Let $G$ be a sofic group, and let $\Sigma = (\sigma_n)_{n\geq 1}$ be a sofic approximation to it. For a probability-preserving $G$-system, a variant of the sofic entropy relative to $\Sigma$ has recently been defined in terms of sequences…

In this paper, we study a class of Banach spaces, called \phi-spaces. In a natural way, we associate a measure of weak compactness in such spaces and prove an analogue of Sadovskii fixed point theorem for weakly sequentially continuous…

We deal with countable alphabet locally compact random subshifts of finite type (the latter merely meaning that the symbol space is generated by an incidence matrix) under the absence of Big Images Property and under the absence of uniform…

We study the ergodic properties of a class of measures on $\Sigma^{\mathbb{Z}}$ for which $\mu_{\mathcal{A},t}[x_{0}\cdots x_{n-1}]\approx e^{-nP}\left \|A_{x_{0}}\cdots A_{x_{n-1}}\right \| ^{t}$, where $\mathcal{A}=(A_{0}, \ldots ,…

Let $(X,\mu)$ be a standard probability space. An automorphism $T$ of $(X,\mu)$ has the weak Pinsker property if for every $\varepsilon > 0$ it has a splitting into a direct product of a Bernoulli shift and an automorphism of entropy less…

Given an irreducible subshift of finite type X, a subshift Y, a factor map \pi : X \to Y, and an ergodic invariant measure \nu on Y, there can exist more than one ergodic measure on X which projects to \nu and has maximal entropy among all…

Domino tilings have been studied extensively for both their statistical properties and their dynamical properties. We construct a subshift of finite type using matching rules for several types of dominos. We combine the previous results…

We consider stochastic dynamics of lattice systems with finite local state space, possibly at low temperature, and possibly non-reversible. We assume the additional regularity properties on the dynamics: a) There is at least one stationary…

Let $\Sigma_{A}$ be a topologically mixing shift of finite type, let $\sigma:\Sigma_{A}\to\Sigma_{A}$ be the usual left-shift, and let $\mu$ be the Gibbs measure for a H\"{o}lder continuous potential that is not cohomologous to a constant.…

We study a broad class of local homeomorphisms and continuous potentials, proving the existence and uniqueness of weak Gibbs measures. From the Gibbs property, we show the uniqueness of equilibrium states and derive a large deviations…

We construct spectral metric spaces for Gibbs measures on a one-sided topologically exact subshift of finite type. That is, for a given Gibbs measure we construct a spectral triple and show that Connes' corresponding pseudo-metric is a…

Let $\pi$ be a factor map from a one-dimensional mixing shift of finite type $X$ onto a sofic shift $Y$. We investigate when $\pi$ sends Gibbs measures on $X$ to non-Gibbs measures on $Y$.

We show that the class of sofic actions is closed under direct products and contains a (non-unique) maximal element in the weak containment order. For any sofic group we construct nice sofic approximations such that all the sofic actions…

A probability-measure-preserving transformation has the Weak Pinsker Property (WPP) if for every $\epsilon>0$ it is measurably conjugate to the direct product of a transformation with entropy $<\epsilon$ and a Bernoulli shift. In a recent…

For SFTs, any equilibrium measure is Gibbs, as long a $f$ has $d$-summable variation. This is a theorem of Lanford and Ruelle. Conversely, a theorem of Dobru{\v{s}}in states that for strongly-irreducible subshifts, shift-invariant…

For H\"older continuous functions $f_i$, $i=0,\ldots ,d$, on a subshift of finite type and $\Theta\subset \mathbb \R^d$ we consider a parametrized family of potentials $\{F_\theta= f_0+\sum_{i=1}^d \theta_i f_i : \theta\in \Theta\}$. We…

Let $\Gamma$ be a sofic group, $\Sigma$ be a sofic approximation sequence of $\Gamma$ and $X$ be a $\Gamma$-subshift with nonnegative sofic topological entropy with respect to $\Sigma$. Further assume that $X$ is a shift of finite type, or…

We study a class of strongly irreducible, multidimensional, topological Markov shifts, comparing two notions of "symmetric measure": exchangeability and the Gibbs (or conformal) property. We show that equilibrium measures for such shifts…

We study the thermodynamic formalism for particular types of sub-additive sequences on a class of subshifts over countable alphabets. The subshifts we consider include factors of irreducible countable Markov shifts under certain conditions.…

We show that the measure of maximal entropy for the hereditary closure of a $\mathscr{B}$-free subshift has the Gibbs property if and only if the Mirsky measure of the subshift is purely atomic. This answers an open question asked by…
