Abstract: The purpose of this article is twofold. On one hand, we reveal the equivalence of shift of finite type between a one-sided shift X and its associated hom tree-shift mathcalTX, as well as the equivalence in the sofic shift. On the other hand, we investigate the interrelationship among the comparable mixing properties on tree-shifts as those on multidimensional shift spaces. They include irreducibility, topologically mixing, block gluing, and strong irreducibility, all of which are defined in the spirit of classical multidimensional shift, complete prefix code (CPC), and uniform CPC. In summary, the mixing properties defined in all three manners coincide for mathcalTX. Furthermore, an equivalence between irreducibility on mathcalTA and irreducibility on XA are seen, and so is one between topologically mixing on mathcalTA and mixing property on XA, where XA is the one-sided shift space induced by the matrix A and TA is the associated tree-shift. These equivalences are consistent with the mixing properties on X or XA when viewed as a degenerate tree-shift.
