Abelian sandpiles and the harmonic model (Q533639): Difference between revisions

The authors consider the critical and sandpile models and present a construction of a surjective map from the \(d\)-dimensional critical sandpile model to a certain closed, shift-invariant subgroup of \(T^{Z^d},\) that preserves topological entropy, and maps every measure of maximal entropy to Haar measure on the harmonic model. A similar map is constructed for the dissipative abelian sandpile model and proved that the measure of maximal entropy on the dissipative sandpile model is unique and Bernoulli.
