If the range is not sofic, then the same result holds when bi-closingness replaces closingness. Properties of open mappings between shift spaces are investigated in detail. In particular, we show that a closing open (or constant-to-one) extension preserves the structure of a sofic shift.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-10-25T17:48:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37B10", "37B15", "37B40" ], "keywords": [ "shift space", "open maps", "bi-closingness replaces closingness", "irreducible sofic shift", "result holds" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 16, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008arXiv0810.4627J" } } }
