First, we set a suitable notation. Points in {0, 1} Z−{0} = {0, 1} N × {0, 1} N = Ω − × Ω + , are denoted by (y|x) = (..., y 2 , y 1 |x 1 , x 2 , ...), where (x 1 , x 2 , ...) ∈ {0, 1} N , and (y 1 , y 2 , ...) ∈ {0, 1} N . The bijective map σ(..., y 2 , y 1 |x 1 , x 2 , ...) = (..., y 2 , y 1 , x 1 |x 2 , ...) is called the bilateral shift and acts on {0, 1} Z−{0} . Given A : {0, 1} N = Ω + → R we express A in the variable x, like A(x). In a similar way, given B : {0, 1} N = Ω − → R we express B in the variable y, like B(y). Finally, given W : Ω − × Ω + → R, we express W in the variable (y|x), like W (y|x). By abuse of notation we write A(y|x) = A(x) and B(y|x) = B(y). The probability µ A denotes the equilibrium probability for A : {0, 1} N → R.Given a continuous potential A : Ω + → R, we say that the continuous potential A * : Ω − → R is the dual potential of A, if there exists a continuous W : Ω − × Ω + → R, such that, for all (y|x) ∈ {0,We say that W is an involution kernel for A. The function W allows you to define an spectral projection in the linear space of the main eigenfunction of the Ruelle operator for A. Denote by θ : Ω − × Ω + → Ω − × Ω + the function θ(..., y 2 , y 1 |x 1 , x 2 , ...) = (..., x 2 , x 1 |y 1 , y 2 , ...). We say that A is symmetric if A * (θ(x|y)) = A(y|x) = A(x). To say that A is symmetric is equivalent to saying that µ A has zero entropy production. Given A, we describe explicit expressions for W and the dual potential A * , for A in a family of functions introduced by P. Walters. We present conditions for A to be symmetric and to be of twist type.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
