An endomorphism of $(X,G)$ is a continuous selfmap of $X$ which commutes with the action of $G$. One says that a dynamical system $(X,G)$ is surjunctive provided that every injective endomorphism of $(X,G)$ is surjective (and therefore is a homeomorphism). We show that when $G$ is sofic, every expansive dynamical system $(X,G)$ with nonnegative sofic topological entropy and satisfying the weak specification and the strong topological Markov properties, is surjunctive.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-07-26T09:05:05.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37B40", "37B10", "37D20", "20F65" ], "keywords": [ "strong topological markov property", "sofic groups", "expansive actions", "dynamical system", "surjunctivity" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
