An inequality of K. Marton shows that the joint distribution of a Markov chain with uniformly contracting transition kernels exhibits concentration. We prove an analogous inequality for broadcast models on finite trees. We use this…
We study phase transitions in the thermodynamic description of Pomeau-Manneville intermittent maps from the point of view of infinite ergodic theory, which deals with diverging measure dynamical systems. For such systems, we use a…
This paper introduces an intrinsic theory of Thermodynamic Formalism for Iterated Functions Systems with general positive continuous weights (IFSw).We study the spectral properties of the Transfer and Markov operators and one of our first…
We study Markov tree-shifts given by $k$ transition matrices, one for each of its $k$ directions. We provide a method to characterize the complexity function for these tree-shifts, used to calculate the tree entropies defined by Ban and…
We study the existence of densities for distributions of piecewise deterministic Markov processes. We also obtain relationships between invariant densities of the continuous time process and that of the process observed at jump times. In…
We study the transitions to spatio-temporal intermittency in networks of randomly coupled Chate-Manneville maps. The relevant paprameters are the network connectivity, coupling strength, and the local parameter of the map. We show that the…
A random phase property establishing a link between quasi-one-dimensional random Schroedinger operators and full random matrix theory is advocated. Briefly summarized it states that the random transfer matrices placed into a normal system…
We study the arithmetic Fourier transforms of trace functions on general connected commutative algebraic groups. To do so, we first prove a generic vanishing theorem for twists of perverse sheaves by characters, and using this tool, we…
The standard Pirogov -- Sinai theory is generalized to the class of models with two modes of interaction: longitudinal and transversal. Under rather general assumptions about the longitudinal interaction and for one specific form of the…
Morse-Cerf theory considers a one-parameter family of smooth functions defined on a manifold and studies the evolution of their critical points with the parameter. This paper presents an adaptation of Morse-Cerf theory to a family of…
The paper proposes a generalization of the Park transform based on the Frenet frame, which is a special set of coordinates defined in differential geometry for space curves. The proposed geometric transform is first discussed for three…
In this paper, we develop a signal processing framework of a network without explicit knowledge of the network topology. Instead, we make use of knowledge on the distribution of operators on the network. This makes the framework flexible…
We study a mean field model of a complex network, focusing on edge and triangle densities. Our first result is the derivation of a variational characterization of the entropy density, compatible with the infinite node limit. We then…
We give a simple recipe for translating walks on Cayley graphs of a group G into a quantum operation on any irrep of G. Most properties of the classical walk carry over to the quantum operation: degree becomes the number of Kraus operators,…
The Markov Transition Field (MTF), introduced by Wang and Oates (2015), encodes a time series as a two-dimensional image by mapping each pair of time steps to the transition probability between their quantile states, estimated from a single…
We consider generalizations of Schuetzenberger's promotion operator on the set L of linear extensions of a finite poset. This gives rise to a strongly connected graph on L. In earlier work (arXiv:1205.7074), we studied promotion-based…
It has hitherto been known that in a transitive unimodular graph, each tree in the wired spanning forest has only one end a.s. We dispense with the assumptions of transitivity and unimodularity, replacing them with a much broader condition…
The focus of this article is on entropy and Markov processes. We study the properties of functionals which are invariant with respect to monotonic transformations and analyze two invariant "additivity" properties: (i) existence of a…
A great deal of significant progress has been seen in the study of information spreading on populations of networked individuals. A common point in many of past studies is that there is only one transition in the phase diagram of the final…
We describe Markov interval maps via branching systems and develop the theory of relative branching systems, characterizing when the associated representations of relative graph C*-algebras are faithful. When the Markov interval maps $f$…
