Description: |
Obtains necessary and sufficient conditions for several types of codings of Markov chains onto Bernoulli shifts. This title proceeds by replacing the defining stochastic matrix of Markov chain by a matrix whose entries are polynomials with positive coefficients in several variables. It contains the shorter paper on $p^n$ and its coefficients. |
Synopsis: |
The two parts of this Memoir contain two separate but related papers. The longer paper in Part A obtains necessary and sufficient conditions for several types of codings of Markov chains onto Bernoulli shifts. It proceeds by replacing the defining stochastic matrix of each Markov chain by a matrix whose entries are polynomials with positive coefficients in several variables; a Bernoulli shift is represented by a single polynomial with positive coefficients, $p$. This transforms jointly topological and measure-theoretic coding problems into combinatorial ones. In solving the combinatorial problems in Part A, we state and make use of facts from Part B concerning $p^n$ and its coefficients. Part B contains the shorter paper on $p^n$ and its coefficients, and is independent of Part A.
