Abstract
For full shifts on finite alphabets, Coelho and Quas showed that the map that sends a H\"older continuous potential to its equilibrium state is -continuous. We extend this result to the setting of full shifts on countable (infinite) alphabets. As part of the proof, we show that the map that sends a strongly positive recurrent potential to its normalization is continuous for potentials on mixing countable state Markov shifts.
