    PDF Title: Language stable shifts

    Abstract: language stable shifts form a rich class of shifts that was recently introduced by V. Cyr and B. Kra. This family contains many classical examples of subshifts, of various complexities ranging from systems of strictly positive entropy, such as subshift finite-type (SFT), to systems of low complexity, such as shifts of linear complexity. They are generic among the family of shifts. In this talk, we present some of their properties, in particular those concerning the cellular automata preserving them and their invariant measures

    Title: Nonexpansive subspaces and Nivat's conjecture

    Abstract: In his Ph.D. thesis, Michal Szabados showed that every configuration with low pattern complexity can be decomposed into a finite sum of periodic configurations. In this webinar, I will present some results and open problems related to nonexpansive subspaces, periodic decompositions, and Nivat's conjecture - a natural generalization of the Morse–Hedlund theorem to the two-dimensional case.

    PDF ZOOM Title: Quasi limit theorems for open systems

    Abstract: We investigate deterministic and random open dynamical systems (with holes), and we give limit theorems characterizing the converge to the equilibrium state on the surviving set

    PDF ZOOMTitle: Substitution dynamical systems on infinite alphabets

    Abstract: A substitution is a map from an alphabet A to the set of finite words in A. To any substitution we can naturally associate a symbolic dynamical system that is well studied in the literature when the alphabet is a finite set and connected to several areas such as ergodic theory and number theory among others. In this work, we study ergodic and geometric properties of dynamical systems associated to substitutions in infinite alphabets. This study involves finite and infinite invariant measures, countably infinite matrices and Rauzy Fractals.

    PDF ZOOM Title: Characterization of zero-noise limit measures for cellular automata

    Abstract: For a given cellular automaton F , define $F_\epsilon$ its perturbation by a noise of size $\epsilon$ and denote by $\pi_\epsilon$ one of its invariant measure. The zero-noise limit measures are the accumulation points of $\pi_\epsilon$ as $\epsilon$ goes to 0. Zero-noise limit measure represent invariant measures ``with a physical meaning'' because they appear even with a little noise.

    We will illustrate this notion with some examples and look at which set can be realized as the set of zero-noise limit measures of a CA.

    PDF ZOOM Title: Blur Shifts

    Abstract: Shift spaces are dynamical systems usually considered in symbolic dynamics. Given a nonempty set of symbols $A$ (alphabet), the full shift is defined as the space of all sequences over the alphabet $A$, $$A^\mathbb{N}:=\{(x_i)_{i\in\mathbb{N}}:\ x_i\in A\ \forall i\in\mathbb{N}\}.$$ In $A^\mathbb{N}$, we consider the prodiscrete topology and the shift map $\sigma:A^\mathbb{N}\to A^\mathbb{N}$ given by $$\sigma\big((x_i)_{i\in\mathbb{N}}\big)=(x_{i+1})_{i\in\mathbb{N}}.$$ A shift space is any subspace $\Lambda\subset A^\mathbb{N}$ that is closed in $A^\mathbb{N}$ and such that $\sigma(\Lambda)\subset\Lambda$.

    When $A$ is a finite set, shift spaces are compact, and there is an extensive theory about them. On the other hand, if $A$ is infinite, the loss of compactness (and often even of local compactness) introduces several challenges to their study.

    In this webinar I will present a new type of shift spaces, called blur shifts, that were proposed in a joint work with Tadeu Zavistanovicz de Almeida. These spaces are constructed from classical shift spaces by selecting certain infinite sets of symbols to be represented by a new symbol and then defining a suitable topology. In particular, blur shifts can be used as a compactification scheme for classical shift spaces. Finally, we present some examples of applications of blur shifts.
