We show that there is an irrational rotation $Tx=x+\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}$ on the circle $\mathbb{T}$ and a continuous $\unicode[STIX]{x1D711}:\mathbb{T}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ such that for each (continuous) uniquely ergodic flow ${\mathcal{S}}=(S_{t})_{t\in \mathbb{R}}$ acting on a compact metric space $Y$, the automorphism $T_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D711},{\mathcal{S}}}$ acting on $(X\times Y,\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}\otimes \unicode[STIX]{x1D708})$ by the formula $T_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D711},{\mathcal{S}}}(x,y)=(Tx,S_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D711}(x)}(y))$, where $\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}$ stands for the Lebesgue measure on $\mathbb{T}$ and $\unicode[STIX]{x1D708}$ denotes the unique ${\mathcal{S}}$-invariant measure, has the property of asymptotically orthogonal powers. This gives a class of relatively weakly mixing extensions of irrational rotations for which Sarnak’s conjecture on the Möbius disjointness holds for all uniquely ergodic models of $T_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D711},{\mathcal{S}}}$. Moreover, we obtain a class of ‘random’ ergodic sequences $(c_{n})\subset \mathbb{Z}$ such that if $\boldsymbol{\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}}$ denotes the Möbius function, then $$\begin{eqnarray}\lim _{N\rightarrow \infty }\frac{1}{N}\mathop{\sum }_{n\leq N}g(S_{c_{n}}y)\boldsymbol{\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}}(n)=0\end{eqnarray}$$ for all (continuous) uniquely ergodic flows ${\mathcal{S}}$, all $g\in C(Y)$ and $y\in Y$.

By a dynamical system we mean a compact metric space together with a continuous map . This article is devoted to study of invariant scrambled sets. A dynamical system is a periodically adsorbing system if there exists a fixed point and a periodic point such that and are dense in . We show that every topological weakly mixing and periodically adsorbing system contains an invariant and dense Mycielski scrambled set for some , where has no isolated points. A subset is a Myceilski set if it is a countable union of Cantor sets.

AbstractLet 0<α<1 andβ>1. We show that everyx∈[0,1] has an expansion of the formwherehi=hi(x)∈{0,α/β}, andpi=pi(x)∈{0,1}. We study the dynamical system underlying this expansion and give the density of the invariant measure that is equivalent to the Lebesgue measure. We prove that the system is weakly Bernoulli, and we give a version of the natural extension. For special values ofα, we give the relationship of this expansion with the greedyβ-expansion.

In this paper we answer positively to a question of whether it is possible for a circle diffeomorphism with breaks to be smoothly conjugate to a rigid rotation in the case where its breaks are lying on pairwise distinct trajectories. An example constructed is a piecewise linear circle homeomorphism that has four break points lying on distinct trajectories and whose invariant measure is absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure. The irrational rotation number for our example can be chosen to be a Roth number, but not of bounded type.

AbstractSuppose thatBis a G-Banach algebra over= ℝ or ℂXis a finite dimensional compact metric space, ζ :P → Xis a standard principalG-bundle, andAζ= Γ(X,P×GB) is the associated algebra of sections. We produce a spectral sequence which converges to π*(GLoAζ) withA related spectral sequence converging toK*+1(Aζ) (the real or complex topologicalK-theory) allows us to conclude that ifBis Bott-stable, (i.e., if π*(GLoB) →K*+1(B) is an isomorphism for all * > 0) then so isAζ.

Let (Y, g) be a compact connected n-dimensional Riemannian manifold and let () be its universal cover endowed with the pulled-back metric. If y ∈ , we definewhere B(y, R) denotes the ball of radius R around y in . It is a well known fact that this limit exists and does not depend on y ([Man]). The invariant h(g) is called the volume entropy of the metric g but, for the sake of simplicity, we shall use the term entropy. The idea of recognizing special metrics in terms of this invariant looks at first glance very optimistic. First the entropy, which behaves like the inverse of a distance, is sensitive to changes of scale which makes it a bad invariant: however, this is a minor drawback that can be circumvented by looking at the behaviour of the entropy functional on the space of metrics with fixed volume (equal to one for example). Nevertheless, it seems very unlikely that two numbers, the entropy and the volume, might characterize any metric. The very first person to consider such a possibility was Katok ([Kat1]). In this article the entropy is thought of as a dynamical invariant which actually is suggested by its name. More precisely, let us define this dynamical invariant, which is called the topological entropy: let (M, d) be a compact metric space and ψt, a flow on it, we define.

A continuum will be a connected, compact, metric space. By a mapping we mean a continuous function. By a partially ordered space X we mean a continuum X together with a partial order which is closed when regarded as a subset of X × X. We let 2x (resp. C(X)) denote the hyperspace of closed subsets (resp. subcontinua) of X with the Vietoris topology which coincides with the topology induced by the Hausdorff metric. The hyperspaces 2X and C(X) are arcwise connected metric continua (see [3, Theorem 2.7]). If A ⊂ X we let C(A) denote the subspace of subcontinua of X which lie in A.If X is a partially ordered space we define two functions L, M : X → 2X by setting for each x ∊ X

Let$f$and$g$be two class$P$-homeomorphisms of the circle$S^{1}$with break point singularities, which are differentiable maps except at some singular points where the derivative has a jump. Assume that$f$and$g$have irrational rotation numbers and the derivatives$\text{Df}$and$\text{Dg}$are absolutely continuous on every continuity interval of$\text{Df}$and$\text{Dg}$, respectively. We prove that if the product of the$f$-jumps along all break points of$f$is distinct from that of$g$then the homeomorphism$h$conjugating$f$and$g$is a singular function, i.e. it is continuous on$S^{1}$, but$\text{Dh}(x)=0$ almost everywhere with respect to the Lebesgue measure. This result generalizes previous results for one and two break points obtained by Dzhalilov, Akin and Temir, and Akhadkulov, Dzhalilov and Mayer. As a consequence, we get in particular Dzhalilov–Mayer–Safarov’s theorem: if the product of the$f$-jumps along all break points of$f$is distinct from$1$, then the invariant measure$\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}_{f}$is singular with respect to the Lebesgue measure.

We prove that when $f$ is a continuous self-map acting on a compact metric space $(X,d)$ that satisfies the shadowing property, then the set of irregular points (i.e., points with divergent Birkhoff averages) has full entropy. Using this fact, we prove that, in the class of $C^{0}$-generic maps on manifolds, we can only observe (in the sense of Lebesgue measure) points with convergent Birkhoff averages. In particular, the time average of atomic measures along orbits of such points converges to some Sinai–Ruelle–Bowen-like measure in the weak$^{\ast }$ topology. Moreover, such points carry zero entropy. In contrast, irregular points are non-observable but carry infinite entropy.

AbstractLet f:X→X be continuous and onto, where X is a compact metric space. Let $Y:=\invlim {X,f}$ be the inverse limit and F:Y →Y the induced homeomorphism. Suppose that μ is an f-invariant measure, and let m be the measure induced on Y by (μ,μ,…). We show that B is a basin of μ if and only if π−11(B) is a basin of m. From this it follows that if μ is an SRB measure for f on X, then the induced measure m on Y is an inverse-limit SRB measure for F. Conversely, if m is an inverse-limit SRB measure for F on Y, then the induced measure μ on X is an SRB measure for f.

We introduce a set, $Q({\bf T})$, of Borel probability measures on the circle such that each $\mu\in Q({\bf T})$ obeys the conclusion of the Kerckhoff–Masur–Smillie theorem [3]: if $q$ is a meromorphic quadratic differential with at worst simple poles on a closed Riemann surface, then for each $\mu\in Q({\bf T})$ and $\mu$-a.e. $\zeta\in{\bf T}$, $\zeta q$ has uniquely ergodic vertical foliation. As an example, the normalized Cantor–Lebesgue measure belongs to $Q({\bf T})$. The analysis also yields an analogue, for the Teichmüller horocycle flow, of a theorem of Dani: every locally finite ergodic invariant measure for the Teichmüller horocycle flow is finite.
