Exponential mixing for subshifts

I asked this question on Math.StackExchange some time ago and got no responses. Let $G=(V,E)$ be a finite graph with adjacency matrix $A$. Let us consider the associated subshift of finite type $$ \...

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 ...

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 $\varphi: [0,1]\to [0,1]$, $...

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 ...

Is any invariant, ergodic measure with full support on an irreducible Markov shift a Markov measure?

I have this question I have been struggling with for a while. It seems rather intuitive, however, I was not able to proof it yet: Let $\Omega = \{1,2,\cdots,N\}$ a finite alphabet, $\Sigma \subset \...

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\}^{\...

weak-* versus entropy growth

General question. Let $\eta_{n}$ be a sequence of invariant measures on $\{0,1,2,...,p-1\}^{\mathbb{N}}$ and $B$ the Bernoulli uniform measure. Knowing that $\eta_{n} \rightarrow B$ in the weak-* ...

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 $...

entropy growth of invariant measures - General question

In general, given a sequence of shift-invariant measures $\eta_{n}$ on $\{0,1\}^{\mathbb{N}}$ what to do to guarantee this convergence of entropies: $$h(\eta_{n}) \rightarrow \log2?$$ Because I'm ...

entropy and d-bar: how do we estimate continuity?

Let $G = \{0,1\}^{\mathbb{N}} = \mathbb{Z}_{2}^{\mathbb{N}}$ be the Bernoulli space of two symbols, let $\sigma$ be the shift map and $M(G)$ the set of $\sigma$-invariant probabilities. Let $\bar{d}$ ...

joining or coupling

given two shift invariant measures in the Bernoulli space $\{0,1\}^{\mathbb{N}}$, is there a way to construct joinings of them? It's very diffcult, in general, to find exactly the minimal joining i.e, ...

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 ...
