Namely, we show that a transitive system $(X,T)$ is disjoint from all minimal systems if and only if $(X,T)$ is weakly mixing and there is some countable dense subset $D$ of $X$ such that for any minimal system $(Y,S)$, any point $y\\in Y$ and any open neighbourhood $V$ of $y$, and for any nonempty open subset $U\\subset X$, there is $x\\in D\\cap U$ satisfying that $\\{n\\in { \\mathbb Z}_+: T^n x\\in U, S^n y\\in V\\}$ is syndetic. As applications we show that if a transitive system $(X,T)$ is disjoint from all minimal systems, then so are $(X^n,T^{(n)})$ and $(X, T^n)$ for any $n\\in {\\mathbb N}$. It turns out that a transitive system $(X,T)$ is disjoint from all minimal systems if and only if the hyperspace system $(K(X),T_K)$ is disjoint from all minimal systems.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-07-25T15:47:47.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37B05", "54H20" ], "keywords": [ "transitive system", "minimal system", "topological disjointness", "furstenberg", "nonempty open subset" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 15, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
