Topological entropy and periodic points for Zd actions on compact abelian groups with the Descending Chain Condition

This thesis deals with the ergodic theory of actions of Zd on compact abelian groups satisfying a regularity condition: the descending chain condition. Using results of Klaus Schmidt, Bruce Kitchens and Doug Lind, we show that the descending chain condition guarantees that the global topological ent...
