Abstract

We show that the (Gurevich) topological entropy for the countable Markov shift associated with an infinite transition matrix AA coincides with the non-commutative topological entropy for the Exel--Laca algebra associated with AA, under certain conditions on AA. An important example satisfying the conditions is the renewal shift, which is not locally finite. We also pose interesting questions for future research on non-commutative topological entropy for non-locally finite transition matrices.
