Item The specification property and chaos in multidimensional shift spaces and general compact metric spaces.(2016-06-28) Hunter, Reeve.; Raines, Brian Edward, 1975-Rufus Bowen introduced the specification property for maps on a compact metric space. In this dissertation, we consider some implications of the specification property for Zᵈ-actions on subshifts of Ʃ^Zᵈ as well as on a general compact metric space. In particular, we show that if σ :X to X is a continuous Zᵈ-action with a weak form of the specification property on a d-dimensional subshift of Ʃ^Zᵈ, then σ exhibits both ω-chaos, introduced by Li, and uniform distributional chaos, introduced by Schweizer and Smítal. The ω-chaos result is further generalized for some broader, directional notions of limit sets and general compact metric spaces with uniform expansion at a fixed point.
