R. Kaufman and M. Tsujii proved that the Fourier transform of self-similar measures has a power decay outside of a sparse set of frequencies. We present a version of this result for homogeneous self-similar measures, with quantitative…

In this paper we show the existence of the generalized Eberlein decomposition for Fourier transformable measures with Meyer set support. We prove that each of the three components is also Fourier transformable and has Meyer set support. We…

We construct a natural invariant measure concentrated on the set of square-free numbers, and invariant under the shift. We prove that the corresponding dynamical system is isomorphic to a translation on a compact, Abelian group. This…

In the present paper, we study the distribution of the return points in the fibers for a RDS (random dynamical systems) nonuniformly expanding preserving an ergodic probability, we also show the abundance of nonlacunarity of hyperbolic…

We introduce and investigate using Hilbert modules the properties of the {\em Fourier algebra} $A(G)$ for a locally compact groupoid $G$. We establish a duality theorem for such groupoids in terms of multiplicative module maps. This…

Given a transformation $T$ of a standard measure space $(X,\mu)$, let $\Cal M(T)$ denote the set of spectral multiplicities of the Koopman operator $U_T$ defined in $L^2(X,\mu)\ominus\Bbb C$ by $U_Tf:=f\circ T$. It is discussed in this…

Every word $w$ in the free group $F_r$ of rank $r$ induces a probability measure (the $w$-measure) on every compact group $G$, by substitution of Haar-random $G$-elements in the letters. This measure is determined by its Fourier…

In this note we study two related questions. (1) For a compact group G, what are the ranges of the convolution maps on A(GXG) given for u,v in A(G) by $u X v |-> u*v' ($v'(s)=v(s^{-1})$) and $u X v |-> u*v$? (2) For a locally compact group…

We extend some properties of random walks on hyperbolic groups to random walks on convergence groups. In particular we prove that if a convergence group $G$ acts on a compact metrizable space $M$ with the convergence property then we can…

Ergodic Optimization is the process of finding invariant probability measures that maximize the integral of a given function. It has been conjectured that "most" functions are optimized by measures supported on a periodic orbit, and it has…

Based on the properties of distributions and measures with discrete support, we investigate temperate almost periodic distributions on the Euclidean space and connection with their Fourier transforms. We also study relations between the…

Let $T \colon M \to M$ be a nonuniformly expanding dynamical system, such as logistic or intermittent map. Let $v \colon M \to \mathbb{R}^d$ be an observable and $v_n = \sum_{k=0}^{n-1} v \circ T^k$ denote the Birkhoff sums. Given a…

Let $f:M\to M$ be a $C^{1+\epsilon}$-map on a smooth Riemannian manifold $M$ and let $\Lambda\subset M$ be a compact $f$-invariant locally maximal set. In this paper we obtain several results concerning the distribution of the periodic…

Given a cut and project scheme and a pre-compact Borel window we show that almost surely all positions of the window give rise to point sets with Besicovitch almost periodic Dirac combs. In particular, all those positions lead to pure point…

We investigate random Bernoulli convolutions, namely, probability measures given by the infinite convolution \[ \mu_\omega = \mathop{\circledast}_{k=1}^{\infty} \left( \frac{\delta_0 + \delta_{\lambda_1 \lambda_2 \ldots \lambda_{k-1}…

We prove that if a Borel probability measure (\mu) on (\T) is invariant under the action of a "large" multiplicative semigroup (lower logarithmic density is positive) and the action of the whole semigroup is ergodic then (\mu) is either…

Let $G$ be an amenable discrete countable infinite group, $A$ a finite set, and $(\mu_g)_{g\in G}$ a family of probability measures on $A$ such that $\inf_{g\in G}\min_{a\in A}\mu_g(a)>0$. It is shown (among other results) that if the…

We derive new explicit bounds for the total variation distance between two convolution products of $n$ probability distributions, one of which having identical convolution factors. Approximations by finite signed measures of arbitrary order…
