We extend the study of the square-free flow, recently introduced by Sarnak, to the more general context of B-free integers, that is to say integers with no factor in a given family B of pairwise relatively prime integers, the sum of whose reciprocals is finite. Relying on dynamical arguments, we prove in particular that the distribution of patterns in the characteristic function of the B-free integers follows a shift-invariant probability measure, and gives rise to a measurable dynamical system isomorphic to a specific minimal rotation on a compact group. As a by-product, we get the abundance of twin B-free integers. Moreover, we show that the distribution of patterns in small intervals also conforms to the same measure. When elements of B are squares, we introduce a generalization of the Mobius function, and discuss a conjecture of Chowla in this broader context.

We study approximation schemes for shift spaces over a finite alphabet using (pseudo)metrics connected to Ornsteins $bar{d}$ metric. This leads to a class of shift spaces we call $bar{d}$-approachable. A shift space $bar{d}$-approachable when its canonical sequence of Markov approximations converges to it also in the $bar{d}$ sense. We give a topological characterisation of chain mixing $bar{d}$-approachable shift spaces. As an application we provide a new criterion for entropy density of ergodic measures. Entropy-density of a shift space means that every invariant measure $mu$ of such a shift space is the weak$^*$ limit of a sequence $mu_n$ of ergodic measures with the corresponding sequence of entropies $h(mu_n)$ converging to $h(mu)$. We prove ergodic measures are entropy-dense for every shift space that can be approximated in the $bar{d}$ pseudometric by a sequence of transitive sofic shifts. This criterion can be applied to many examples that were out of the reach of previously known techniques including hereditary $mathscr{B}$-free shifts and some minimal or proximal systems. The class of symbolic dynamical systems covered by our results includes also shift spaces where entropy density was established previously using the (almost) specification property.
In this paper, we introduce a new entropy-like invariant, named Hausdorff metric entropy, for finitely generated semigroups acting on compact metric spaces from a set-valued view and study its properties. We establish the relation between Hausdorff metric entropy and topological entropy of a semigroup defined by Bis. Some examples with positive or zero Hausdorff metric entropy are given. Moreover, some notions of chaos are also well generalized for finitely generated semigroups from a set-valued view.
We prove that on B-free subshifts, with B satisfying the Erdos condition, all cellular automata are determined by monotone sliding block codes. In particular, this implies the validity of the Garden of Eden theorem for such systems.
We extend the notion of randomness (in the version introduced by Schnorr) to computable Probability Spaces and compare it to a dynamical notion of randomness: typicality. Roughly, a point is typical for some dynamic, if it follows the statistical behavior of the system (Birkhoffs pointwise ergodic theorem). We prove that a point is Schnorr random if and only if it is typical for every mixing computable dynamics. To prove the result we develop some tools for the theory of computable probability spaces (for example, morphisms) that are expected to have other applications.
This paper is aimed at a detailed study of the multifractal analysis of the so-called divergence points in the system of $beta$-expansions. More precisely, let $([0,1),T_{beta})$ be the $beta$-dynamical system for a general $beta>1$ and $psi:[0,1]mapstomathbb{R}$ be a continuous function. Denote by $textsf{A}(psi,x)$ all the accumulation points of $Big{frac{1}{n}sum_{j=0}^{n-1}psi(T^jx): nge 1Big}$. The Hausdorff dimensions of the sets $$Big{x:textsf{A}(psi,x)supset[a,b]Big}, Big{x:textsf{A}(psi,x)=[a,b]Big}, Big{x:textsf{A}(psi,x)subset[a,b]Big}$$ i.e., the points for which the Birkhoff averages of $psi$ do not exist but behave in a certain prescribed way, are determined completely for any continuous function $psi$.
