Abstract

We give an upper bound for the topological entropy of maps on inverse limit spaces in terms of their set-valued components. In a special case of a diagonal map on the inverse limit space lim(I,f)\underleftarrow{\lim}(I,f), where every diagonal component is the same map g ⁣:IIg\colon I\to I which strongly commutes with ff (i.e. f1g=gf1f^{-1}\circ g=g\circ f^{-1}), we show that the entropy equals max{Ent(f),Ent(g)}\max\{\textrm{Ent}(f),\textrm{Ent}(g)\}. As a side product, we develop some techniques for computing topological entropy of set-valued maps.
