We consider a family of isometric extensions of the full shift on p symbols (for p a prime) parametrised by a probability space. Using Heath-Brown's work on the Artin conjecture, it is shown that for all but two primes p the set of limit points of th...

Heights of Polynomials and Entropy in Algebraic Dynamics (1999)
Book
Everest, G., & Ward, T. (1999). Heights of Polynomials and Entropy in Algebraic Dynamics. Springer Verlag

The main theme of the book is the theory of heights as they appear in various guises. This includes a large body of results on Mahler's measure of the height of a polynomial of which topic there is no book available. The genesis of the measure in a p...
