Symbolic discrepancy and self-similar dynamics

Boris Adamczewski (2004)

Annales de l'Institut Fourier

We consider subshifts arising from primitive substitutions, which are known to be uniquely ergodic dynamical systems. In order to precise this point, we introduce a symbolic notion of discrepancy. We show how the distribution of such a subshift is in part ruled by the spectrum of the incidence matrices associated with the underlying substitution. We also give some applications of these results in connection with the spectral study of substitutive dynamical systems.

Symbolic extensions in intermediate smoothness on surfaces

David Burguet (2012)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

We prove that 𝒞 r maps with r > 1 on a compact surface have symbolic extensions, i.e., topological extensions which are subshifts over a finite alphabet. More precisely we give a sharp upper bound on the so-called symbolic extension entropy, which is the infimum of the topological entropies of all the symbolic extensions. This answers positively a conjecture of S. Newhouse and T. Downarowicz in dimension two and improves a previous result of the author [11].

Système dynamique à spectre discret et pavage périodique associé à une substitution

Anne Siegel (2004)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

On donne une condition combinatoire effective suffisante pour que le sytème dynamique associé à une substitution de type Pisot ait un spectre purement discret. Dans le cas unimodulaire, cette condition est nécessaire dès que la substitution n'a qu'un cobord trivial ; elle est vérifiée si et seulement si le fractal de Rauzy associé à la substitution engendre un pavage auto-similaire et périodique. On en déduit des conditions de connexité des fractals de Rauzy.
