The Euler adic dynamical system and path counts in the Euler graph

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We give a formula for generalized Eulerian numbers, prove monotonicity of sequences of certain ratios of the Eulerian numbers, and apply these results to obtain a new proof that the natural symmetric measure for the Bratteli-Vershik dynamical system based on the Euler graph is the unique fully supported invariant ergodic Borel probability measure. Key ingredients of the proof are a two-dimensional induction argument and a one-to-one correspondence between most paths from two vertices at the same level to another vertex.


This paper gives a new proof that the natural symmetric measure for the Bratteli--Vershik topological dynamical system built on the Euler graph is the unique fully supported ergodic invariant Borel probability measure. The approach taken here may be more amenable to generalization to higher-dimensional situations, and identifies the generic points. The approach here makes use of explicit formulas for generalized Euler numbers and monotonicity results for certain ratios of such numbers.
