Abstract:

We consider a compact set $\Omega$ with a homeomorphism (or more generally a ${{\mathbf {Z}}^\nu }$ action) such that expansiveness and Bowen’s specification condition hold. The entropy is a function on invariant probability measures. The pressure (a concept borrowed from statistical mechanics) is defined as function on $\mathcal {C}(\Omega )$—the real continuous functions on $\Omega$. The entropy and pressure are shown to be dual in a certain sense, and this duality is investigated.
