Week 11 Tutorial

  1. For the matrix B=[0110] describe the set Z=nN{x{0,1}N:B(x(n),x(n+1))=1} defined by only allowing transitions from B.
  2. What is the unique shift-invariant probability measure ν on Z?
  3. What is the entropy of ν?
  4. Now for Y=nN{x{0,1}N:x(n)=1x(n+2)=0} determine the cylinders of length three that are disjoint from Y.

Fix probabilities p(0)+p(1)=1q(0,0)+q(0,1)=1=q(1,0)+q(1,1) with [p(0)p(1)][q(0,0)q(0,1)q(1,0)q(1,1)]=[p(0)p(1)]

  1. For which values does the corresponding Markov measure μ([ϵ1ϵr])=p(ϵ1)q(ϵ1,ϵ2)q(ϵr1,ϵr) satisfy μ(Y)=1? What are those measures?
  2. Come up with a four-vertex graph and a Markov measure η on {0,1,2,3}N and a map π:{0,1,2,3}N{0,1}N such that ξ=ηπ1 is a measure on {0,1}N with ξ(Y)=1.
