We also construct a conservative, ergodic, measure preserving transformation which is not quasi finite; and consider distribution asymptotics of information showing that e.g. for Boole's transformation, information is asymptotically mod-normal with square root normalization. Lastly we see that certain ergodic, probability preserving transformations with zero entropy have analogous properties and consequently entropy dimension of at most 1/2.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v5", "updated": "2009-01-16T14:17:35.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37A40", "60F05" ], "keywords": [ "infinite transformations", "information", "measure preserving transformation", "quasi finite", "predictability" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2007arXiv0705.2148A" } } }
