Abstract

We prove that the upper box dimension of an inhomogeneous attractor of a $C^1$ iterated function system in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is bounded above by the maximum of the singularity dimension of the system and the upper box dimension of the condensation set. This extends the upper bound of Burrell and Fraser (2020) for inhomogeneous self-affine sets to the $C^1$ setting. The covering argument of Burrell and Fraser does not apply directly to nonlinear compositions. We overcome this difficulty by combining their approach with an extension of the recursive covering estimate of Feng and Simon (2023). We also obtain the corresponding bound for orbital sets driven by arbitrary compact subshifts.

Multiple Polynomial Recurrence in Weyl Systems

In this work we give a full characterization of sets of multiple polynomial recurrence in Weyl systems, which are ergodic unipotent affine transformations on products of tori and finite abelian groups. In particular, we show that measurable and topological recurrence in Weyl systems coincide. Our analysis also yields a structure theorem for polynomial multicorrelation sequences in Weyl systems. These results stem from an in-depth study of the Weyl complexity of a set of polynomials and the introduction of a new concept: the \textit{Weyl polynomials} generated by a set of polynomials.

Multipliers and Disjointness from Mixing

In 2005, Parreau proved that if a measure preserving system is not strongly mixing then it contains a non-trivial factor that is disjoint from every strongly mixing system. Taking this construction as the starting point, we develop the complementary notions of $\mathcal U$-generated and $\mathcal U$-mixing systems, for a set $\mathcal U$ of ultrafilters, and use them to recover several classical results in ergodic theory as special cases of a unified framework. We prove that a system is $\mathcal U$-mixing if and only if it is disjoint from all $\mathcal U$-generated systems. In fact, we show that if $\mathcal Y$ is a $\mathcal U$-generated system and $\mathcal Z$ is disjoint from every $\mathcal U$-mixing system, then any joining of $\mathcal Y$ and $\mathcal Z$ remains disjoint from all $\mathcal U$-mixing systems. We also show that every partially rigid system is a finite extension of some $\mathcal{U}$-generated system.

Rank-two recurrence results for polynomials and questions of dynamical Mordell--Lang type

Let $f,g\in\mathbb{C}[z]\setminus\mathbb{C}$ and $c\in\mathbb{C}[z]$. Suppose that $\mathrm{deg}(c)=1$ if $\mathrm{deg}(f)=\mathrm{deg}(g)=1$. Using the theory of Presburger arithmetic, we prove that the rank-two recurrence set \[ S_{f,g,c}^2:=\left\lbrace(m,n)\in\mathbb{Z}_{\geq0}^2\colon \existsλ\in\mathbb{C}, f^{\circ m}(λ)=g^{\circ n}(λ)=c(λ)\right\rbrace \] is semi-linear. This is a generalization of a theorem of Yang and Zhong for the case $m=n$. We also obtain partial results on recurrence sets for rational maps. These results are related to higher-dimensional questions of dynamical Mordell--Lang type of rank $\leq2$.
