We study minimal idempotents $J^{\mathrm{min}}(X)$ in the Ellis semigroup $E(X)$ associated with a Floyd-Auslander system $(X,T)$. We show that $(X,T)$ is non-tame if and only if $|J^{\mathrm{min}}(X)| > 2^{\aleph_0}$, which happens exactly…

The Ellis semigroup of a topological dynamical system contains algebraic, topological and dynamical information. It is invariant under conjugacy. Despite this wealth of structure, two non-conjugate dynamical systems can have the same Ellis…

Let $E(X,f)$ be the Ellis semigroup of a dynamical system $(X,f)$ where $X$ is a compact metric space. We analyze the cardinality of $E(X,f)$ for a compact countable metric space $X$. A characterization when $E(X,f)$ and $E(X,f)^* = E(X,f)…

We introduce the {\it Ellis semigroup} of a nonautonomous discrete dynamical system $(X,f_{1,\infty})$ when $X$ is a metric compact space. The underlying set of this semigroup is the pointwise closure of $\{f\sp{n}_1 \, |\, n\in…

A dynamical version of the Bourgain-Fremlin-Talagrand dichotomy shows that the enveloping semigroup of a dynamical system is either very large and contains a topological copy of the Stone-Cech compactification of the natural numbers, or it…

We consider discrete dynamical systems whose phase spaces are compact metrizable countable spaces. In the first part of the article, we study some properties that guarantee the continuity of all functions of the corresponding Ellis…

The notion of a proper Ellis semigroup compactification is introduced. Ellis's functional approach shows how to obtain them from totally bounded equiuniformities on a phase space $X$ when the acting group $G$ is with the topology of…

In the paper we study the semigroup $\mathscr{C}_{\mathbb{Z}}$ which is a generalization of the bicyclic semigroup. We describe main algebraic properties of the semigroup $\mathscr{C}_{\mathbb{Z}}$ and prove that every non-trivial…

For topological dynamical systems $(X,T,\sigma)$ with abelian group $T$ which admit an equicontinuous factor $\pi:(X,T,\sigma)\to (Y,T,\delta)$ the Ellis semigroup $E(X)$ is an extension of $Y$ by its subsemigroup $E^{fib}(X)$ of elements…

It is shown that the Ellis semigroup of a $\mathbb Z$-action on a compact totally disconnected space is completely regular if and only if forward proximality coincides with forward asymptoticity and backward proximality coincides with…

A dynamical version of the Bourgain-Fremlin-Talagrand dichotomy shows that the enveloping semigroup of a dynamical system is either very large and contains a topological copy of $\beta \N$, or it is a "tame" topological space whose topology…

Let $(X,G)$ be a minimal equicontinuous dynamical system, where $X$ is a compact metric space and $G$ some topological group acting on $X$. Under very mild assumptions, we show that the class of regular almost automorphic extensions of…

A group topology is said to be linear if open subgroups form a base of neighborhoods of the identity element. It is proved that the existence of a nondiscrete extremally disconnected group of Ulam nonmeasurable cardinality with linear…

Suppose that $X$ be a nonempty set. Denote by $\mathcal{T}(X)$ the full transformation semigroup on $X$. For $\varnothing \neq Z\subseteq Y\subseteq X$, let $\mathcal{T}(X,Y,Z)=\{\alpha \in \mathcal{T}(X): Y\alpha \subseteq Z \}$. Then…

Let $X$ be a compact metric countable space, let $f:X\to X$ be a homeomorphism and let $E(X,f)$ be its Ellis semigroup. Among other results we show that the following statements are equivalent: (i) $(X,f)$ is equicontinuous, (ii) $(X,f)$ is…

Ellis's "functional approach" allows one to obtain proper compactifications of a topological group $G$ if $G$ can be represented as a subgroup of the homeomorphism group of a space $X$ in the topology of pointwise convergence and $G$-space…

The aim of this article is to study the ideal class monoid $\mathcal{C}\ell(S)$ of a numerical semigroup $S$ introduced by V. Barucci and F. Khouja. We prove new bounds on the cardinality of $\mathcal{C}\ell(S)$. We observe that…

For a continuous semicascade on a metrizable compact set $\Omega $, we consider the weak$^{*}$ convergence of generalized operator ergodic means in ${\rm End}\, \, C^{*} (\Omega)$. We discuss conditions on the dynamical system under which…

Groups with a topology that is in consistent one way or another with the algebraic structure are considered. Classical groups with a topology are topological, paratopological, semitopological, and quasitopological groups. We also study…

We show that every Abelian group satisfying a mild cardinal inequality admits a pseudocompact group topology from which all countable subgroups inherit the maximal totally bounded topology (we say that such a topology satisfies property…
