In this paper, we show a similar rational–transcendental dichotomy for sequences defined by irreducible Pisot morphisms on binary alphabets. Subject to the Pisot conjecture (an irreducible Pisot morphism has pure discrete spectrum), we generalise the latter result to arbitrary finite alphabets.

In this paper, we study a deformative version of this conjecture: we consider integrable deformations of a non-flat Liouville metric in a conformal class and show that for a fairly large class of such deformations, the deformed metric is again Liouville. The principal idea of the argument is that the preservation of rational invariant tori in the foliation of the phase space forces a linear combination on the Fourier coefficients of the deformation to vanish. Showing that the resulting linear system is non-degenerate will then yield the claim. Since our method of proof immediately carries over to higher dimensional tori, we obtain analogous statements in this more general case. To put our results in perspective, we review existing results about integrable metrics on the torus."}],"quality_controlled":"1","title":"Deformational rigidity of integrable metrics on the torus","publisher":"Cambridge University Press","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1469-4417"],"issn":["0143-3857"]},"date_updated":"2026-07-29T13:18:16Z","status":"public","doi":"10.1017/etds.2024.48","project":[{"name":"Random matrices beyond Wigner-Dyson-Mehta","grant_number":"101020331","_id":"62796744-2b32-11ec-9570-940b20777f1d","call_identifier":"H2020"},{"name":"Spectral rigidity and integrability for billiards and geodesic flows","grant_number":"885707","_id":"9B8B92DE-BA93-11EA-9121-9846C619BF3A","call_identifier":"H2020"}],"oa":1,"tmp":{"image":"/images/cc_by.png","short":"CC BY (4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)"},"article_type":"original","_id":"18112","external_id":{"isi":["001308182000001"]},"date_published":"2025-02-01T00:00:00Z","date_created":"2024-09-22T22:01:43Z","file_date_updated":"2025-01-13T08:51:40Z","year":"2025","day":"01","article_processing_charge":"Yes (via OA deal)","publication":"Ergodic Theory and Dynamical Systems","type":"journal_article","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},{"intvolume":"        32","article_processing_charge":"No","day":"01","type":"journal_article","publication_status":"published","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","author":[{"full_name":"Kaloshin, Vadim","last_name":"Kaloshin","orcid":"0000-0002-6051-2628","id":"FE553552-CDE8-11E9-B324-C0EBE5697425","first_name":"Vadim"},{"last_name":"KOZLOVSKI","full_name":"KOZLOVSKI, O.

It is possible that the dimension drops under all such mappings, but the amount by which it typically drops is controlled by the ‘thickness exponent’ of the set, which was defined by Hunt and Kaloshin (Nonlinearity12 (1999), 1263–1275). More precisely, let $X$ be a compact subset of a Banach space $B$ with thickness exponent $\\tau$ and Hausdorff dimension $d$. Let $M$ be any subspace of the (locally) Lipschitz functions from $B$ to $\\mathbb{R}^{m}$ that contains the space of bounded linear functions. We prove that for almost every (in the sense of prevalence) function $f \\in M$, the Hausdorff dimension of $f(X)$ is at least $\\min\\{ m, d / (1 + \\tau) \\}$. We also prove an analogous result for a certain part of the dimension spectra of Borel probability measures supported on $X$. The factor $1 / (1 + \\tau)$ can be improved to $1 / (1 + \\tau / 2)$ if $B$ is a Hilbert space. Since dimension cannot increase under a (locally) Lipschitz function, these theorems become dimension preservation results when $\\tau = 0$. We conjecture that many of the attractors associated with the evolution equations of mathematical physics have thickness exponent zero. We also discuss the sharpness of our results in the case $\\tau > 0$.","lang":"eng"}],"quality_controlled":"1","title":"The effect of projections on fractal sets and measures in Banach spaces","publisher":"Cambridge University Press","issue":"3","citation":{"short":"W.
