Minimal Dynamical System

Abstract We investigate to what extent a minimal topological dynamical system is uniquely determined by a set of return times to some open set. We show that in many situations, this is indeed the case as long as the closure of this open set has no non-trivial translational symmetries. For instance, we show that under this assumption, two Kronecker systems with the same set of return times must be isomorphic. More generally, we show that if a minimal dynamical system has a set of return times that coincides with a set of return times to some open set in a Kronecker system with translationarily asymmetric closure, then that Kronecker system must be a factor. We also study similar problems involving nilsystems and polynomial return times. We state a number of questions on whether these results extend to other homogeneous spaces and transitive group actions, some of which are already interesting for finite groups.

Error Terms

From a physical/dynamical system perspective, the potential well represents the proportional mass of points that escape the neighbourhood of a given point. In the last 20 years, several works have shown the importance of this quantity to obtain precise approximations for several recurrence time distributions in mixing stochastic processes and dynamical systems. Besides providing a review of the different scaling factors used in the literature in recurrence times, the present work contributes two new results: (1) For ϕ-mixing and ψ-mixing processes, we give a new exponential approximation for hitting and return times using the potential well as the scaling parameter. The error terms are explicit and sharp. (2) We analyse the uniform positivity of the potential well. Our results apply to processes on countable alphabets and do not assume a complete grammar.

Abstract Let $(X,T)$ be a topological dynamical system. Given a continuous vector-valued function $F \in C(X, \mathbb {R}^{d})$ called a potential, we define its rotation set $R(F)$ as the set of integrals of F with respect to all T-invariant probability measures, which is a convex body of $\mathbb {R}^{d}$ . In this paper we study the geometry of rotation sets. We prove that if T is a non-uniquely ergodic topological dynamical system with a dense set of periodic measures, then the map $R(\cdot )$ is open with respect to the uniform topologies. As a consequence, we obtain that the rotation set of a generic potential is strictly convex and has $C^{1}$ boundary. Furthermore, we prove that the map $R(\cdot )$ is surjective, extending a result of Kucherenko and Wolf.

AbstractIn this paper, it is shown that for a minimal system (X, G), if H is a normal subgroup of G with finite index n, then X can be decomposed into n components of closed sets such that each component is minimal under H-action. Meanwhile, we prove that for a residual set of points in a minimal system with finitely many commuting homeomorphisms, the set of return times to any non-empty open set contains arbitrarily long geometric progressions in multidimension, extending a previous result by Glasscock, Koutsogiannis and Richter.

Special Case

AbstractWe prove a characteristic free version of Weyl’s theorem on polarization. Our result is an exact analogue ofWeyl’s theorem, the difference being that our statement is about separating invariants rather than generating invariants. For the special case of finite group actions we introduce the concept of cheap polarization, and show that it is enough to take cheap polarizations of invariants of just one copy of a representation to obtain separating vector invariants for any number of copies. This leads to upper bounds on the number and degrees of separating vector invariants of finite groups.

Nonlinear Irreducible Character

The main result of this paper is the following:Theorem A. Let H and N be finite groups with coprime orders andsuppose that H acts nontrivially on N via automorphisms. Assume that Hfixes every nonlinear irreducible character of N. Then the derived subgroup ofN is nilpotent and so N is solvable of nilpotent length≦ 2.Why might one be interested in a situation like this? There has been considerable interest in the question of what one can deduce about a group Gfrom a knowledge of the setcd(G) = ﹛x(l)lx ∈ Irr(G) ﹜of irreducible character degrees of G.Recently, attention has been focused on the prime divisors of the elements of cd(G). For instance, in [9], O. Manz and R. Staszewski consider π-separable groups (for some set π of primes) with the property that every element of cd(G) is either a 77-number or a π'-number.

This article is devoted to studying which conditions imply that a topological dynamical system is mean sensitive and which do not. Among other things, we show that every uniquely ergodic, mixing system with positive entropy is mean sensitive. On the other hand, we provide an example of a transitive system which is cofinitely sensitive or Devaney chaotic with positive entropy but fails to be mean sensitive. As applications of our theory and examples, we negatively answer an open question regarding equicontinuity/sensitivity dichotomies raised by Tu, we introduce and present results of locally mean equicontinuous systems and we show that mean sensitivity of the induced hyperspace does not imply that of the phase space.

Finite groups in which a given property of two-generator subgroups is a transitive relation are investigated. We obtain a description of such groups and prove in particular that every finite soluble-transitive group is soluble. A classification of finite nilpotent-transitive groups is also obtained.
