Let $E(X,f)$ be the Ellis semigroup of a dynamical system $(X,f)$ where $X$ is a compact metric space. We analyze the cardinality of $E(X,f)$ for a compact countable metric space $X$. A characterization when $E(X,f)$ and $E(X,f)^* = E(X,f)…
We study dynamical systems with the property that all the nontrivial factors have infinite topological entropy (or, positive mean dimension). We establish an ``if and only if'' condition for this property among a typical class of dynamical…
We survey an area of recent development, relating dynamics to theoretical computer science. We discuss the theoretical limits of simulation and computation of interesting quantities in dynamical systems. We will focus on central objects of…
Given a dynamical system $(X,f)$, we let $E(X,f)$ denote its Ellis semigroup and $E(X,f)^* = E(X,f) \setminus \{f^n : n \in \mathbb{N}\}$. We analyze the Ellis semigroup of a dynamical system having a compact metric countable space as a…
We show that if a continuous self-map of a compact metric space is h-expansive and satisfies the shadowing property, then every non-empty uniformly rigid subset is zero-dimensional, and hence the set of periodic points is also…
We establish necessary and sufficient conditions guaranteeing compactness of embeddings of fractional Sobolev spaces, Besov spaces, and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces, in the general context of quasi-metric-measure spaces. Although stated in the…
For a continuous map $T: X\rightarrow X$ on a compact metric space $(X,d)$, we say that a function $f: X \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ has the property $\mathscr{P}_T$ if its time averages along forward orbits of $T$ are maximized at a periodic…
The Takagi function $T:[0,1]\to \mathbb{R}$ is a classical example of a continuous nowhere differentiable function. In this paper, we study the discrete dynamical system generated by the Takagi function. First, we prove that for almost…
We introduce and study two properties of dynamical systems: topologically transitive and topologically mixing under the set-valued setting. We prove some implications of these two topological properties for set-valued functions and…
We present a new method of analysis of measure-preserving dynamical systems, based on frequency analysis and ergodic theory, which extends our earlier work [1]. Our method employs the novel concept of harmonic time average [2], and is…
We prove that a closed convex subset of a Banach space is (super-)weakly compact if and only if it is (super)-ergodic. As a consequence we deduce that super weakly compact sets are characterized by the fixed point property for continuous…
An ergodic support $X_0$ of a dynamical system $(X,T)$ with metrizable compact phase space $X$ is the set of all points $x\in X$ such that the corresponding sequence of empirical measures $\delta_{x,n} = (\delta_x +\delta_{Tx}+\dots…
We study the uniform ergodicity property for non-invertible topological and measure-preserving dynamical systems. It is shown that for topological dynamical systems uniform ergodicity is equivalent to eventually periodicity and that for…
A `symbolic dynamical system' is a continuous transformation F:X-->X of a closed perfect subset X of A^V, where A is a finite set and V is countable. (Examples include subshifts, odometers, cellular automata, and automaton networks.) The…
The axiomatic theory of ordinary differential equations, owing to its simplicity, can provide a useful framework to describe various generalizations of dynamical systems. In this study, we consider how dynamical properties can be…
The notion of $\Delta$-weakly mixing set is introduced, which shares similar properties of weakly mixing sets. It is shown that if a dynamical system has positive topological entropy, then the collection of $\Delta$-weakly mixing sets is…
We look at the preservation of various notions of shadowing in discrete dynamical systems under inverse limits, products, factor maps and the induced maps for symmetric products and hyperspaces. The shadowing properties we consider are the…
An ergodic dynamical system $\mathbf{X}$ is called dominant if it is isomorphic to a generic extension of itself. It was shown in an earlier paper by Glasner, Thouvenot and Weiss that Bernoulli systems with finite entropy are dominant. In…
Let $d\in\mathbb{Z}$ and $p_i$ be an integral polynomial with $p_i(0)=0,1\leq i\leq d$. It is shown that if $S$ is thickly syndetic in $\mathbb{Z}$, then $\{(m,n)\in\mathbb{Z}^2:m+p_i(n),m+p_2(n),\ldots,m+p_d(n)\in S\}$ is thickly syndetic…
We consider when there is absolute or unconditional convergence of series of various types of stochastic processes. These processes include differences of averages in ergodic theory and harmonic analysis, like the classical Cesaro average…
