A note on the surjunctivity of algebraic dynamical systems

Abstract

Let $X$ be a compact metrizable group and $\Gamma$ a countable group acting on $X$ by continuous group automorphisms. We give sufficient conditions under which the dynamical system $(X,\Gamma )$ is surjunctive, i.e., every injective continuous map $\tau :X\to X$ commuting with the action of $\Gamma$ is surjective.
