Mary Rees has constructed a minimal homeomorphism of the 2-torus with positive topological entropy. This homeomorphism f is obtained by enriching the dynamics of an irrational rotation R. We improve Rees construction, allowing to start with any homeomorphism R instead of an irrational rotation and to control precisely the measurable dynamics of f. This yields in particular the following result: Any compact manifold of dimension d>1 which carries a minimal uniquely ergodic homeomorphism also carries a minimal uniquely ergodic homeomorphism with positive topological entropy. More generally, given some homeomorphism R of a (compact) manifold and some homeomorphism h of a Cantor set, we construct a homeomorphism f which looks like R from the topological viewpoint and looks like R*h from the measurable viewpoint. This construction can be seen as a partial answer to the following realisability question: which measurable dynamical systems are represented by homeomorphisms on manifolds ?
We show that the horocycle flows of open tight hyperbolic surfaces do not admit minimal sets.
We develop a technique, pseudo-suspension, that applies to invariant sets of homeomorphisms of a class of annulus homeomorphisms we describe, Handel-Anosov-Katok (HAK) homeomorphisms, that generalize the homeomorphism first described by Handel. Given a HAK homeomorphism and a homeomorphism of the Cantor set, the pseudo-suspension yields a homeomorphism of a new space that admits a homeomorphism that combines features of both of the original homeomorphisms. This allows us to answer a well known open question by providing examples of hereditarily indecomposable continua that admit homeomorphisms of intermediate complexity. Additionally, we show that such examples occur as minimal sets of volume preserving smooth diffeomorphisms of 4-dimensional manifolds. We also use our techniques to exhibit the first examples of minimal, uniformly rigid and weakly mixing homeomorphisms in dimension $1$, and these can also be realized as invariant sets of smooth diffeomorphisms of a 4-manifold. Until now the only known examples of spaces that admit minimal, uniformly rigid and weakly mixing homeomorphisms were modifications of those given by Glasner and Maon in dimension at least $2$.
In this paper we compute the dimension of a class of dynamically defined non-conformal sets. Let $Xsubseteqmathbb{T}^2$ denote a Bedford-McMullen set and $T:Xto X$ the natural expanding toral endomorphism which leaves $X$ invariant. For an open set $Usubset X$ we let X_U={xin X : T^k(x) otin U text{for all}k}. We investigate the box and Hausdorff dimensions of $X_U$ for both a fixed Markov hole and also when $U$ is a shrinking metric ball. We show that the box dimension is controlled by the escape rate of the measure of maximal entropy through $U$, while the Hausdorff dimension depends on the escape rate of the measure of maximal dimension.
We show that every (invertible, or noninvertible) minimal Cantor system embeds in $mathbb{R}$ with vanishing derivative everywhere. We also study relations between local shrinking and periodic points.
