In order to approximate a continuous time stochastic process by discrete time Markov chains one has several options to embed the Markov chains into continuous time processes. On the one hand there is the Markov embedding, which uses…
We study the problem of lifting a measure to an induced map $F(x)=f^{R(x)}(x)$. In particular, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for an ergodic $f$ invariant probability $\mu$ to be $F$-liftable as well as a condition for the…

We show that if $(X, \mu, T)$ is a probability measure-preserving dynamical system, and $\mathscr{P}$ is a countable partition of $(X, \mu)$, then the limit $$ \lim_{n, k \to \infty} \mathbb{E} \left[ \frac{1}{k} \sum_{j = 0}^{k - 1} f…

The method of maximum entropy (ME) is extended to address the following problem: Once one accepts that the ME distribution is to be preferred over all others, the question is to what extent are distributions with lower entropy supposed to…
