It is well known that the orbits with certain recurrence and generating ergodic (or invariant) measures are important, such orbits form a full measure set for all invariant measures of the system, its closure is called the measure center of the system. To investigate this set, Zhou introduced the notions of weakly almost periodic point and quasi-weakly almost periodic point in 1990s, and presented some open problems on complexity of discrete dynamical systems in 2004. One of the open problems is as follows: for a quasi-weakly almost periodic point but not weakly almost periodic, is there an invariant measure generated by its orbit such that the support of this measure is equal to its minimal center of attraction (a closed invariant set which attracts its orbit statistically for every point and has no proper subset with this property)? Up to now, the problem remains open. In this paper, we construct two points in the one-sided shift system of two symbols, each of them generates a sub-shift system. One gives a positive answer to the question above, the other answers in the negative. Thus we solve the open problem completely. More important, the two examples show that a proper quasi-weakly almost periodic orbit behaves very differently with weakly almost periodic orbit.展开更多

The aim of this paper is to investigate whether there exists an invariant measure generated by the orbit of x such that the support of this measure coincides with the minimal center of attraction of x? In order to solve the problem, two continuous flows are constructed. In one continuous flow,there exist a proper quasi-weakly almost periodic point and an invariant measure generated by its orbit such that the support of this measure coincides with its minimal center of attraction; and in the other,there is a proper quasi-weakly almost periodic point such that the support of any invariant measure generated by its orbit is properly contained in its minimal center of attraction. So the mentioned problem is sufficiently answered in the paper.展开更多

[On quasi-weakly almost periodic points. Sci. China Math., 56, 597- 606 （2013）] constructed two binary sub-shifts to solve an open problem posed by Zhou and Feng in [Twelve open problems on the exact value of the Hausdorff measure and on topological entropy： A brief survey of recent results.

We show that the first one has zero topological entropy and is transitive but not weakly mixing, while the second one has positive topological entropy and is strongly mixing.展开更多

From the point of view of ergodic theory, all important dynamical behaviors take place on a full measure set. The aim of this paper is to introduce the notion of Banach upper density recurrent points and to show that the closure of the set of all Banach upper density recurrent points equals the measure center or the minimal center of attraction for a C0-flow. Moreover, we give an example to show that the set of quasi-weakly almost periodic points can be included properly in the set of Banach upper density recurrent points, and point out that the set of Banach upper density recurrent points can be included properly in the set of recurrent points.展开更多

Zhou and ELi in 2009. They concern relations between almost periodic, weakly almost periodic, and quasi-weakly almost periodic points of a continuous map f and its topological entropy. The negative answer follows by our recent paper. But for continuous maps of the interval and other more general one-dimensional spaces we give more results; in some cases the answer is positive.展开更多
