Given an irreducible sofic shift X, we show that an an irreducible SFT Y of lower entropy is a factor of X if and only if it is a factor of X by an open bi-continuing code. If these equivalent conditions hold and Y is mixing, then any code…

In this work we study the entropies of subsystems of shifts of finite type (SFTs) and sofic shifts on countable amenable groups. We prove that for any countable amenable group $G$, if $X$ is a $G$-SFT with positive topological entropy $h(X)…

Generalizing a result of MacDonald we give necessary and sufficient conditions for an arbitrary subshift to embed into an irreducible sofic shift factoring through a given cover by an irreducible subshift of finite type (SFT). We obtain…

In this paper, we consider different classes of subshifts and study their perturbations obtained by forbidding sequences that contain a given word as a subword. We show that the perturbations of sofic shifts are sofic. Though not true for…

Given a factor code $\pi$ from a one-dimensional shift of finite type $X$ onto an irreducible sofic shift $Y$, if $\pi$ is finite-to-one there is an invariant called the degree of $\pi$ which is defined the number of preimages of a typical…

We investigate what happens when we try to work with continuing block codes (i.e. left or right continuing factor maps) between shift spaces that may not be shifts of finite type. For example, we demonstrate that continuing block codes on…

We show that an arbitrary factor map $\pi:X \to Y$ on an irreducible subshift of finite type is a composition of a finite-to-one factor code and a class degree one factor code. Using this structure theorem on infinite-to-one factor codes,…

We define class-closing factor codes from shifts of finite type and show that they are continuing if their images are of finite type. We establish several relations between class-closing factor codes, continuing factor codes and…

We compute the entanglement entropy in a composite system separated by a finitely ramified boundary with the structure of a self-similar lattice graph. We derive the entropy as a function of the decimation factor which determines the…

We show that the values of entropies of multidimensional shifts of finite type (SFTs) are characterized by a certain computation-theoretic property: a real number $h\geq 0$ is the entropy of such an SFT if and only if it is right…

Given a factor code $\pi$ from a shift of finite type $X$ onto a sofic shift $Y$, the class degree of $\pi$ is defined to be the minimal number of transition classes over points of $Y$. In this paper we investigate structure of transition…

We consider topological dynamical systems $(X,T)$, where $X$ is a compact metrizable space and $T$ denotes an action of a countable amenable group $G$ on $X$ by homeomorphisms. For two such systems $(X,T)$ and $(Y,S)$ and a factor map $\pi…

Classification is a central problem for dynamical systems, in particular for families that arise in a wide range of topics, like substitution subshifts. It is important to be able to distinguish whether two such subshifts are isomorphic,…

Any coded subshift X defined by a set C of code words contains a subshift, which we call L, consisting of limits of single code words. We show that when C satisfies a unique decomposition property, the topological entropy h(X) of X is…

Many smoothness spaces in harmonic analysis are decomposition spaces. In this paper we ask: Given two decomposition spaces, is there an embedding between the two? A decomposition space $\mathcal{D}(\mathcal{Q}, L^p, Y)$ can be described…

We study the compact embedding between smoothness Morrey spaces on bounded domains and characterise its entropy numbers. Here we discover a new phenomenon when the difference of smoothness parameters in the source and target spaces is…

We study ergodic-theoretic properties of coded shift spaces. A coded shift space is defined as a closure of all bi-infinite concatenations of words from a fixed countable generating set. We derive sufficient conditions for the uniqueness of…

Given a countable group $G$ and two subshifts $X$ and $Y$ over $G$, a continuous, shift-commuting map $\phi : X \to Y$ is called a homomorphism. Our main result states that if every finitely generated subgroup of $G$ has polynomial growth,…

This work is an enquiry into the circumstances under which entropy methods can give an answer to the questions of both quantum separability and classical correlations of a composite state. Several entropy functionals are employed to examine…

We prove a generalization of Krieger's embedding theorem, in the spirit of zero-error information theory. Specifically, given a mixing shift of finite type $X$, a mixing sofic shift $Y$, and a surjective sliding block code $\pi: X \to Y$,…
