Nonabelian free group actions: Markov processes, the Abramov-Rohlin formula and Yuzvinskii’s formula
This paper introduces Markov chains and processes over nonabelian free groups and semigroups. We prove a formula for the f -invariant of a Markov chain over a free group in terms of transition matrices that parallels the classical formula for the entropy a Markov chain. Applications include free group analogues of the AbramovRohlin formula for skew-product actions and Yuzvinskii’s addition form...
متن کاملKrieger’s Finite Generator Theorem for Actions of Countable Groups I
For an ergodic p.m.p. action G y (X,μ) of a countable group G, we define the Rokhlin entropy hRok G (X,μ) to be the infimum of the Shannon entropies of countable generating partitions. It is known that for free ergodic actions of amenable groups this notion coincides with classical Kolmogorov– Sinai entropy. It is thus natural to view Rokhlin entropy as a close analogue to classical entropy. Un...
متن کاملN ov 2 00 2 ENTROPY GEOMETRY AND DISJOINTNESS FOR ZERO - DIMENSIONAL ALGEBRAIC ACTIONS
We show that many algebraic actions of higher-rank abelian groups on zero-dimensional groups are mutually disjoint. The proofs exploit differences in the entropy geometry arising from subdynamics and a form of Abramov–Rokhlin formula for half-space entropies. We discuss some mutual disjointness properties of algebraic actions of higher-rank abelian groups on zero-dimensional groups. The tools u...
متن کاملKrieger’s Finite Generator Theorem for Actions of Countable Groups Ii
We continue the study of Rokhlin entropy, an isomorphism invariant for p.m.p. actions of countable groups introduced in the previous paper. We prove that every free ergodic action with finite Rokhlin entropy admits generating partitions which are almost Bernoulli, strengthening the theorem of Abért–Weiss that all free actions weakly contain Bernoulli shifts. We then use this result to study the...
متن کاملCompact Group Automorphisms, Addition Formulas and Fuglede-kadison Determinants
For a countable amenable group Γ and an element f in the integral group ring ZΓ being invertible in the group von Neumann algebra of Γ, we show that the entropy of the shift action of Γ on the Pontryagin dual of the quotient of ZΓ by its left ideal generated by f is the logarithm of the Fuglede-Kadison determinant of f . For the proof, we establish an `-version of Rufus Bowen’s definition of to...
