Abstract

Given an irreducible subshift of finite type X, a subshift Y, a factor map \pi:X\to Y, and an ergodic invariant measure \nu on Y, there can exist more than one ergodic measure on X which projects to \nu and has maximal entropy among all measures in the fiber. However, there is an explicit bound on the number of such maximal entropy preimages.
