Abstract

Consider a topologically transitive countable Markov shift ? and a summable locally constant potential ? with finite Gurevich pressure and Var1(?) < ?. We prove the existence of the limit limt? ? ?t in the weak? topology, where ?t is the unique equilibrium state associated to the potential t?. In addition, we present examples where the limit at zero temperature exists for potentials satisfying more general conditions. © The Author(s), 2022. Published by Cambridge University Press.
