How big is the set of equilibrium states of a function $g$ in the set of invariant measures?

Definition of Gibbs measures for homeomorphisms? Relation to equilibrium states?

In Parry's `Conjugate to linear' paper, what are the properties of the constructed measure? Does this work for equilibrium states too?

If $\mu $ is an equilibrium state for some continuous $g$ on $\Sigma _N^+$, is $h_\mu >0$?

Continuous systems in statistical mechanics. Is there a topological dynamics formulation?

Homogenous dynamics

  1. Implications among
    • unique ergodicity
    • minimality
    • entropy zero plus ergodicity
  2. Simple or semi-simple case
    • Which one-parameter subgroups are unstable/stable foliations for some ergodic affine?
    • Try a).
  3. Relate dynamical properties to representations of the group.
  4. K-property implies Bernoull?
  5. Weak mixing plus center s.s. implies Bernoulli? [For parts d and e, try nilmanifolds first]
  6. Ergodic implies there is a unique measure of maximal entropy?
