1 Diagonal limits of cubes over a finite alphabet Bogdana Oliynyk National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy, Kyiv, Ukraine Pilsen, July 2, 2018

2 Hamming space Let B = {b 1,..., b q } be an alphabet, q 2. Denote by H n (q) the Hamming space of dimension n on alphabet B. This space consists of all n-tuples (a 1,..., a n ), a i B, 1 i n, where the distance d Hn between two n-tuples is equal to the number of coordinates where they differ. The scaled Hamming space Ĥn(q) have the same set of points, but the distance is defined as 1 n d H n. Bogdana Oliynyk (NaUKMA) Diagonal limits of cubes over a finite alphabet July 2, / 17

3 Divisible sequence A sequence of positive integers τ = (m 1, m 2,...) is called divisible if m i m i+1 for all i N. Denote by (s 1, s 2,...) the sequence of ratios of the sequence τ, i.e. s 1 = m 1, s i+1 = m i+1 m i, i 1. Bogdana Oliynyk (NaUKMA) Diagonal limits of cubes over a finite alphabet July 2, / 17

4 For any i 1 define an isometric embedding ψ si : Ĥm i (q) Ĥm i+1 (q) by the rule: ψ si (x 1,..., x mi ) = (x 1,..., x mi x 1,..., x mi... x 1,..., x }{{ mi ). } s i m i Then the sequence τ determines the directed system of scaled Hamming spaces on the alphabet B Ĥm i (q), ψ si i N with the diagonal embeddings ψ si, i 1. Bogdana Oliynyk (NaUKMA) Diagonal limits of cubes over a finite alphabet July 2, / 17

5 The limit space of the directed system H(τ, q) = lim Ĥm i (q), ψ si is called a diagonal limit of the sequence of spaces Ĥm i, i 1. We call the metric space (H(τ, q)) the τ-periodic Hamming space over the alphabet B. Bogdana Oliynyk (NaUKMA) Diagonal limits of cubes over a finite alphabet July 2, / 17

6 Limit of Hamming spaces In [1] Peter J. Cameron and Sam Tarzi considered H(τ, 2) over alphabet {0, 1}. (A) H(τ, 2) isometric to the space of finite unions of half-open subintervals of the interval [0, 1) with some special rational endpoints; (B) Completions of H(τ, 2) independent of choice of τ; (C) For any τ the space H(τ, 2) is homogeneous. Bogdana Oliynyk (NaUKMA) Diagonal limits of cubes over a finite alphabet July 2, / 17

7 Limit of Hamming spaces In [2] periodic Hamming spaces H(τ, 2) over alphabet {0, 1} were regarded as spaces of clopen subsets of boundaries of spherically homogeneous rooted trees. Bogdana Oliynyk (NaUKMA) Diagonal limits of cubes over a finite alphabet July 2, / 17

8 Questions In [1] P. J. Cameron and S. Tarzi formulated the questions: (A) Is there an other representation of H(τ, q), q > 2? (B) Are completions of diagonal limits Hamming spaces H(τ, q) on alphabet B independent of choice of τ? Bogdana Oliynyk (NaUKMA) Diagonal limits of cubes over a finite alphabet July 2, / 17

9 Rooted tree Let T be an infinite locally finite spherically homogeneous rooted tree with the root v 0, n be some nonnegative integer. A spherically homogeneous rooted tree T is uniquely defined by its spherical index, i.e. by an infinite sequence of positive integers [s 1 ; s 2 ;..., ] such that s i is the number of edges joining a vertex of the (i 1)th level with vertices of the ith level, i 1. If the tree (T, v 0 ) has spherical index [s 1 ; s 2 ;..., ] then the sequence L i = m i, i 1, is divisible. Bogdana Oliynyk (NaUKMA) Diagonal limits of cubes over a finite alphabet July 2, / 17

10 Boundary of tree The boundary T of a tree T is the set of infinite rooted paths. Define a distance ρ on the set T as { 1 k+1 ρ(γ 1, γ 2 ) =, if γ 1 γ 2, 0, if γ 1 = γ 2 where k is the length of the common beginning of rooted paths γ 1 and γ 2. Bogdana Oliynyk (NaUKMA) Diagonal limits of cubes over a finite alphabet July 2, / 17

11 Bernoulli measure Define the Bernoulli measure µ on the Borel σ-algebra of T τ by the rule: µ(c v ) = 1 n v, where n v is the number of vertices of T τ on the level containing the vertex v, C v is cylindrical set corresponding to v (see [3]). Bogdana Oliynyk (NaUKMA) Diagonal limits of cubes over a finite alphabet July 2, / 17

12 Introduce the discrete metric ϱ on the alphabet B, i.e. { 1, if i j ϱ(b i, b j ) = 0, if i = j, for all 1 i, j q. The metric ϱ induces the discrete topology on B. Denote by C( T τ, B) the set of all continuous functions from the space T τ to the space B. Bogdana Oliynyk (NaUKMA) Diagonal limits of cubes over a finite alphabet July 2, / 17

13 Define a metric d µ : C( T τ, B) C( T τ, B) R + by putting d µ (f, g) = µ(σ f Σ g ), where f, g C( T τ, B) and the symmetric difference of Σ f = {f 1 (b i ), 1 i q} and Σ g = {g 1 (b i ), 1 i q} defined by the rule: Σ f Σ g = i j(f 1 (b i ) g 1 (b j )). Bogdana Oliynyk (NaUKMA) Diagonal limits of cubes over a finite alphabet July 2, / 17

14 Theorem [4] The τ-periodic Hamming space H(τ, q) on the alphabet B is isometric to the space of all continuous functions C( T τ, B) with the metric d µ. This theorem is the answer to the question (A). Bogdana Oliynyk (NaUKMA) Diagonal limits of cubes over a finite alphabet July 2, / 17

15 The following statement is the answer to the question (B). Corollary [4] For every infinite strictly increasing divisible sequence τ = (m 1, m 2,...) the completion of the space H(τ, q) is isometric to the completion of the space H(β, q), where β = (2, 4, 8,...).
