Abstract:

We extend the results of Walters on the uniqueness of invariant measures with maximal entropy on compact groups to an arbitrary locally compact group. We show that the maximal entropy is attained at the left Haar measure and the measure of maximal entropy is unique.

Measures of Maximal Relative Entropy

Given an irreducible subshift of finite type X , a subshift Y , a factor map π : X → Y , and an ergodic invariant measure ν on Y , there can exist more than one ergodic measure on X which projects to ν and has maximal entropy among all measures in the fiber, but there is an explicit bound on the number of such maximal entropy preimages.

Maximal-entropy random walk unifies centrality measures

This paper compares a number of centrality measures and several (dis-)similarity matrices with which they can be defined. These matrices, which are used among others in community detection methods, represent quantities connected to enumeration of paths on a graph and to random walks. Relationships between some of these matrices are derived in the paper. These relationships are inherited by the ...

Maximal entropy measures for Viana maps

In this note we construct measures of maximal entropy for a certain class of maps with critical points. The main application of our result is the existence of measures of maximal entropy for the so-called Viana maps.

Measures of Maximal Entropy for Random Β-expansions

Let β > 1 be a non-integer. We consider β-expansions of the form ∑∞ i=1 di βi , where the digits (di)i≥1 are generated by means of a random map Kβ defined on {0, 1}N× [0, bβc/(β − 1)]. We show that Kβ has a unique measure νβ of maximal entropy log(1 + bβc). Under this measure, the digits (di)i≥1 form a uniform Bernoulli process, and the projection of this measure on the second coordinate is an ...

Maximal Entropy Measures for Piecewise Affine Surface Homeomorphisms

We study the dynamics of piecewise affine surface homeomorphisms from the point of view of their entropy. Under the assumption of positive topological entropy, we establish the existence of finitely many ergodic and invariant probability measures maximizing entropy and prove a multiplicative lower bound for the number of periodic points. This is intended as a step towards the understanding of s...

Entropy and Measures of Maximal Entropy for Axial Powers of Subshifts

The notions of “limiting entropy” and “independence entropy” for one-dimensional subshifts were introduced by Louidor, Marcus, and the second author in [15]. It was also implicitly conjectured there that these two quantities are always equal. We verify this conjecture, which implies, among other things, that the limiting entropy of any one-dimensional SFT is of the form 1 n log k for k, n ∈ N. ...
