Minimality of B-free systems (in number fields)

Given a set B of natural numbers, we say that an integer n is B-free, if no

number in B divides n. In 2010 Sarnak initiated the study of the dynamics of

sets of B-free numbers. The orbit closure of the characteristic function of B-free

numbers is endowed with the left shift and called B-free subshift. Any B-free

system contains a unique minimal subshift. Moreover, it is minimal precisely if

the characteristic function of B-free integers is a Toeplitz sequence. Equivalently,

there is no "rescalled copy of an infinite pairwise coprime subset" in B. I will

discuss these results and their multidimensional counterparts.

The talk is based on the joint work with Stanisław Kasjan and Joanna Kułaga-

Przymus.
