We investigate the entropy for a class of upper semi-continuous set-valued functions, called Markov set-valued functions, that are a generalization of single-valued Markov interval functions. It is known that the entropy of a Markov interval function can be found by calculating the entropy of an associated shift of finite type. In this paper, we construct a similar shift of finite type for Markov set-valued functions and use this shift space to find upper and lower bounds on the entropy of the set-valued function.

AbstractIn this paper, we study perturbations of multidimensional shifts of finite type. Specifically, for any ℤd shift of finite type X with d>1 and any finite pattern w in the language of X, we denote by Xw the set of elements of X not containing w. For strongly irreducible X and patterns w with shape a d-dimensional cube, we obtain upper and lower bounds on htop (X)−htop (Xw) dependent on the size of w. This extends a result of Lind for d=1 . We also apply our methods to an undecidability question in ℤd symbolic dynamics.

Let $(X_{A},\unicode[STIX]{x1D70E}_{A})$ be a shift of finite type and $\text{Aut}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D70E}_{A})$ its corresponding automorphism group. Associated to $\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}\in \text{Aut}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D70E}_{A})$ are certain Lyapunov exponents $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}^{-}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}),\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}^{+}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D719})$, which describe asymptotic behavior of the sequence of coding ranges of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}^{n}$. We give lower bounds on $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}^{-}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}),\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}^{+}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D719})$ in terms of the spectral radius of the corresponding action of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}$ on the dimension group associated to $(X_{A},\unicode[STIX]{x1D70E}_{A})$. We also give lower bounds on the topological entropy $h_{\text{top}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D719})$ in terms of a distinguished part of the spectrum of the action of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}$ on the dimension group, but show that, in general, $h_{\text{top}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D719})$ is not bounded below by the logarithm of the spectral radius of the action of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}$ on the dimension group.

We explore the concept of metastability in random dynamical systems, focusing on connections between random Perron–Frobenius operator cocycles and escape rates of random maps, and on topological entropy of random shifts of finite type. The Lyapunov spectrum of the random Perron–Frobenius cocycle and the random adjacency matrix cocycle is used to decompose the random system into two disjoint random systems with rigorous upper and lower bounds on (i) the escape rate in the setting of random maps, and (ii) topological entropy in the setting of random shifts of finite type, respectively.

AbstractThe classification of dynamical systems by the existence of certain common extensions has been carried out very successfully in the class of shifts of finite type (‘finite equivalence’, ‘almost topological conjugacy‘). We consider generalizations of these notions in the class of coded systems. Topological entropy is shown to be a complete invariant for the existence of a common coded entropy preserving extension. In contrast to the shift of finite type setting, this extension cannot be made bounded-to-1 in general. Common extensions with hyperbolic factor maps lead to a version of almost topological conjugacy for coded systems.

AbstractLet π be a factor map from an irreducible shift of finite type X to a shift space Y. Let ν be an invariant probability measure on Y with full support. We show that every measure on X of maximal relative entropy over ν is fully supported. As a result, given any invariant probability measure ν on Y with full support, there is an invariant probability measure μ on X with full support that maps to ν under π. If ν is ergodic, μ can be chosen to be ergodic. These results can be generalized to the case of sofic shifts. We demonstrate that the results do not extend to general shift spaces by providing counterexamples.

AbstractA set Λ is internally chain transitive if for any x,y∈Λ and ϵ>0 there is an ϵ-pseudo-orbit in Λ between x and y. In this paper we characterize all ω-limit sets in shifts of finite type by showing that, if Λ is a closed, strongly shift-invariant subset of a shift of finite type, X, then there is a point z∈X with ω(z)=Λ if and only if Λ is internally chain transitive. It follows immediately that any closed, strongly shift-invariant, internally chain transitive subset of a shift space over some alphabet ℬ is the ω-limit set of some point in the full shift space over ℬ. We use similar techniques to prove that, for a tent map f, a closed, strongly f-invariant, internally chain transitive subset of the interval is the ω-limit set of a point provided it does not contain the image of the critical point. We give an example of a sofic shift space Z𝒢 (a factor of a shift space of finite type) that is not of finite type that has an internally chain transitive subset that is not the ω-limit set of any point in Z𝒢.

The generalized distance matrix D α ( G ) of a connected graph G is defined as D α ( G ) = α T r ( G ) + ( 1 − α ) D ( G ) , where 0 ≤ α ≤ 1 , D ( G ) is the distance matrix and T r ( G ) is the diagonal matrix of the node transmissions. In this paper, we extend the concept of energy to the generalized distance matrix and define the generalized distance energy E D α ( G ) . Some new upper and lower bounds for the generalized distance energy E D α ( G ) of G are established based on parameters including the Wiener index W ( G ) and the transmission degrees. Extremal graphs attaining these bounds are identified. It is found that the complete graph has the minimum generalized distance energy among all connected graphs, while the minimum is attained by the star graph among trees of order n.

Abstract The main aim of this paper is to establish some Fejér-type inequalities involving hypergeometric functions in terms of GA-s-convexity. For this purpose, we construct a Hadamard k-fractional identity related to geometrically symmetric mappings. Moreover, we give the upper and lower bounds for the weighted inequalities via products of two different mappings. Some applications of the presented results to special means are also provided.
