Markovian properties of continuous group actions: algebraic actions, entropy and the homoclinic group
arXiv:1911.00785 · doi:10.1016/j.aim.2022.108196
Abstract
We provide a unifying approach which links results on algebraic actions by Lind and Schmidt, Chung and Li, and a topological result by Meyerovitch that relates entropy to the set of asymptotic pairs. In order to do this we introduce a series of Markovian properties and, under the assumption that they are satisfied, we prove several results that relate topological entropy and asymptotic pairs (the homoclinic group in the algebraic case). As new applications of our method, we give a characterization of the homoclinic group of any finitely presented expansive algebraic action of (1) any elementary amenable group with an upper bound on the orders of finite subgroups or (2) any left orderable amenable group, using the language of independence entropy pairs.
