theorem provides a combinatorial four point condition that characterizes dissimilarity maps derived from pairwise compatible split systems. A similar (but weaker) four point condition characterizes dissimilarity maps derived…
We consider Bratteli diagrams of finite rank (not necessarily simple) and ergodic invariant measures with respect to the cofinal equivalence relation on their path spaces. It is shown that every ergodic invariant measure (finite or…
Let $\Om$ be a Borel subset of $S^\Bbb N$ where $S$ is countable. A measure is called exchangeable on $\Om$, if it is supported on $\Om$ and is invariant under every Borel automorphism of $\Om$ which permutes at most finitely many…
