We study a continuous matrix-valued Anderson-type model. Both leading Lyapunov exponents of this model are proved to be positive and distinct for all ernergies in $(2,+\infty)$ except those in a discrete set, which leads to absence of…

We present numerical and analytical results for a special kind of one-dimensional probabilistic cellular automaton, the so called Domany-Kinzel automaton. It is shown that the phase boundary separating the active and the recently found…

Answering a question of Glasner, we show that any finitely generated nonabelian free group has a minimal null action which is a RIM non-open extension of an effective strongly proximal action.

We consider the low-energy effective action for the Coulomb phase of an $N = 2$ supersymmetric gauge theory with a rank one gauge group. The $N = 2$ superspace formalism is naturally invariant under an $SL(2, {\bf Z})$ group of duality…

Group cellular automata are continuous, shift-commuting endomorphisms of $G^\mathbb{Z}$, where $G$ is a finite group. We provide an easy-to-check characterization of expansivity for group cellular automata on abelian groups and we prove…

We provide an easily checkable algebraic characterization of positive expansivity for Additive Cellular Automata over a finite abelian group. First of all, an easily checkable characterization of positive expansivity is provided for the non…

We consider the range of possible dynamics of cellular automata (CA) on two-sided beta-shifts $S_\beta$. We show that any reversible CA $F:S_\beta\to S_\beta$ has an almost equicontinuous direction whenever $S_\beta$ is not sofic. This has…

We prove a conjecture of P. Guillon and G. Richard by showing that cellular automata that eventually fix all cells to a fixed symbol 0 are nilpotent on S^Z^d for all d. We also briefly discuss nilpotency on other subshifts, and show that…

In this paper we study the problem of the existence of a least-action principle for invertible, second-order dynamical systems, discrete in time and space. We show that, when the configuration space is finite, a least-action principle does…

We prove that the unique solution to the Yang-Yang equation arising in the context of the thermodynamics of the so-called non-linear Schr\"{o}dinger model admits a low-temperature expansion to all orders. Our approach provides a rigorous…

This paper aims to study the asymptotic expansion of analytic torsion forms associated with a certain series of flat bundles. We prove the existence of the full expansion and give a formula for the sub-leading term, while Bismut-Ma-Zhang…

Given a new definition for the entropy of a cellular automata acting on a two-dimensional space, we propose an inequality between the entropy of the shift on a two-dimensional lattice and some angular analog of Lyapunov exponents.

We propose a new method to construct an isotropic cellular automaton corresponding to a reaction-diffusion equation. The method consists of replacing the diffusion term and the reaction term of the reaction-diffusion equation with a random…

We study non-equilibrium defect accumulation dynamics on a cellular automaton trajectory: a branching walk process in which a defect creates a successor on any neighborhood site whose update it affects. On an infinite lattice, defects…

We propose a four-way classification of two-dimensional semi-totalistic cellular automata that is different than Wolfram's, based on two questions with yes-or-no answers: do there exist patterns that eventually escape any finite bounding…

Topological dynamics of cellular automata (CA), inherited from classical dynamical systems theory, has been essentially studied in dimension 1. This paper focuses on 2D CA and aims at showing that the situation is different and more…

We develop a theory for non-planar interaction between two identical type I spatial solitons propagating at opposite, but arbitrary transverse angles in quadratic nonlinear (or so-called chi(2)) bulk media. We predict quantitatively the…

We prove a Lichnerowicz type vanishing theorem for non-compact spin manifolds admiting proper cocompact actions. This extends a previous result of Ziran Liu who proves it for the case where the acting group is unimodular.

In this paper we obtain the precise description of the asymptotic behavior of the solution $u$ of $$ \partial_t u+(-\Delta)^{\frac{\theta}{2}}u=0\quad\mbox{in}\quad{\bf R}^N\times(0,\infty), \qquad u(x,0)=\varphi(x)\quad\mbox{in}\quad{\bf…

Hochman asked whether there exists a cellular automaton $F$ such that every cellular automaton is a factor of $F$ in the dynamical sense. In particular, we do not require the factor map to commute with the spatial shifts. We show that no…
