In this note we show that the periodic points of an expansive Z^d action on a compact abelian group are uniformly distributed with respect to Haar measure if the action has completely positive entropy. In the general expansive case, we show that any... Read More about Periodic points for expansive actions of Z^d on compact abelian groups.

Automorphisms of solenoids and p-adic entropy (1988)
Journal Article

We show that a full solenoid is locally the product of a euclidean component and p-adic components for each rational prime p. An automorphism of a solenoid preserves these components, and its topological entropy is shown to be the sum of the euclidea... Read More about Automorphisms of solenoids and p-adic entropy.
