چکیده
Let X1, X2 be mixing connected algebraic dynamical systems with the descending chain condition. We show that every equivariant continuous map X1 → X2 is affine (that is, X2 is topologically rigid) if and only if the system X2 has finite topological entropy.

F eb 2 00 3 FINITE ENTROPY CHARACTERIZES TOPOLOGICAL RIGIDITY ON CONNECTED GROUPS
Let X 1 , X 2 be mixing connected algebraic dynamical systems with the Descending Chain Condition. We show that every equivariant continuous map X 1 → X 2 is affine (that is, X 2 is topologically rigid) if and only if the system X 2 has finite topolog-ical entropy.
متن کاملEntropy operator for continuous dynamical systems of finite topological entropy
In this paper we introduce the concept of entropy operator for continuous systems of finite topological entropy. It is shown that it generates the Kolmogorov entropy as a special case. If $phi$ is invertible then the entropy operator is bounded with the topological entropy of $phi$ as its norm.
متن کاملTopological Entropy and the Variational Principle for Actions of Sofic Groups
Recently Lewis Bowen introduced a notion of entropy for measure-preserving actions of a countable sofic group on a standard probability space admitting a generating partition with finite entropy. By applying an operator algebra perspective we develop a more general approach to sofic entropy which produces both measure and topological dynamical invariants. We establish the variational principle ...

متن کاملThe Connected Isentropes Conjecture in a Space of Quartic Polynomials
This note is a shortened version of my dissertation thesis, defended at Stony Brook University in December 2004. It illustrates how dynamic complexity of a system evolves under deformations. The objects I considered are quartic polynomial maps of the interval that are compositions of two logistic maps. In the parameter space P of such maps, I considered the algebraic curves corresponding to the...
