Abstract
Our notation: Points in {0,1}Z−{0}={0,1}N×{0,1}N=Ω−×Ω+, are denoted by (y∣x)=(...,y2,y1∣x1,x2,...), where (x1,x2,...)∈{0,1}N, and (y1,y2,...)∈{0,1}N. The bijective map σ^(...,y2,y1∣x1,x2,...)=(...,y2,y1,x1∣x2,...) is called the bilateral shift and acts on {0,1}Z−{0}. Given A:{0,1}N=Ω+→R we express A in the variable x, like A(x). In a similar way, given B:{0,1}N=Ω−→R we express B in the variable y, like B(y). Finally, given W:Ω−×Ω+→R, we express W in the variable (y∣x), like W(y∣x). By abuse of notation we write A(y∣x)=A(x) and B(y∣x)=B(y). The probability μA denotes the equilibrium probability for A:{0,1}N→R. Given a continuous potential A:Ω+→R, we say that the continuous potential A∗:Ω−→R is the dual potential of A, if there exists a continuous W:Ω−×Ω+→R, such that, for all (y∣x)∈{0,1}Z−{0} A∗(y)=[A∘σ^−1+W∘σ^−1−W](y∣x). We say that W is an involution kernel for A. The function W allows you to define an spectral projection in the linear space of the main eigenfunction of the Ruelle operator for A. Given A, we describe explicit expressions for W and the dual potential A∗, for A in a family of functions introduced by P. Walters. We present conditions for A to be symmetric and to be of twist type.
