Using a construction similar to an iterated function system, but with functions changing at each step of iteration, we provide a natural example of a continuous one-parameter family of holomorphic functions of infinitely many variables. This family is parametrized by the compact space of positive integer sequences of prescribed growth and hence it can also be viewed as a parametric description of a trivial analytic multifunction.

In many recent articles, medians have been used as a replacement of integral averages when the function fails to be locally integrable. A point $x$ in a metric measure space $(X,d,\mu )$ is called a generalized Lebesgue point of a measurable function $f$ if the medians of $f$ over the balls $B(x,r)$ converge to $f\left(x\right)$ when $r$ converges to $0$. We know that almost every point of a measurable, almost everywhere finite function is a generalized Lebesgue point and the same is true for every point of a continuous function. We show...

We examine the boundary behaviour of the generic power series $f$ with coefficients chosen from a fixed bounded set $\Lambda$ in the sense of Baire category. Notably, we prove that for any open subset $U$ of the unit disk $D$ with a nonreal boundary point on the unit circle, $f\left(U\right)$ is a dense set of $ℂ$. As it is demonstrated, this conclusion does not necessarily hold for arbitrary open sets accumulating to the unit circle. To complement these results, a characterization of coefficient sets having this property is given....

It is shown that the set of learning systems having a singular stationary distribution is generic in the family of all systems satisfying the average contractivity condition.

A subset X of a group G is called left genericif finitely many left translates of X cover G. Our main result is that if G is a definably compact group in an o-minimal structure and a definable X ⊆ G is not right generic then its complement is left generic. Among our additional results are (i) a new condition equivalent to definable compactness, (ii) the existence of a finitely additive invariant measure on definable sets in a definably compact group G in the case where G = *H...

Let $\mu$ be a probability measure on $[0,1]$ which is invariant and ergodic for $T_a\left(x\right)=ax\mathrm{𝚖𝚘𝚍}1$, and $0<\mathrm{𝚍𝚒𝚖}\mu <1$. Let $f$ be a local diffeomorphism on some open set. We show that if $E\subseteq ℝ$ and $\left(f\mu \right){\left|{}_E\sim \mu \right|}_E$, then $f^{\text{'}}\left(x\right)\in \left\{\pm a^r:r\in \mathbb{Q}\right\}$ at $\mu$-a.e. point $x\in f^{-1}E$. In particular, if $g$ is a piecewise-analytic map preserving $\mu$ then there is an open $g$-invariant set $U$ containing supp $\mu$ such that $g\left|{}_U\right.$ is piecewise-linear with slopes which are rational powers of $a$. In a similar vein, for $\mu$ as above, if $b$ is another integer and $a,b$ are not powers of a common integer, and if $\nu$ is a $T_b$-invariant...

We show that the theory of graph directed Markov systems can be used to study exceptional minimal sets of some foliated manifolds. A C¹ smooth embedding of a contracting or parabolic Markov system into the holonomy pseudogroup of a codimension one foliation allows us to describe in detail the h-dimensional Hausdorff and packing measures of the intersection of a complete transversal with exceptional minimal sets.

The main goal is to use Gibbs measures in a markovian matrices context and in a more general context, to compute the Hausdorff dimension of subsets of [0, 1[ and [0, 1[². We introduce a parameter t which could be interpreted within thermodynamic framework as the variable conjugate to energy. In some particular cases we recover the Shannon-McMillan-Breiman and Eggleston theorems. Our proofs are deeply rooted in the properties of non-negative irreducible matrices and large deviations techniques as...

We study Markov shifts over countable (finite or countably infinite) alphabets, i.e. shifts generated by incidence matrices. In particular, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a Gibbs state for a certain class of infinite Markov shifts. We further establish a characterization of the existence, uniqueness and ergodicity of invariant Gibbs states for this class of shifts. Our results generalize the well-known results for finitely irreducible Markov shifts.

In this paper we summarize some of the main results of a forthcoming book on this topic, where we examine in detail the theory of curves of maximal slope in a general metric setting, following some ideas introduced in [11, 5], and study in detail the case of the Wasserstein space of probability measures. In the first part we derive new general conditions ensuring convergence of the implicit time discretization scheme to a curve of maximal slope, the uniqueness, and the error estimates. In the second...
