Abstract
We prove that if is a countably infinite group and and are probability spaces having equal Shannon entropy, then the Bernoulli shifts and are isomorphic. This extends Ornstein's famous isomorphism theorem to all countably infinite groups. Our proof builds on a slightly weaker theorem by Lewis Bowen in 2011 that required both and have at least points in their support. We furthermore produce finitary isomorphisms in the case where both and are finite.
