Abstract: In this article, we compare the dynamics of the shift map and its induced counterpart on the hyperspace of the shift space. We show that many of the properties of induced shift map can be easily demonstrated by appropriate sequences of symbols. We compare the dynamics of the shift system $(Omega,sigma)$ with its induced counterpart $(mathcalK(Omega),overlinesigma)$, where $mathcalK(Omega)$ is the hyperspace of all nonempty compact subsets of $Omega$. Recently, such comparisons have been studied a lot for general spaces. We continue the same study in case of shift spaces, and bring out the significance of such a study in terms of sequences. We compare the mixing properties, denseness of periodic points, various forms of sensitivity and expansivity of the shift map and its induced counterpart. In particular, we show their equivalence in case of the full shift. We also look into the special case of subshifts of finite type, and in particular prove that the properties of weakly mixing, mixing and sensitivity are equivalent in both systems. And in the case of any general subshift, we show that the concept of cofinite sensitivity is equivalent in both systems and for transitive subshifts, cofinite sensitivity is equivalent to syndectic sensitivity. In the process we prove that all sturmian subshifts are cofinitely sensitive.
