We show that any finite-entropy, countable-valued finitary factor of an i.i.d process can also be expressed as a finitary factor of a finite-valued i.i.d process whose entropy is arbitrarily close to the target process. As an application,…
A factor graph of a point process is a graph whose vertices are the points of the process, and which is constructed from the process in a deterministic isometry-invariant way. We prove that the d-dimensional Poisson process has a one-ended…
Consider an ergodic Markov chain on a countable state space for which the return times have exponential tails. We show that the stationary version of any such chain is a finitary factor of an i.i.d. process. A key step is to show that any…
We prove that every (possibly infinite) graph of degree at most $d$ has a 4-dependent random proper $4^{d(d+1)/2}$-coloring, and one can construct it as a finitary factor of iid. For unimodular transitive (or unimodular random) graphs we…
This paper studies infinite graphs produced from a natural unfolding operation applied to finite graphs. Graphs produced via such operations are of finite degree and automatic over the unary alphabet (that is, they can be described by…
We prove that any non-amenable Cayley graph admits a factor of IID perfect matching. We also show that any connected d-regular vertex tran- sitive graph admits a perfect matching. The two results together imply that every Cayley graph…
A random field $X = (X_v)_{v \in G}$ on a quasi-transitive graph $G$ is a factor of i.i.d. if it can be written as $X=\varphi(Y)$ for some i.i.d. process $Y= (Y_v)_{v \in G}$ and equivariant map $\varphi$. Such a map, also called a coding,…
Holroyd and Liggett recently proved the existence of a stationary 1-dependent 4-coloring of the integers, the first stationary k-dependent q-coloring for any k and q. That proof specifies a consistent family of finite-dimensional…
We study isomorphism invariant point processes of $\mathbb{R}^d$ whose groups of symmetries are almost surely trivial. We define a 1-ended, locally finite tree factor on the points of the process, that is, a mapping of the point…
Guided by classical concepts, we define the notion of \emph{ends} of an iterated function system and prove that the number of ends is an upper bound for the number of nondegenerate components of its attractor. The remaining isolated points…
We develop a method to prove that certain percolation processes on amenable random rooted graphs are factors of iid (fiid), given that the process is a monotone limit of random finite subgraphs that satisfy a certain independent stochastic…
We prove that a measure on $[-d, d]$ is the spectral measure of a factor of i.i.d. process on a vertex-transitive infinite graph if and only if it is absolutely continuous with respect to the spectral measure of the graph. Moreover, we show…
Construct a random set by independently selecting each finite subset of the integers with some probability depending on the set up to translations and taking the union of the selected sets. We show that when the only sets selected with…
We prove that the invariably generating graph of a finite group can have an arbitrarily large number of connected components with at least two vertices.
We study various classes of random processes defined on the regular tree $T_d$ that are invariant under the automorphism group of $T_d$. Most important ones are factor of i.i.d. processes (randomized local algorithms), branching Markov…
A function $J$ defined on a family $C$ of stationary processes is finitely observable if there is a sequence of functions $s_n$ such that $s_n(x_1 ... x_n)\to J(X)$ in probability for every process $X=(x_n)\in C$. Recently, Ornstein and…
A theorem of Hoffman gives an upper bound on the independence ratio of regular graphs in terms of the minimum $\lambda_{\min}$ of the spectrum of the adjacency matrix. To complement this result we use random eigenvectors to gain lower…
Necessary and sufficient conditions for a finite connected graph with a strict partial order on vertices to be a combinatorial invariant of pseudoharmonic function are obtained.
We show the invalidity of finitary counterparts for three classification theorems: The preservation of being a Bernoulli shift through factors, Sinai's factor theorem, and the weak Pinsker property. We construct a finitary factor of an…
We show that a large class of stationary continuous-time regenerative processes are finitarily isomorphic to one another. The key is showing that any stationary renewal point process whose jump distribution is absolutely continuous with…
