The Rosenblatt Mixing Condition and Bernoulli Shifts

Weak isomorphisms between Bernoulli shifts

In this note, we prove that if G is a countable group that contains a nonabelian free subgroup then every pair of nontrivial Bernoulli shifts over G are weakly isomorphic.

Brooks’ theorem for Bernoulli shifts

If Γ is an infinite group with finite symmetric generating set S, we consider the graph G(Γ, S) on [0, 1]Γ by relating two distinct points if an element of s sends one to the other via the shift action. We show that, aside from the cases Γ = Z and Γ = (Z/2Z) ∗ (Z/2Z), G(Γ, S) satisfies a measure-theoretic version of Brooks’ theorem: there is a G(Γ, S)-invariant conull Borel set B ⊆ [0, 1]Γ and ...

Z Group Shifts and Bernoulli Factors

In this paper, a group shift is an expansive action of Zd on a compact metrizable zero dimensional group by continuous automorphisms. All group shifts factor topologically onto equal-entropy Bernoulli shifts; abelian group shifts factor by continuous group homomorphisms onto canonical equalentropy Bernoulli group shifts; and completely positive entropy abelian group shifts are weakly algebraica...

On ASEP with Step Bernoulli Initial Condition

This paper extends results of earlier work on ASEP to the case of step Bernoulli initial condition. The main results are a representation in terms of a Fredholm determinant for the probability distribution of a fixed particle, and asymptotic results which in particular establish KPZ universality for this probability in one regime. (And, as a corollary, for the current fluctuations.)
