$\overline{d}$-continuity for countable state shifts

Dynamical Systems 2026-02-04 v1

Abstract

For full shifts on finite alphabets, Coelho and Quas showed that the map that sends a H\"older continuous potential ϕ\phi to its equilibrium state μϕ\mu_\phi is d\overline{d}-continuous. We extend this result to the setting of full shifts on countable (infinite) alphabets. As part of the proof, we show that the map that sends a strongly positive recurrent potential to its normalization is continuous for potentials on mixing countable state Markov shifts.
