Abstract

We prove a quenched limiting law for random measures on subshifts at periodic points. We consider a family of measures {μω}ωΩ\{\mu_\omega\}_{\omega\in\Omega}, where the `driving space' Ω\Omega is equipped with a probability measure which is invariant under a transformation θ\theta. We assume that the fibred measures μω\mu_\omega satisfy a generalised invariance property and are ψ\psi-mixing. We then show that for almost every ω\omega the return times to cylinders AnA_n at periodic points are in the limit compound Poisson distributed for a parameter ϑ\vartheta which is given by the escape rate at the periodic point.
