We construct countable Markov partitions for non-uniformly hyperbolic diffeomorphisms on compact manifolds of any dimension, extending earlier work of O. Sarig for surfaces. These partitions allow us to obtain symbolic coding on invariant…

Given a piecewise $C^{1+\beta}$ map of the interval, possibly with critical points and discontinuities, we construct a symbolic model for invariant probability measures with nonuniform expansion that do not approach the critical points and…

We construct Markov partitions for non-invertible and/or singular nonuniformly hyperbolic systems defined on higher dimensional Riemannian manifolds. The generality of the setup covers classical examples not treated so far, such as geodesic…

This survey describes the recent advances in the construction of Markov partitions for nonuniformly hyperbolic systems. One important feature of this development comes from a finer theory of nonuniformly hyperbolic systems, which we also…

Suppose f is a C^{1+\epsilon} surface diffeomorphism with positive topological entropy. For every positive \delta strictly smaller than the topological entropy of f we construct an invariant Borel set E such that (a) f|E has a countable…

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…

This paper surveys the recent advances in the interactions between symbolic dynamics and C*-algebras. We explain how conjugacies and orbit equivalences of both two-sided (invertible) and one-sided (noninvertible) symbolic systems may be…

If $\alpha $ is an irreducible nonexpansive ergodic automorphism of a compact abelian group $X$ (such as an irreducible nonhyperbolic ergodic toral automorphism), then $\alpha $ has no finite or infinite state Markov partitions, and there…

We construct symbolic dynamics for three dimensional flows with positive speed. More precisely, for each $\chi>0$, we code a set of full measure for every invariant probability measure which is $\chi$-hyperbolic. These include all ergodic…

In this paper we calculate the metric and folding entropies for a family of non-invertible symbolic dynamical systems $(\Sigma_{m_-,m_+}, \sigma_\phi)$ which generalizes the standard bilateral Bernoulli shifts. The space $\Sigma_{m_-,m_+}$…

For a non-generic, yet dense subset of $C^1$ expanding Markov maps of the interval we prove the existence of uncountably many Lyapunov optimizing measures which are ergodic, fully supported and have positive entropy. These measures are…

We study the dynamics near infinity of polynomial mappings $f$ in $\mathbb{C}^2$. We assume that $f$ has indeterminacy points and is non constant on the line at infinity $L_\infty$. If $L_\infty$ is $f$-attracting, we decompose the Green…

We introduce index systems, a tool for studying isolated invariant sets of dynamical systems that are not necessarily hyperbolic. The mapping of the index systems mimics the expansion and contraction of hyperbolic maps on the tangent space,…

Symbolic dynamics is a coarse-grained description of dynamics. By taking into account the ``geometry'' of the dynamics, it can be cast into a powerful tool for practitioners in nonlinear science. Detailed symbolic dynamics can be developed…

We prove that if $\Sigma_{\mathbf A}(\mathbb N)$ is an irreducible Markov shift space over $\mathbb N$ and $f:\Sigma_{\mathbf A}(\mathbb N) \rightarrow \mathbb R$ is coercive with bounded variation then there exists a maximizing probability…

The decimal expansion real numbers, familiar to us all, has a dramatic generalization to representation of dynamical system orbits by symbolic sequences. The natural way to associate a symbolic sequence with an orbit is to track its history…

This work constructs symbolic dynamics for non-uniformly hyperbolic surface maps with a set of discontinuities $D$. We allow the derivative of points nearby $D$ to be unbounded, of the order of a negative power of the distance to $D$. Under…

We associate to each discrete partial dynamical system a universal C*-algebra generated by partial isometries satisfying relations given by a Boolean algebra connected to the discrete partial dynamical system in question. We show that for…

We construct symbolic dynamics for flows with positive speed in any dimension: for each $\chi>0$, we code a set that has full measure for every invariant probability measure which is $\chi$--hyperbolic. In particular, the coded set contains…

We prove that $\mathcal{C}^2$ surface diffeomorphisms have symbolic extensions, i.e. topological extensions which are subshifts over a finite alphabet. Following the strategy of T.Downarowicz and A.Maass \cite{Dow} we bound the local…
