Abstract: Denote the points in {1,2,..,r}^{Z}= {1,2,..,r}^{N} x {1,2,..,r}^{N} by ({y}^*, {x}). Given a Lipschitz continuous observable A: {1,2,..,r}^{Z} o {R} , we define the map {G}^+: {H} o {H} by {G}^+(phi)({y}^*) = sup_{mu in {M}_sigma} [int_{{1,2,..,r}^{N}} ( A({y}^*, {x}) + phi({x})) dmu({x}) + h_mu(sigma) ], where: sigma is the left shift map acting on {1,2,..,r}^{N}; {M}_sigma denotes the set of sigma-invariant Borel probabilities; h_mu(sigma) indicates the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy; {H } is the Banach space of Lipschitz real-valued functions on {1,2,..,r}^{N}. We show there exist a unique phi^+ in {H } and a unique lambda^+in {R} such that {G}^+ (phi^+) = phi^+ + lambda^+. We say that phi^+ is the effective potential associated to A. This also defines a family of sigma-invariant Borel probabilities mu_{{y}^*} on {1,2,..,r}^{N}, indexed by the points {y}^* in {1,2,..,r}^{N}. Finally, for A fixed and for variable positive real values �eta, we consider the same problem for the Lipschitz observable �eta A. We investigate then the asymptotic limit when �eta o infty of the effective potential (which depends now on �eta) as well as the above family of probabilities. We relate the limit objects with an ergodic version of Kantorovich transshipment problem. In statistical mechanics �eta propto 1/T, where T is the absolute temperature. In this way, we are also analyzing the problem related to the effective potential at temperature zero.
