We study the fluctuations of ergodic sums using global and local specifications on periodic points. We obtain Lindeberg-type central limit theorems in both situations. As an application, when the system possesses a unique measure of maximal…

In this paper we study aspects of the ergodic theory of the geodesic flow on a non-compact negatively curved manifold. It is a well known fact that every continuous potential on a compact metric space has a maximizing measure.…

In this work, we consider an inhomogeneous (discrete time) Markov chain and are interested in its long time behavior. We provide sufficient conditions to ensure that some of its asymptotic properties can be related to the ones of a…

We use Pesin theory to study possible equilibrium measures for piecewise monotone maps of the interval. The maps may have unbounded derivative.

Expanding Thurston maps were introduced by M. Bonk and D. Meyer with motivation from complex dynamics and Cannon's conjecture from geometric group theory via Sullivan's dictionary. In this paper, we show that the entropy map of an expanding…

We prove the entropic continuity of Lyapunov exponent for C^r maps of the interval or of the circle with large entropy for r>1, without making any assumptions on the set of critical points. A consequence is the upper semi-continuity of…

Given an irreducible subshift of finite type X, a subshift Y, a factor map \pi : X \to Y, and an ergodic invariant measure \nu on Y, there can exist more than one ergodic measure on X which projects to \nu and has maximal entropy among all…

The dissertation describes ergodic properties of some stochastic dynamical systems generated by Markov chains with values in the state space which is a Polish space. The mathematical model describing the process of cell division is…

Let $f$ be an holomorphic endomorphism of $\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^k$. We construct by using coding techniques a class of ergodic measures as limits of non-uniform probability measures on preimages of points. We show that they have large…

We show that the conjugacy class of an eventually expanding continuous piecewise affine interval map is contained in a smooth codimension 1 submanifold of parameter space. In particular conjugacy classes have empty interior. This is based…

We prove quantum ergodicity for a family of graphs that are obtained from ergodic one-dimensional maps of an interval using a procedure introduced by Pakonski et al (J. Phys. A, v. 34, 9303-9317 (2001)). As observables we take the L^2…

The main purpose of this paper is to prove the mean ergodic theorem for nonexpansive mappings and semigroups in locally compact Hadamard spaces, including finite dimensional Hadamard manifolds. The main tool for proving ergodic convergence…

We present a computational study of a visualization method for invariant sets based on ergodic partition theory, first proposed in [1,2]. The algorithms for computation of the time averages of observables on phase space are developed and…

We introduce the concepts of Baire Ergodicity and Ergodic Formalism, employing them to study topological and statistical attractors. Specifically, we establish the existence and finiteness of such attractors and provide applications for…

In this paper we study measurable dynamics for the widest reasonable class of smooth one dimensional maps. Three principle decompositions are described in this class : decomposition of the global measure-theoretical attractor into primitive…

We present some new results on sample path optimality for the ergodic control problem of a class of non-degenerate diffusions controlled through the drift. The hypothesis most often used in the literature to ensure the existence of an a.s.…

In Pires {\it et al.} [Phys. Rev. E 84, 066210 (2011)] intermittent maps are considered, and the tight relationship between correlation decay of smooth observables and large deviations estimates, as for instance employed in Artuso and…

Measuring entropy production of a system directly from the experimental data is highly desirable since it gives a quantifiable measure of the time-irreversibility for non-equilibrium systems and can be used as a cost function to optimize…

We propose a compression-based version of the empirical entropy of a finite string over a finite alphabet. Whereas previously one considers the naked entropy of (possibly higher order) Markov processes, we consider the sum of the…

Many systems across the sciences evolve through a combination of multiplicative growth and diffusive transport. In the presence of disorder, these systems tend to form localized structures which alternate between long periods of relative…
