Markov random fields, Gibbs states and entropy minimality
The well-known Hammersley-Clifford Theorem states (under certain conditions) that any Markov random field is a Gibbs state for a nearest neighbour interaction. Following Petersen and Schmidt we utilise the formalism of cocycles for the homoclinic relation and introduce "Markov cocycles", r...
