We show the existence of transcendental entire functions $f: \mathbb {C} \rightarrow \mathbb {C}$ with Hausdorff-dimension $1$ Julia sets, such that every Fatou component of f has infinite inner connectivity. We also show that there exist singleton complementary components of any Fatou component of f, answering a question of Rippon and Stallard [Eremenko points and the structure of the escaping set. Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 372(5) (2019), 3083–3111]. Our proof relies on a quasiconformal-surgery approach developed by Burkart and Lazebnik [Interpolation of power mappings. Rev. Mat. Iberoam. 39(3) (2023), 1181–1200].

We combine methods from microlocal analysis and dimension theory to study resonances with largest real part for an Anosov flow with smooth real valued potential. We show that the resonant states are closely related to special systems of measures supported on the stable manifolds introduced by Climenhaga [SRB and equilibrium measures via dimension theory. A Vision for Dynamics in the 21st Century: The Legacy of Anatole Katok. Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 2024, pp. 94–138]. As a result, we relate the presence of the resonances on the critical axis to mixing properties of the flow with respect to certain equilibrium measures and show that these equilibrium measures can be reconstructed from the spectral theory of the Anosov flow.

A cylindrical cascade on $\mathbb {T}^d\times \mathbb {R}^r$ can be seen as a deterministic random walk on $\mathbb {R}^r$ driven by an observable over the irrational toral translation on the base torus. We prove that, when the observable is the indicator function of a generic (straight) rectangle in $\mathbb {T}^2$, the cascade on $\mathbb {T}^2\times \mathbb {R}$ is ergodic for a $G_{\delta }$-dense set of translation vectors. We also provide examples of ergodic cylindrical cascades in higher dimensions with more restrictive conditions on the side lengths of the rectangles.

In this article, we study the two membranes problem for operators given in terms of a mean value formula on a regular tree. We show existence of solutions under adequate conditions on the boundary data and the involved source terms. We also show that, when the boundary data are strictly separated, the coincidence set is separated from the boundary and thus it contains only a finite number of nodes.

We study the class $\operatorname {Erg}^\perp $ of automorphisms which are disjoint with all ergodic systems. We prove that the identities are the only multipliers of $\operatorname {Erg}^\perp ,$ that is, each automorphism whose every joining with an element of $\operatorname {Erg}^{\perp }$ yields a system which is again an element of $\operatorname {Erg}^{\perp }$, must be an identity. Despite this fact, we show that $\operatorname {Erg}^\perp $ is closed by taking Cartesian products. Finally, we prove that there are non-identity elements in $\operatorname {Erg}^\perp $ whose self-joinings always yield elements in $\operatorname {Erg}^\perp $. This shows that there are non-trivial characteristic classes included in $\operatorname {Erg}^\perp $.

Let $(X,\mathcal {B},\mu ,T)$ be a probability-preserving system with X compact and T a homeomorphism. We show that if every point in $X\times X$ is two-sided recurrent, then $h_{\mu }(T)=0$, resolving a problem of Benjamin Weiss, and that if $h_{\mu }(T)=\infty $, then every full-measure set in X contains mean-asymptotic pairs (that is, the associated process is not tight), resolving a problem of Ornstein and Weiss.

The hydroelastic interaction between water waves and multiple submerged porous elastic plates of arbitrary lengths in deep water is examined using the Galerkin approximation technique. We observe the influence of flexible porous plates of arbitrary lengths by analysing the reflection coefficient, dissipated energy and wave forces acting on the plates. Results are presented for various values of angle of incidence, separation lengths of plates, porosity levels, submergence depth and flexural rigidity. The convergence and accuracy of the method are verified by comparing the results with existing literature. The significant impact of flexural rigidity in the presence of porosity on wave reflection, dissipated energy and wave forces is demonstrated. Moreover, a notable reduction in wave load is observed with an increase in the number of plates.

An extension of Szemerédi’s theorem is proved for sets of positive density in approximate lattices in general locally compact and second countable abelian groups. As a consequence, we establish a recent conjecture of Klick, Strungaru and Tcaciuc. Via a novel version of Furstenberg’s correspondence principle, which should be of independent interest, we show that our Szemerédi theorems can be deduced from a general transverse multiple recurrence theorem, which we establish using a recent work of Austin [Non-conventional ergodic averages for several commuting actions of an amenable group. J. Anal. Math. 130 (2016), 243–274].

Works by O’Grady allow to associate with a two-dimensional Gushel–Mukai (GM) variety, which is a K3 surface, a double Eisenbud–Popescu–Walter (EPW) sextic. We characterize the $K3$ surfaces whose associated double EPW sextic is smooth. As a consequence, we are able to produce symplectic actions on some families of smooth double EPW sextics which are hyper-Kähler manifolds.

We also provide bounds for the automorphism group of GM varieties in dimension 2 and higher.

We show that linearly repetitive weighted Delone sets in groups of polynomial growth have a uniquely ergodic hull. This result applies in particular to the linearly repetitive weighted Delone sets in homogeneous Lie groups constructed in the companion paper [S. Beckus, T. Hartnick and F. Pogorzelski. Symbolic substitution beyond Abelian groups. Preprint, 2021, arXiv:2109.15210] using symbolic substitution methods. More generally, using the quasi-tiling method of Ornstein and Weiss, we establish unique ergodicity of hulls of weighted Delone sets in amenable unimodular locally compact second countable groups under a new repetitivity condition which we call tempered repetitivity. For this purpose, we establish a general sub-additive convergence theorem, which also has applications concerning the existence of Banach densities and uniform approximation of the spectral distribution function of finite hopping range operators on Cayley graphs.

Quasigeodesic behavior of flow lines is a very useful property in the study of Anosov flows. Not every Anosov flow in dimension three is quasigeodesic. In fact, until recently, up to orbit equivalence, the only previously known examples of quasigeodesic Anosov flows were suspension flows. In a recent article, the second author proved that an Anosov flow on a hyperbolic 3-manifold is quasigeodesic if and only if it is non-$\mathbb {R}$-covered, and this result completes the classification of quasigeodesic Anosov flows on hyperbolic 3-manifolds. In this article, we prove that a new class of examples of Anosov flows are quasigeodesic. These are the first examples of quasigeodesic Anosov flows on 3-manifolds that are neither Seifert, nor solvable, nor hyperbolic. In general, it is very hard to show that a given flow is quasigeodesic and, in this article, we provide a new method to prove that an Anosov flow is quasigeodesic.

We introduce a relaxed version of the metric definition of quasiconformality that is natural also for mappings of low regularity, including $W_{\mathrm{loc}}^{1,1}({\mathbb R}^n;{\mathbb R}^n)$-mappings. Then we show on the plane that this relaxed definition can be used to prove Sobolev regularity, and that these ‘finely quasiconformal’ mappings are in fact quasiconformal.

We build a Shannon orbit equivalence between the universal odometer and a variety of rank-one systems. This is done in a unified manner using what we call flexible classes of rank-one transformations. Our main result is that every flexible class contains an element which is Shannon orbit equivalent to the universal odometer. Since a typical example of flexible class is $\{T\}$ when T is an odometer, our work generalizes a recent result by Kerr and Li, stating that every odometer is Shannon orbit equivalent to the universal odometer. When the flexible class is a singleton, the rank-one transformation given by the main result is explicit. This applies to odometers and Chacon’s map. We also prove that strongly mixing systems, systems with a given eigenvalue, or irrational rotations whose angle belongs to any fixed non-empty open subset of the real line form flexible classes. In particular, strong mixing, rationality or irrationality of the eigenvalues are not preserved under Shannon orbit equivalence.

We prove discrete-to-continuum convergence for dynamical optimal transport on $\mathbb{Z}^d$-periodic graphs with cost functional having linear growth at infinity. This result provides an answer to a problem left open by Gladbach, Kopfer, Maas, and Portinale (Calc Var Partial Differential Equations 62(5), 2023), where the convergence behaviour of discrete boundary-value dynamical transport problems is proved under the stronger assumption of superlinear growth. Our result extends the known literature to some important classes of examples, such as scaling limits of $1$-Wasserstein transport problems. Similarly to what happens in the quadratic case, the geometry of the graph plays a crucial role in the structure of the limit cost function, as we discuss in the final part of this work, which includes some visual representations.

We show that for $\mathrm {C}^*$-algebras with the global Glimm property, the rank of every operator can be realized as the rank of a soft operator, that is, an element whose hereditary sub-$\mathrm {C}^*$-algebra has no nonzero, unital quotients. This implies that the radius of comparison of such a $\mathrm {C}^*$-algebra is determined by the soft part of its Cuntz semigroup.

Under a mild additional assumption, we show that every Cuntz class dominates a (unique) largest soft Cuntz class. This defines a retract from the Cuntz semigroup onto its soft part, and it follows that the covering dimensions of these semigroups differ by at most $1$.
