Discrete Dynamical Systems Embedded in Cantor Sets
While the notion of chaos is well established for dynamical systems on
manifolds, it is not so for dynamical systems over discrete spaces with
variables, as binary neural networks and cellular automata. The main difficulty
is the choice of a suitable topology to study the limit . By
embedding the discrete phase space into a Cantor set we provided a natural
setting to define topological entropy and Lyapunov exponents through the
concept of error-profile. We made explicit calculations both numerical and
analytic for well known discrete dynamical models.Comment: 36 pages, 13 figures: minor text amendments in places, time running

Equidistribution Rates, Closed String Amplitudes, and the Riemann Hypothesis
We study asymptotic relations connecting unipotent averages of
automorphic forms to their integrals over the moduli space
of principally polarized abelian varieties. We obtain reformulations of the
Riemann hypothesis as a class of problems concerning the computation of the
equidistribution convergence rate in those asymptotic relations. We discuss
applications of our results to closed string amplitudes. Remarkably, the
Riemann hypothesis can be rephrased in terms of ultraviolet relations occurring
in perturbative closed string theory.Comment: 15 page
