Let $G=leftlangle S|R_{A}rightrangle $ be a semigroup with generating set $ S$ and equivalences $R_{A}$ among $S$ determined by a matrix $A$. This paper investigates the complexity of $G$-shift spaces by yielding the topological entropies. After revealing the existence of topological entropy of $G$-shift of finite type ($G$-SFT), the calculation of topological entropy of $G$-SFT is equivalent to solving a system of nonlinear recurrence equations. The complete characterization of topological entropies of $G$-SFTs on two symbols is addressed, which extends [Ban and Chang, arXiv:1803.03082] in which $G$ is a free semigroup.
This paper considers the topological degree of $G$-shifts of finite type for the case where $G$ is a nonabelian monoid. Whenever the Cayley graph of $G$ has a finite representation and the relationships among the generators of $G$ are determined by a matrix $A$, the coefficients of the characteristic polynomial of $A$ are revealed as the number of children of the graph. After introducing an algorithm for the computation of the degree, the degree spectrum, which is finite, relates to a collection of matrices in which the sum of each row of every matrix is bounded by the number of children of the graph. Furthermore, the algorithm extends to $G$ of finite free-followers.
We define the epsilon-distortion complexity of a set as the shortest program, running on a universal Turing machine, which produces this set at the precision epsilon in the sense of Hausdorff distance. Then, we estimate the epsilon-distortion complexity of various central Cantor sets on the line generated by iterated function systems (IFSs). In particular, the epsilon-distortion complexity of a C^k Cantor set depends, in general, on k and on its box counting dimension, contrarily to Cantor sets generated by polynomial IFS or random affine Cantor sets.
For a large class of irreducible shift spaces $XsubsettA^{Z^d}$, with $tA$ a finite alphabet, and for absolutely summable potentials $Phi$, we prove that equilibrium measures for $Phi$ are weak Gibbs measures. In particular, for $d=1$, the result holds for irreducible sofic shifts.
We show that there exist real parameters $c$ for which the Julia set $J_c$ of the quadratic map $z^2+c$ has arbitrarily high computational complexity. More precisely, we show that for any given complexity threshold $T(n)$, there exist a real parameter $c$ such that the computational complexity of computing $J_c$ with $n$ bits of precision is higher than $T(n)$. This is the first known class of real parameters with a non poly-time computable Julia set.
In this paper, we provide an effective method to compute the topological entropies of $G$-subshifts of finite type ($G$-SFTs) with $G=F_{d}$ and $S_{d}$, the free group and free semigroup with $d$ generators respectively. We develop the entropy formula by analyzing the corresponding systems of nonlinear recursive equations (SNREs). Four types of SNREs of $S_{2}$-SFTs, namely the types $mathbf{E},mathbf{D},mathbf{C}$ and $mathbf{O}$, are introduced and we could compute their entropies explicitly. This enables us to give the complete characterization of $S_{2}$-SFTs on two symbols. That is, the set of entropies of $S_{2}$-SFTs on two symbols is equal to $mathbf{E}cup mathbf{D}cup mathbf{C}cup mathbf{O}$. The methods developed in $S_{d}$-SFTs will also be applied to the study of the entropy theory of $F_{d}$-SFTs. The entropy formulae of $S_{d}$-, $F_{d}$-golden mean shifts and $k$-colored chessboards are also presented herein.
