Using a recent Furstenberg structure theorem, we obtain Multiple Recurrence Theorems relative to any locally compact second countable Noetherian module $G$ over a syndetic ring $R$, which generalizes Furstenberg's multiple recurrence…

Furstenberg and Glasner proved that for an arbitrary k in N, any piecewise syndetic set contains k term arithmetic progressions and such collection is also piecewise syndetic in Z: They used algebraic structure of beta N. The above result…

We introduce the dynamic comparison property for minimal dynamical systems which has applications to the study of crossed product C*-algebras. We demonstrate that this property holds for a large class of systems which includes all examples…

Dynamical compactness with respect to a family as a new concept of chaoticity of a dynamical system was introduced and discussed in [22]. In this paper we continue to investigate this notion. In particular, we prove that all dynamical…

We study the structure of invariant measures for continuous automorphisms of compact metrizable abelian groups satisfying the descending chain condition. We show that the finitely supported invariant measures are weak-* dense in the space…

Extending the work of Cuntz and Vershik, we develop a general notion of independence for commuting group endomorphisms. Based on this concept, we initiate the study of irreversible algebraic dynamical systems, which can be thought of as…

We use recent advances in the theory of Furstenberg sets to prove new incidence results of Szemer\'edi--Trotter strength for $\delta$-discretized structures with Cartesian product flavor. We use these results to make progress on a number of…

Given positive integers n and m, we consider dynamical systems in which n copies of a topological space is homeomorphic to m copies of that same space. The universal such system is shown to arise naturally from the study of a C*-algebra we…

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 $(n^\frac{3}{2})$,…

We construct, in locally compact, second countable, amenable groups, sets with large density that fail to have certain combinatorial properties. For the property of being a shift of a set of measurable recurrence we show that this is…

Using a recent Furstenberg structure theorem, we obtain a quantitative multiple recurrence theorem relative to any locally compact second countable Noetherian module over a syndetic ring.

Furstenberg--Zimmer structure theory refers to the extension of the dichotomy between the compact and weakly mixing parts of a measure preserving dynamical system and the algebraic and geometric descriptions of such parts to a conditional…

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…

Using a structure theorem from [FG2010] we prove a version of multiple recurrence for sets of positive measure in a general stationary dynamical system.

We provide quantitative convergence results for continuous-time dynamical systems in metric spaces that satisfy a continuous-time analog of quasi-Fej\'er monotonicity. More precisely, we provide a (strong) convergence result for such…

The Furstenberg-S\'ark\"ozy theorem asserts that the difference set $E-E$ of a subset $E \subset \mathbb{N}$ with positive upper density intersects the image set of any polynomial $P \in \mathbb{Z}[n]$ for which $P(0)=0$. Furstenberg's…

We define a categorical framework in which we build a systematic construction that provides generic invariants for C*-algebras. The benefit is significant as we show that any invariant arising this way automatically enjoys nice properties…
