Dynamics of the p -adic Shift and Applications

There is a natural continuous realization of the one-sided Bernoulli shift on the [p] -adic integers as the map that shifts the coefficients of the [p] -adic expansion to the left. We study this map's Mahler power series expansion. We prove strong results on [p] -adic valuations of the coeffici...

description There is a natural continuous realization of the one-sided Bernoulli shift on the [p] -adic integers as the map that shifts the coefficients of the [p] -adic expansion to the left. We study this map's Mahler power series expansion. We prove strong results on [p] -adic valuations of the coefficients in this expansion, and show that certain natural maps (including many polynomials) are in a sense small perturbations of the shift. As a result, these polynomials share the shift map's important dynamical properties. This provides a novel approach to an earlier result of the authors.
