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 ...

continuity entropy with respect gibbs measures
Let $X=\{0,1\}^{\mathbb{N}}$. For simplicity I consider Bernoulli measures on $X$ only.
Let $f:X\to \mathbb{R}$ be Holder continuous. The measure $\mu$ is a Gibbs measure with potential $f$ if there ...

Convex combinations of Bernoulli Measures
How big is the weak-* closure of the set of all (finite) convex combinations of Bernoulli measures among all invariant probability measures?
I mean, we are in the symbolic space $\{1,2,\ldots,d\}^{\...

probability measures with entropy equal to nonnegative number
Is it true that for a given nonnegative number, there exists a measure-theoretical entropy value (supremum of entropies of all partitions under a measure-preserving transformation) that equals this ...

A modified Cantor and its measure
Recall that Cantor set can be defined as the set of numbers in $[0,1]$ that don't contain $1$ when written in ternary number system.
Alternatively if we consider the map $\varphi: [0,1]\to [0,1]$, $...

On a certain set of probability measures on a shift
Denote by $\mathbb{Z}_2=\{0,1\}$ the integers modulo 2.
Let $S:\mathbb{Z}_{2}^{\mathbb{N}}\times\mathbb{Z}_{2}^{\mathbb{N}} \rightarrow \mathbb{Z}_{2}^{\mathbb{N}}$ be the sum $S(a,b) = a+b$, where $...
