Summary: | Building on previous work by the author and Robin Deeley, we give a thorough presentation of the techniques developed for synchronizing dynamical systems in the special case of synchronizing shift spaces. Following work of Thomsen, we give a construction of the homoclinic and heteroclinic \(C^\ast\)-algebras of a shift space in terms of Bratteli diagrams. Lastly we present several specific examples which demonstrate these techniques. For the even shift we give a complete computation of all the associated invariants. We also present an example of a strictly non-sofic synchronizing shift. In particular we discuss the rank of the \(K\)-theory of the homoclinic algebra of a shift space and its implications. We also give a construction for producing from any minimal shift a synchronizing shift whose set of non-synchronizing points is exactly the original minimal shift. |
