Let $ \beta $ be a real number less than -1. In this paper, we prove the uniqueness of the measure with maximal entropy of the negative $\beta$-shift. Endowed with the shift, this symbolic dynamical system is coded under certain conditions,…

The beta-encoder was recently proposed as a quantization scheme for analog-to-digital conversion; in contrast to classical binary quantization, in which each analog sample x in [-1,1] is mapped to the first N bits of its base-2 expansion,…

This paper proposes a novel Nyquist-rate analog-to-digital (A/D) conversion algorithm which achieves exponential accuracy in the bit-rate despite using imperfect components. The proposed algorithm is based on a robust implementation of a…

We study the ergodic properties of compositions of interval exchange transformations and rotations. We show that for any interval exchange transformation T, there is a full measure set of \alpha in [0, 1) so that T composed with R_{\alpha}…

Interval exchange transformations are typically uniquely ergodic maps and therefore have uniformly distributed orbits. Their degree of uniformity can be measured in terms of the star-discrepancy. Few examples of interval exchange…

Given a real number beta>1, a permutation pi of length n is realized by the beta-shift if there is some x in [0,1] such that the relative order of the sequence x,f(x),...,f^{n-1}(x), where f(x) is the factional part of beta*x, is the same…

We study a one-parameter family of interval maps $\{T_\alpha\}_{\alpha\in[1,\beta]}$, with $\beta$ the golden mean, defined on $[-1,1]$ by $T_\alpha(x)=\beta^{1+|t|}x-t\beta\alpha$ where $t\in\{-1,0,1\}$. For each $T_\alpha,\ \alpha>1$, we…

It is a well known result that for $\beta\in(1,\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2})$ and $x\in(0,\frac{1}{\beta-1})$ there exists uncountably many $(\epsilon_{i})_{i=1}^{\infty}\in {0,1}^{\mathbb{N}}$ such that…

The beta transformation is the iterated map $\beta x\,\mod1$; it generates the base-$\beta$ expansion of a real number x. Every iterated piece-wise monotonic map is topologically conjugate to the beta transformation. For all but a countable…

We show that every subshift factor of a ($-\beta$)-shift is intrinsically ergodic, when $\beta\geq \frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2}$ and the ($-\beta$)-expansion of $1$ is not periodic with odd period. Moreover, the unique measure of maximal entropy…

We study the negative beta transformations $T_{-\beta}:=-\beta x +\lfloor\beta x\rfloor+1$ for $x\in(0,1]$ and $\beta>1$. We present a complete characterization of pairs of dstinct non-integers with the same $T_{-\beta}$-invariant measure:…

Permutation entropy quantifies the diversity of possible orderings of the values a random or deterministic system can take, as Shannon entropy quantifies the diversity of values. We show that the metric and permutation entropy…

We consider positional numeration systems with negative real base $-\beta$, where $\beta>1$, and study the extremal representations in these systems, called here the greedy and lazy representations. We give algorithms for determination of…

We study non-standard number systems with negative base $-\beta$. Instead of the Ito-Sadahiro definition, based on the transformation $T_{-\beta}$ of the interval $\big[-\frac{\beta}{\beta+1},\frac{1}{\beta+1}\big)$ into itself, we suggest…

It is known since 40 years old paper by M. Keane that minimality is a generic (i.e. holding with probability one) property of an irreducible interval exchange transformation. If one puts some integral linear restrictions on the parameters…

We consider communication over binary-input memoryless output-symmetric channels using low-density parity-check codes and message-passing decoding. The asymptotic (in the length) performance of such a combination for a fixed number of…

We show that for any ergodic Lebesgue measure preserving transformation $f: [0,1) \rightarrow [0,1)$ and any decreasing sequence $\{b_i\}_{i=1}^{\infty}$ of positive real numbers with divergent sum, the set…

For any fixed alphabet A, the maximum topological entropy of a Z^d subshift with alphabet A is obviously log |A|. We study the class of nearest neighbor Z^d shifts of finite type which have topological entropy very close to this maximum,…

For any $n\geq 3$, let $1<\beta<2$ be the largest positive real number satisfying the equation $$\beta^n=\beta^{n-2}+\beta^{n-3}+\cdots+\beta+1.$$ In this paper we define the shrinking random $\beta$-transformation $K$ and investigate…

A criterion for unique ergodicity for points of a curve in the space of interval exchange transformation is given.
