Weak$^*$ convergence of measures vs. convergence of supports
Let $X$ be a compact metric space and let $\mathcal M(X)$ denote the set of probability measures on $X$. For $\mu\in\mathcal M(X)$ we write $\text{supp} \mu$ for the support of $\mu$. It is easy to ...

Topological entropy and periodic sequences of a subshift
Let $\Sigma$ be a two-sided subshift on a finite alphabet $A$. Let $\Sigma_n$ denote all words $x_{-n}\dots x_n\in A^{2n+1}$ such that $(x_k)_{-\infty}^\infty \in \Sigma$ for some $x_k, |k|>n$.

Automorphism groups of subshifts and factor maps
Let $\pi : X \to Y$ be a factor map between subshifts over finite alphabets.
Let $\operatorname{Aut}(X)$ and $\operatorname{Aut}(Y)$ stand for automorphism groups of these shifts.
We say that $\varphi ...

$C^{1+\epsilon}$ conjugacy of expanding map on circle
A continuously differentiable map $f:S^{1}\rightarrow S^{1}$ is called expanding if $|f^{'}(x)|>1$ for all $x\in S^{1}$.
We can define the degree of f, def(f) to be number of preimage $f^{-1}(x)$, ...

Completeness of the space of measures under $d$-bar metric
Does anybody know the reference to a proof of the following fact (which is not hard to prove, but seems to be well-known, see here): The space of shift-invariant measures under Ornstein's d-bar metric ...

Continuity of Kneading invariants of generalised $\beta$-trasformations
For $\beta \in (1,2]$ and $\alpha \in [0,2-\beta]$ consider the generalised $\beta$-transformation $T_{\alpha,\beta}:[0,1] \to [0,1]$ to be $$T_{\alpha, \beta}(x) = \beta x + \alpha \mod 1.$$ It is a ...

Growing gliders under rule 110
I found a glider in the evolution space of rule 110 that grows constantly in size. Normal gliders live in the so-called ether, e.g. the so-called E-glider:
Other – often complex – gliders exist in an ...

Statistical characteristics of low complexity subshifts
I am looking for calculations of statistical characteristics (variance, entropy, etc.) of the $n$-dimensional distributions of the invariant measures of low complexity subshifts (e.g., the Sturmian or ...
