AbstractAn ergodic flow is said to have the weak Pinsker property if it admits a decreasing sequence of factors whose entropies tend to zero and each of which has a Bernoulli complement. We show that this property is preserved under taking factors and d-limits. In addition, we show that a flow has the weak Pinsker property whenever one ergodic transformation in the flow has this property.

Abstract It is proved that for an arbitrary non-atomic finite measure space with a measure-preserving ergodic transformation there exists an integrable function f such that the ergodic Hilbert transform of any function equal in absolute values to f is non-integrable.

AbstractWe study a wide class of metrics in a Lebesgue space, namely the class of so-called admissible metrics. We consider the cone of admissible metrics, introduce a special norm in it, prove compactness criteria, define the ɛ-entropy of a measure space with an admissible metric, etc. These notions and related results are applied to the theory of transformations with invariant measure; namely, we study the asymptotic properties of orbits in the cone of admissible metrics with respect to a given transformation or a group of transformations. The main result of this paper is a new discreteness criterion for the spectrum of an ergodic transformation: we prove that the spectrum is discrete if and only if the ɛ-entropy of the averages of some (and hence any) admissible metric over its trajectory is uniformly bounded.

AbstractLet Lp = Lp(X, μ), 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞, be the usual Banach Spaces of real valued functions on a complete non-atomic probability space. Let (T1, . . . ,TK) be L2-contractions. Let 0 < ε < δ ≤ 1. Call a function f a δ-spanning function if ‖f‖2 = 1 and if ‖Tkf - Qk-1Tkf‖2 ≥ δ for each k = 1, . . . ,K, where Q0 = 0 and Qk is the orthogonal projection on the subspace spanned by (T1f , . . . ,Tkf). Call a function h a (δ, ε) -sweeping function if ‖h‖∞ ≤ 1, ‖h‖1 < ε, and if max1≤k≤K|Tkh| > δ-ε on a set of measure greater than 1 - ε. The following is the main technical result, which is obtained by elementary estimates. There is an integer K = K(δ, ε) ≥ 1 such that if f is a δ-spanning function, and if the joint distribution of (f , T1f , . . . ,TKf) is normal, then h = ((fΛM)Ꮩ(-M)/M is a (δ, ε)-sweeping function, for some M > 0. Furthermore, if Tks are the averages of operators induced by the iterates of ameasure preserving ergodic transformation, then a similar result is true without requiring that the joint distribution is normal. This gives the following theorem on a sequence (Ti) of these averages.Assume that for each K ≤ 1 there is a subsequence (Ti1 , . . . ,Tik) of length K, and a δ-spanning function fK for this subsequence. Then for each ε > 0 there is a function h, 0 ≥ h ≥ 1, ‖h‖1 < ε, such that lim supi Tih ≤ δ a.e.. Another application of the main result gives a refinement of a part of Bourgain’s “Entropy Theorem”, resulting in a different, self contained proof of that theorem.

AbstractGeneralizing from the centralizer of a measure-preserving dynamical system (X, ℬ, μ,T), one defines the Kakutani centralizerKC(T) of all ‘even Kakutani factor maps’ ϕ fromTto itself. Such a ϕ is a composition φ2ϕ1of an even Kakutani orbit equivalence ϕ1and a factor map ϕ2. We construct here an ergodicTacting on a nonatomic Lebesgue space (X,ℬ,μ) with the property that any ϕ ∈ KC(T) is invertible and of the formAll invertible maps of this form are automatically in KC(T) and hence for thisTthe Kakutani centralizer is as small as possible.

In this work, we introduce Rock-Paper-Scissors lattice model on Cayley tree of second order generated by Rock-Paper-Scissors game. In this strategic 2-player game, the rule is simple: rock beats scissors, scissors beat paper, and paper beats rock. A payoff matrix  of this game is a skew-symmetric. It is known that quadratic stochastic operator generated by this matrix is non-ergodic transformation. The Hamiltonian of Rock-Paper-Scissors Lattice Model is defined by this skew-symmetric payoff matrix . In this paper, we discuss a connection between three fields of research: evolutionary games, quadratic stochastic operators, and lattice models of statistical physics. We prove that a phase diagram of the Rock-Paper-Scissors model consists of translation-invariant and periodic Gibbs measure with period 3.

Let T be an eventually expansive transformation on the unit interval satisfying the Markov condition. The T is an ergodic transformation on (X, ß, μ) where X = [0, 1), ß is the Borel σ-algebra on the unit interval and μ is the T invariant absolutely continuous measure. Let G be a finite subgroup of the circle group or the whole circle group and φ: X → G be a measurable function with finite discontinuity points. We investigate ergodicity of skew product transformations Tφ on X × G by showing the solvability of the coboundary equation φ(x) g (Tx) = λg (x), |λ| = 1. Its relation with the uniform distribution mod M is also shown.
