Equivariant Flow Equivalence for Shifts of Finite Type, by Matrix Equivalence over Group Rings
نویسندگان
چکیده
Let G be a finite group. We classify G-equivariant flow equivalence of nontrivial irreducible shifts of finite type in terms of (i) elementary equivalence of matrices over ZG and (ii) the conjugacy class in ZG of the group of G-weights of cycles based at a fixed vertex. In the case G = Z/2, we have the classification for twistwise flow equivalence. We include some algebraic results and examples related to the determination of E(ZG) equivalence, which involves K1(ZG).

On Flow Equivalence of Sofic Shifts
The flow equivalence of sofic shifts is examined using results about the structure of the corresponding covers. A canonical cover generalising the left Fischer cover to arbitrary sofic shifts is introduced and used to prove that the left Krieger cover and the past set cover of a sofic shift can be divided into natural layers. These results are used to find the range of a flow invariant and to i...
متن کاملFlow Equivalence of Shifts of Finite Type via Positive Factorizations
Together with M. Boyle and D. Huang (2000), this paper gives an alternate development of the Huang classification of shifts of finite type up to flow equivalence, and provides additional functorial information, used to analyze the action of the mapping class group of the mapping torus of a shift of finite type on the “isotopy futures” group, which is introduced here. For a shift of finite type ...
متن کاملFlow Equivalence of Reducible Shifts of Finite Type and Cuntz-krieger Algebras
Using ltered Bowen-Franks group BF ? (A), we classify reducible shifts of nite type A with nite BF(A) up to ow equivalence. Using this result and some new development in C-algebras due to RRrdam and Cuntz, we classify non-simple Cuntz-Krieger algebras O A with nite K 0 (O A) up to stable isomorphism by the ltered K 0-group K ? 0 (O A); up to unital isomorphism by K ? 0 (O A) together with the d...
متن کاملDynamical correspondences for Smale spaces
We initiate the study of correspondences for Smale spaces. Correspondences are shown to provide a notion of a generalized morphism between Smale spaces and are a special case of finite equivalences. Furthermore, for shifts of finite type, a correspondence is related to a matrix which intertwines the adjacency matrices of the shifts. This observation allows us to define an equivalence relation o...
متن کاملFinite Group Extensions of Shifts of Finite Type: K-theory, Parry and Livšic
This paper extends and applies algebraic invariants and constructions for mixing finite group extensions of shifts of finite type. For a finite abelian group G, Parry showed how to define a G-extension SA from a square matrix over Z+G, and classified the extensions up to topological conjugacy by the strong shift equivalence class of A over Z+G. Parry asked in this case if the dynamical zeta fun...
