On the quantized dynamics of factorial languages
Abstract
We study local piecewise conjugacy of the quantized dynamics arising from factorial languages. We show that it induces a bijection between allowable words of same length and thus it preserves entropy. In the case of sofic factorial languages we prove that local piecewise conjugacy translates to unlabeled graph isomorphism of the follower set graphs. Moreover it induces an unlabeled graph isomorphism between the Fischer covers of irreducible subshifts. We verify that local piecewise conjugacy does not preserve finite type nor irreducibility; but it preserves soficity. Moreover it implies identification (up to a permutation) for factorial languages of type if, and only if, the follower set function is one-to-one on the symbol set.
