Gibbs states on the symbolic space over an infinite alphabet (Q5951509): Difference between revisions

The paper is devoted to the theory of conformal graph directed Markov systems. The central point here is an issue of the existence of Gibbs states, and eigenmeasures of the conjugate to the Perron-Frobenius operator, for the shift map on the symbolic space. The corresponding subshifts of finite type are generated by incidence matrices over a countable infinite alphabet. The definition of topological pressure is adopted to this context. A new class of Gibbs states of Hölder continuous potentials on these symbol spaces is introduced. Basic stochastic properties of Gibbs states are established, like e.g. exponential decay of correlations, central limit theorem and an a.s. invariance principle.
