Core dimension group constraints for factors of sofic shifts
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 19 September 2008
Abstract
We give constraints on the existence of factor maps between sofic shifts. These constraints yield examples of sofic shifts of entropy log n which do not factor onto the full n-shift. We also show that any prime which divides the degree of an endomorphism of a sofic shift must divide the non-leading coefficients of the characteristic polynomial of the core matrix of the shift.
