We study the run length function for intermittency maps. In particular, we show that the longest consecutive zero digits (resp. one digits) having a time window of polynomial (resp. logarithmic) length. Our proof is relatively elementary in the sense that it only relies on the classical Borel-Cantelli lemma and the polynomial decay of intermittency maps. Our results are compensational to the ErdH{o}s-R{e}nyi law obtained by Denker and Nicol in cite{dennic13}.
We show that the definition of parabolic-like map can be slightly modified, by asking $partial Delta$ to be a quasiarc out of the parabolic fixed point, instead of the dividing arcs to be $C^1$ on $[-1,0]$ and $[0,1]$.
We consider the minimal average action (Mathers $beta$ function) for area preserving twist maps of the annulus. The regularity properties of this function share interesting relations with the dynamics of the system. We prove that the $beta$-function associated to a standard-like twist map admits a unique $C^1$-holomorphic complex extension, which coincides with this function on the set of real diophantine frequencies.
Recently a new class of critical points, termed as {sl perpetual points}, where acceleration becomes zero but the velocity remains non-zero, is observed in nonlinear dynamical systems. In this work we show whether a transformation also maps the perpetual points to another system or not. We establish mathematically that a linearly transformed system is topologicaly conjugate, and hence does map the perpetual points. However, for a nonlinear transformation, various other possibilities are also discussed. It is noticed that under a linear diffeomorphic transformation, perpetual points are mapped, and accordingly, eigenvalues are preserved.
In this note, it is shown that several results concerning mean equicontinuity proved before for minimal systems are actually held for general topological dynamical systems. Particularly, it turns out that a dynamical system is mean equicontinuous if and only if it is equicontinuous in the mean if and only if it is Banach (or Weyl) mean equicontinuous if and only if its regionally proximal relation is equal to the Banach proximal relation. Meanwhile, a relation is introduced such that the smallest closed invariant equivalence relation containing this relation induces the maximal mean equicontinuous factor for any system.
In this short note, for countably infinite amenable group actions, we provide topological proofs for the following results: Bowen topological entropy (dimensional entropy) of the whole space equals the usual topological entropy along tempered F{o}lner sequences; the Hausdorff dimension of an amenable subshift (for certain metric associated to some F{o}lner sequence) equals its topological entropy. This answers questions by Zheng and Chen (Israel Journal of Mathematics 212 (2016), 895-911) and Simpson (Theory Comput. Syst. 56 (2015), 527-543).
