Chain Recurrence Rates and Topological Entropy of Free Semigroup Actions

Chain Recurrence Rates and Topological Entropy

We investigate the properties of chain recurrent, chain transitive, and chain mixing maps (generalizations of the wellknown notions of non-wandering, topologically transitive, and topologically mixing maps). We describe the structure of chain transitive maps. These notions of recurrence are defined using ε-chains, and the minimal lengths of these ε-chains give a way to measure recurrence time (...

On the topological centers of module actions

In this paper, we  study the Arens regularity properties of module actions. We investigate some properties of topological centers of module actions ${Z}^ell_{B^{**}}(A^{**})$ and  ${Z}^ell_{A^{**}}(B^{**})$ with some conclusions in group algebras.

Affine Actions of a Free Semigroup on the Real Line

We consider actions of the free semigroup with two generators on the real line, where the generators act as affine maps, one contracting and one expanding, with distinct fixed points. Then every orbit is dense in a half-line, which leads to the question whether it is, in some sense, uniformly distributed. We present answers to this question for various interpretations of the phrase “uniformly d...

Topological Centers of Certain Banach Module Actions

Topological Centers and Factorization of Certain Module Actions

Let $A$ be a Banach algebra and $X$ be a Banach $A$-bimodule with the left and right module actions $pi_ell: Atimes Xrightarrow X$ and $pi_r: Xtimes Arightarrow X$, respectively. In this paper, we  study  the topological centers of the left module action $pi_{ell_n}: Atimes X^{(n)}rightarrow X^{(n)}$ and the right module action $pi_{r_n}:X^{(n)}times Arightarrow X^{(n)}$,  which inherit from th...
