We prove that if a set is `large' in the sense of Erd\H{o}s, then it approximates arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions in a strong quantitative sense. More specifically, expressing the error in the approximation in terms of the gap…

We study the properties of `infinite-volume mixing' for two classes of intermittent maps: expanding maps $[0,1] \longrightarrow [0,1]$ with an indifferent fixed point at 0 preserving an infinite, absolutely continuous measure, and expanding…

It is well-known that for a quickly increasing sequence $(n_k)_{k \geq 1}$ the functions $(\cos 2 \pi n_k x)_{k \geq 1}$ show a behavior which is typical for sequences of independent random variables. If the growth condition on $(n_k)_{k…

We consider mappings, which are structure consisting of a single function (and possibly some number of unary relations) and address the problem of approximating a continuous mapping by a finite mapping. This problem is the inverse problem…

We study the approximability of Max Ones when the number of variable occurrences is bounded by a constant. For conservative constraint languages (i.e., when the unary relations are included) we give a complete classification when the number…

We study the statistical properties of piecewise expanding maps in the general setting of metric measure spaces. We provide sufficient conditions for exponential mixing of such systems with explicit estimates on the constants. We also…

We study part sizes of supercritical locally restricted sequential structures. This extends previous results about locally restricted integer compositions and part sizes in smooth supercritical compositional structures. Applications are…

We present necessary conditions for monotonicity, in one form or another, of fixed point iterations of mappings that violate the usual nonexpansive property. We show that most reasonable notions of linear-type monotonicity of fixed point…

We describe the shrinking target problem for random iterated function systems which semi-conjugate to a random subshifts of finite type. We get the Hausdorff dimension of the set based on shrinking target problems with given targets. The…

We prove Berry-Esseen theorems and the almost sure invariance principle with rates for partial sums of the form $S_n=\sum_{j=0}^{n-1}f_j\circ T_{j-1}\circ\cdots\circ T_1\circ T_0$ where $f_j$ are functions with uniformly bounded…

This work will appear as a chapter in a forthcoming volume titled "Topics in Probabilistic Graph Theory". A theory of scaling limits for random graphs has been developed in recent years. This theory gives access to the large-scale geometric…

For any recurrent random walk (S_n)_{n>0} on R, there are increasing sequences (g_n)_{n>0} converging to infinity for which (g_n S_n)_{n>0} has at least one finite accumulation point. For one class of random walks, we give a criterion on…

We study the ergodic and statistical properties of a class of maps of the circle and of the interval of Lorenz type which present indifferent fixed points and points with unbounded derivative. These maps have been previously investigated in…

We consider the problem of succinctly encoding a static map to support approximate queries. We derive upper and lower bounds on the space requirements in terms of the error rate and the entropy of the distribution of values over keys: our…

We introduce {\it twist unimodal maps} of the interval and describe their structure. Sufficient conditions for the growth of over-rotation interval in families of maps are given.

We define a one-parameter family of entropies, each assigning a real number to any probability measure on a compact metric space (or, more generally, a compact Hausdorff space with a notion of similarity between points). These entropies…

Let $(x_n)_{n\geq0}$ be a linear recurrence sequence of order $k\geq2$ satisfying $$x_n=a_1x_{n-1}+a_2x_{n-2}+\dots+a_kx_{n-k}$$ for all integers $n\geq k$, where $a_1,\dots,a_k,x_0,\dots, x_{k-1}\in \mathbb{Z},$ with $a_k\neq0$. In 2017,…

We consider the problem of the observability of positively expansive maps by the time series associated to continuous real functions. For this purpose we prove a general result on the generic observability of a locally injective map of a…

We discuss rescaling limits for sequences of complex rational maps in one variable which approach infinity in parameter space.It is shown that any given sequence of maps of degree $d \ge 2$ has at most $2d-2$ dynamically distinct rescaling…

We give a complete expansion, at any accuracy order, for the iterated convolution of a complex valued integrable sequence in one space dimension. The remainders are estimated sharply with generalized Gaussian bounds. The result applies in…
