A note on specification for iterated function systems (Q258240)

Let \(X\) be a compact metric space and \(\mathfrak{D}\) be a collection of homeomorphisms of \(X\) with closed domains of definition. In the article the authors consider an iterated function system (IFS) \(\mathfrak{D}\), i.e., for which there is a set \(O\subseteq X\) such that \[ \emptyset\neq\bigcup_{v\in\mathfrak{D}}v(\mathrm{Dom}\,v\cap O)\subset\bigcup_{v\in\mathfrak{D}}\mathrm{Dom}\,v\cap O. \] There are considered for IFS the notions of (finite) specification, (finite) weak specifications, topological entropy, algebraic pressure and their properties. This work continues the study of the last two authors in [Contemporary Mathematics 631, 93--108 (2015; Zbl 1344.37040)]. The main results state that for IFS \(\mathfrak{D}\) with finite weak specification property topological entropy and algebraic pressure are the suprema of topological entropies and algebraic pressures respectively for finite IFS's \({\mathfrak{D}^{(0)}\subset\mathfrak{D}}\).
