It is shown that an arbitrary function from $D\subset \R^n$ to $\R^m$ will become $C^{0,\alpha}$-continuous in almost every $x\in D$ after restriction to a certain subset with limit point $x$. For $n\geq m$ differentiability can be…

In this article, we pay attention to transitive dynamical systems having the shadowing property and the entropy functions are upper semicontinuous. As for these dynamical systems, when we consider ergodic optimization restricted on the…

From a dynamical viewpoint, basic phase transitions of statistical mechanics can be regarded as a breaking of ergodicity. While many random models exhibiting such transitions at the thermodynamics limit exist, finite-dimensional examples…

We prove that the solid ergodicity property is stable with respect to taking coinduction for a fairly large class of coinduced action. More precisely, assume that $\Sigma<\Gamma$ are countable groups such that $g\Sigma g^{-1}\cap \Sigma$ is…

Let $\Sigma$ be a closed surface other than the sphere, the torus, the projective plane or the Klein bottle. We construct a continuum of p.m.p. ergodic minimal profinite actions for the fundamental group of $\Sigma$, that are topologically…

We introduce the notion of common conditional expectation to investigate Birkhoff's ergodic theorem and subadditive ergodic theorem for invariant upper probabilities. If in addition, the upper probability is ergodic, we construct an…

Recent work has shown how information theory extends conventional full-rationality game theory to allow bounded rational agents. The associated mathematical framework can be used to solve constrained optimization problems. This is done by…

In this paper we are concerned with the study of additive ergodic averages in multiplicative systems and the investigation of the "pretentious" dynamical behaviour of these systems. We prove a mean ergodic theorem (Theorem A) that…

Let $X$ be a compact complex surface. Consider a finitely supported probability measure $\mu$ on $\text{Aut}(X)$ such that $\Gamma_{\mu} = \langle \text{Supp}(\mu)\rangle<\text{Aut}(X)$ is non-elementary. We do not assume that…

We extend the theory of ergodic optimization and maximizing measures to the non-commutative field of C*-dynamical systems. We then employ this ergodic optimization machinery to provide an alternate characterization of unique erogdicity of…

This paper proves various results concerning non-ergodic actions of locally compact groups and particularly Borel cocycles defined over such actions. The general philosophy is to reduce the study of the cocycle to the study of its…

A wider selection of step sizes is explored for the distributed subgradient algorithm for multi-agent optimization problems, for both time-invariant and time-varying communication topologies. The square summable requirement of the step…

A successful method to describe the asymptotic behavior of various deterministic and stochastic processes such as asymptotically autonomous differential equations or stochastic approximation processes is to relate it to an appropriately…

Let T be a free ergodic measure-preserving action of an abelian group G on (X,mu). The crossed product algebra R_T has two distinguished masas, the image C_T of L^infty(X,mu) and the algebra S_T generated by the image of G. We conjecture…

We show that a Schr\"odinger operator $A_{\delta, \alpha}$ with a $\delta$-interaction of strength $\alpha$ supported on a bounded or unbounded $C^2$-hypersurface $\Sigma \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, $d\ge 2$, can be approximated in the norm…

We prove that if a countable group $\Gamma$ contains infinite commuting subgroups $H, H'\subset \Gamma$ with $H$ non-amenable and $H'$ ``weakly normal'' in $\Gamma$, then any measure preserving $\Gamma$-action on a probability space which…

Let $U$ be a unitary operator acting on the Hilbert space H, and $\alpha:\{1,..., m\}\mapsto\{1,..., k\}$ a partition of the set $\{1,..., m\}$. We show that the ergodic average $$ \frac{1}{N^{k}}\sum_{n_{1},...,n_{k}=0}^{N-1}…

Depending on the behaviour of the complex-valued electromagnetic potential in the neighbourhood of infinity, pseudomodes of one-dimensional Dirac operators corresponding to large pseudoeigenvalues are constructed. This is a first systematic…

We introduce sufficient conditions on discrete singular integral operators for their maximal truncations to satisfy a sparse bound. The latter imply a range of quantitative weighted inequalities, which are new. As an application, we prove…

We propose an extension of ergodic theory which focuses on the identification of ergodicity in terms of the uniqueness of the invariant measure. We first explain the concept for the doubling maps, which can be analyzed using Fourier…
