Abstract

Let GG be a countable discrete amenable group which acts continuously on a compact metric space XX and let μ\mu be an ergodic GG-invariant Borel probability measure on XX. For a fixed tempered F{\o}lner sequence {Fn}\{F_n\} in GG with limn+Fnlogn=\lim\limits_{n\rightarrow+\infty}\frac{|F_n|}{\log n}=\infty, we prove the following variational principle: hB(Gμ,{Fn})=hμ(X,G),h^B(G_{\mu},\{F_n\})=h_{\mu}(X,G), where GμG_{\mu} is the set of generic points for μ\mu with respect to {Fn}\{F_n\} and hB(Gμ,{Fn})h^B(G_{\mu},\{F_n\}) is the Bowen topological entropy (along {Fn}\{F_n\}) on GμG_{\mu}. This generalizes the classical result of Bowen in 1973.
