Following works of Furstenberg and Nevo and Zimmer we present an outline of a theory of stationary (or m-stationary) dynamical systems for a general acting group G equipped with a probability measure m. Our purpose is two-fold: First to…
Let $G$ be a locally compact second countable group equipped with an admissible non-degenerate Borel probability measure $\mu$. We generalize the notion of $\mu$-stationary systems to $\mu$-stationary $G$-factor maps $\pi: (X,\nu)\to…
Using a structure theorem from [FG2010] we prove a version of multiple recurrence for sets of positive measure in a general stationary dynamical system.
Understanding which system structure can sustain stable dynamics is a fundamental step in the design and analysis of large scale dynamical systems. Towards this goal, we investigate here the structural stability of systems with a random…
We study measure preserving systems, called Furstenberg systems, that model the statistical behavior of sequences defined by smooth functions with at most polynomial growth. Typical examples are the sequences $(n^\frac{3}{2})$,…
In 1975 Szemer\'edi proved the long-standing conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and Tur\'an that any subset of $\bbZ$ having positive upper Banach density contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions. Szemer\'edi's proof was entirely…
According to the Furstenberg-Zimmer structure theorem, every measure-preserving system has a maximal distal factor, and is weak mixing relative to that factor. Furstenberg and Katznelson used this structural analysis of measure-preserving…
We prove a structural result for measure preserving systems naturally associated with any finite collection of multiplicative functions that take values on the complex unit disc. We show that these systems have no irrational spectrum and…
We review recent developments in structural stability as applied to key topics in general relativity. For a nonlinear dynamical system arising from the Einstein equations by a symmetry reduction, bifurcation theory fully characterizes the…
We revisit processes generated by iterated random functions driven by a stationary and ergodic sequence. Such a process is called strongly stable if a random initialization exists, for which the process is stationary and ergodic, and for…
We consider random perturbations of discrete-time dynamical systems. We give sufficient conditions for the stochastic stability of certain classes of maps, in a strong sense. This improves the main result in J. F. Alves, V. Araujo, Random…
We study combinatorial configurations with the associated point and line graphs being strongly regular. Examples not belonging to known classes such as partial geometries and their generalizations or elliptic semiplanes are constructed.…
We give examples of sequences defined by smooth functions of intermediate growth, and we study the Furstenberg systems that model their statistical behavior. In particular, we show that the systems are Bernoulli. We do so by studying…
We study projective stationary sets. The Projective Stationary Reflection principle is the statement that every projective stationary set contains an increasing continuous $\in$--chain of length $\omega_1$. We show that if Martin's Maximum…
This is an introduction of a book called "strong regularity", to appear at Ast\'erisque, containing: 1) Yoccoz' proof of Jakobson theorem www.college-de-france.fr/media/jean-christophe-yoccoz/UPL7416254474776698194_Jakobson_jcy.pdf 2)…
We introduce the notion of a rational dynamical system extending the classical notion of a topological dynamical system and we prove (multiple) recurrence results for such systems via a partition theorem for the rational numbers proved by…
We continue development of the theory of Markov systems initiated in \cite{Wer1}. In this paper, we introduce fundamental Markov systems associated with random dynamical systems and show that the proof of the uniqueness and empiricalness of…
In neuroscience, optics and condensed matter there is ample physical evidence for multistable dynamical systems, that is, systems with a large number of attractors. The known mathematical mechanisms that lead to multiple attractors are…
We prove additive and multiplicative partition theorems, obtaining combinatorial results for p-quasicyclic groups, where p is a prime number. We also get density results for p-quasicyclic groups via left F{\o}lner sequences of non-empty…
Given the significance of physical measures in understanding the complexity of dynamical systems as well as the noisy nature of real-world systems, investigating the stability of physical measures under noise perturbations is undoubtedly a…
