Entropy metrics are nonlinear measures to quantify the complexity of time series. Among them, permutation entropy is a common metric due to its robustness and fast computation. Multivariate entropy metrics techniques are needed to analyse…

We study the scaling scenery and limit geometry of invariant measures for the non-conformal toral endomorphism $(x,y) \mapsto (mx \mod 1,ny \mod 1)$ that are Bernoulli measures for the natural Markov partition. We show that the statistics…

We show that $C^\infty$ surface diffeomorphisms with positive topological entropy have at most finitely many ergodic measures of maximal entropy in general, and at most one in the topologically transitive case. This answers a question of…

We obtain the following dichotomy for accessible partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms of 3-dimensional manifolds having compact center leaves: either there is a unique entropy maximizing measure, this measure has the Bernoulli property and…

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…

Suppose R is a finite commutative ring of prime characteristic, A is a finite R-module, M:=Z^D x N^E, and F is an R-linear cellular automaton on A^M. If mu is an F-invariant measure which is multiply shift-mixing in a certain way, then we…

This paper proposes a computationally efficient algorithm for distributed fusion in a sensor network in which multi-Bernoulli (MB) filters are locally running in every sensor node for multi-target tracking. The generalized Covariance…

For strongly positively recurrent countable state Markov shifts, we bound the distance between an invariant measure and the measure of maximal entropy in terms of the difference of their entropies. This extends an earlier result for…

If $(M,g)$ is a smooth compact rank $1$ Riemannian manifold without focal points, it is shown that the measure $\mu_{\max}$ of maximal entropy for the geodesic flow is unique. In this article, we study the statistic properties and prove…

We consider topological Markov chains (also called Markov shifts) on countable graphs. We show that a transient graph can be extended to a recurrent graph of equal entropy which is either positive recurrent of null recurrent, and we give an…

We initiate a study of the following problem: Given a continuous domain $\Omega$ along with its convex hull $\mathcal{K}$, a point $A \in \mathcal{K}$ and a prior measure $\mu$ on $\Omega$, find the probability density over $\Omega$ whose…

Let $G$ be a countable discrete sofic group. We define a concept of uniform mixing for measure-preserving $G$-actions and show that it implies completely positive sofic entropy. When $G$ contains an element of infinite order, we use this to…

Quantum mechanics is an extremely successful and accurate physical theory, yet since its inception, it has been afflicted with numerous conceptual difficulties. The primary subject of this thesis is the theory of entropic quantum dynamics…

We introduce the notion of combinatorial encoding of continuous dynamical systems and suggest the first examples, which are the most interesting and important, namely, the combinatorial encoding of a Bernoulli process with continuous state…

In this paper we calculate Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy $h_M(S)$ of the generalized Markov shift associated with a contractive Markov system (CMS) \cite{Wer1} using the coding map constructed in \cite{Wer3}. We show that…

We prove a max-min theorem for weak containment in the context of algebraic actions. Namely, we show that given an algebraic action of $G$ on $X,$ there is a maximal, closed $G$-invariant subgroup $Y$ of $X$ so that the action of $G$ on $Y$…

Let $\Sigma$ be a finite alphabet, $\Omega=\Sigma^{\mathbb{Z}^{d}}$ equipped with the shift action, and $\mathcal{I}$ the simplex of shift-invariant measures on $\Omega$. We study the relation between the restriction $\mathcal{I}_n$ of…

In this paper, we define the so-called square entropy and prove that n-to-1 full zip shift maps are intrinsically ergodic. Furthermore, we show that square entropy characterizes uniform n-to-1 transformations of $(m,l)$-Bernoulli type that…

This is a revised version of the doctoral dissertation of the same title, written under the supervision of Professor Krzysztof Stempak in 2019. For general (possibly nondoubling) metric measure spaces various properties of the associated…

We consider the random $\beta$-transformation $K_{\beta}$, defined on $\{0,1\}^{\mathbb N}\times[0, \frac{\lfloor\beta\rfloor}{\beta-1}]$, that generates all possible expansions of the form $x=\sum_{i=0}^{\infty}\frac{a_i}{\beta^i}$, where…
