Abstract
In this paper the existence of a unique measure of maximal entropy for rational endomorphisms of the Riemann sphere is established. The equidistribution of pre-images and periodic points with respect to this measure is proved.

Statistical mechanics of a one-dimensional lattice gas

TL;DR: In this article, the statistical mechanics of an infinite one-dimensional classical lattice gas were studied and it was shown that for a large class of interactions, such a system has no phase transition and the equilibrium state of the system is represented by a measure which is invariant under the effect of lattice translations.
