In the first part of this thesis, we present a general technique for establishing local and uniform continuity bounds for Schur concave functions. Our technique uses a particular relationship between majorization and the trace distance…

Motivated by Ziegler's computability-theoretic characterisation of finite absolute presentability between groups, we prove an analogous theorem in symbolic dynamics. We introduce the notion of one subshift being finitely determined over…

We show that the (topological) full group of a minimal pseudogroup over the Cantor set satisfies various rigidity phenomena of topological dynamical and combinatorial nature. Our main result applies to its possible homomorphisms into other…

Chung and Jiang showed that, if a one ended group contains an infinite order element, then every continuous cocycle over the full shift on that group, taking values in a discrete group, must be cohomologous to a homomorphism. We show that…

In this paper we study ergodic theory of countable Markov shifts. These are dynamical systems defined over non-compact spaces. Our main result relates the escape of mass, the measure theoretic entropy, and the entropy at infinity of the…

The structure of the Tate-Shafarevich groups of a class of elliptic curves over global function fields is determined. These are known to be finite abelian groups from the monograph [1] and hence they are direct sums of finite cyclic groups…

For the action of a group $G$ by homeomorphisms on a space $X$, the automorphism group $\mathrm{Aut}(X,G)$ consists of all self-homeomorphisms of $X$ which commute with $x \mapsto g \cdot x$ for every $g \in G$. A theorem of Ryan shows that…

The recently developed theory of Schur rings over a finite cyclic group is generalized to Schur rings over a ring R being a product of Galois rings of coprime characteristics. It is proved that if the characteristic of R is odd, then as in…

This paper uncovers and exploits a link between a central object in harmonic analysis, the so-called Schur functions, and the very hot topic of symmetry protected topological phases of quantum matter. This connection is found in the setting…

Controlled topology is one of the main tools for proving the isomorphism conjecture concerning the algebraic $K$-theory of group rings. In this article we dive into this machinery in two examples: when the group is infinite cyclic and when…

We study zero entropy automorphisms of a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$. Our goal is to bring to light some new structures of the action on the cohomology of $X$, in terms of the so-called dynamical filtrations on $H^{1,1}(X, {\mathbb R})$.…

For classical dynamical systems, the polynomial entropy serves as a refined invariant of the topological entropy. In the setting of categorical dynamical systems, that is, triangulated categories endowed with an endofunctor, we develop the…

There are two main subjects in this paper. 1) For a topological dynamical system $(X,T)$ we study the topological entropy of its "functional envelopes" (the action of $T$ by left composition on the space of all continuous self-maps or on…

We study a class of dynamical systems given by measure preserving actions of the group $Z^d$ or $R^d$ and generating a set of spectral measures with an extremal rate of the Fourier coefficient decay: $\Hat\sigma(n) = O(|n|^{-1/2+\epsilon})$…

We explore the relationship between Turing completeness and topological entropy of dynamical systems. We first prove that a natural class of Turing machines that we call "branching Turing machines" (which includes most of the known examples…

We endow a topological group $(G, \tau)$ with a coarse structure defined by the smallest group ideal $S_{\tau} $ on $G$ containing all converging sequences with their limits and denote the obtained coarse group by $(G, S_{\tau})$. If $G$ is…

We generalize Brudno's theorem of $1$-dimensional shift dynamical system to $\mathbb{Z}^d$ (or $\mathbb{Z}_+^d$) subshifts. That is to say, in $\mathbb{Z}^d$ (or $\mathbb{Z}^d_+$) subshift, the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy is equivalent to the…

For a class of robustly transitive diffeomorphisms on $\mathbb T^4$ introduced by Shub in [24], satisfying an additional bunching condition, we show that there exits a $C^2$ open and $C^r$ dense subset $\mathcal U^r$, $2\leq r\leq\infty$,…

We study the locally compact abelian groups in the class $\mathfrak E_{<\infty}$, that is, having only continuous endomorphisms of finite topological entropy, and in its subclass $\mathfrak E_0$, that is, having all continuous endomorphisms…

The Schur limit of the superconformal index of a four-dimensional N = 2 superconformal field theory encodes rich physical information about the protected spectrum of the theory. For a Lagrangian model, this limit of the index can be…
