Let (S,s) be a Z^d-subshift of finite type. Under a strong irreducibility condition (strong specification), we show that Aut(S) contains any finite group. For Z^d-subshifts of finite type without strong specification, examples show that topological m... Read More about Automorphisms of Z^d-subshifts of finite type.

The Bernoulli property for expansive Z^2 actions on compact groups (1992)

We show that an expansive Z^2 action on a compact abelian group is measurably isomorphic to a two-dimensional Bernoulli shift if and only if it has completely positive entropy. The proof uses the algebraic structure of such actions described by Kitch... Read More about The Bernoulli property for expansive Z^2 actions on compact groups.
