Abstract | A notion of entropy is defined for the
non-singular action of finite co-ordinate
changes on X - the infinite product of two-
point spaces. This quantity - average
co-ordinate or AC entropy - is calculated
for product measures and G-measures on X,
and an equivalence relation is established
for which AC entropy is an invariant. The
Inverse Vitali Lemma is discussed in a
measure preserving context, and it is shown
that for a certain class of measures on
X known as odometer bounded, the result
will still hold for odometer actions.
The foundations for a non-singular version
of Rudolph's restricted orbit equivalence
are established, and a size for non-singular
orbit equivalence is introduced. It is shown
that provided the Inverse Vitali Lemma
still holds, the non-singular orbit equivalence
classes can be described using this new size. |
