Abstract:
While there is, up to homeomorphism, only one Cantor space, i.e. one zero-dimensional, perfect, compact, nonempty metric space, there are many measures on Cantor space which are not topologically equivalent. The clopen values set for a full, nonatomic measure is the countable dense subset is clopen of the unit interval. It is a topological invariant for the measure. For the class of good measures it is a complete invariant. A full, nonatomic measure is good if whenever are clopen sets with , there exists a clopen subset of such that . These measures have interesting dynamical properties. They are exactly the measures which arise from uniquely ergodic minimal systems on Cantor space. For some of them there is a unique generic measure-preserving homeomorphism. That is, within the Polish group of such homeomorphisms there is a dense, conjugacy class.
