Abstract

Let sigma: Sigma(A) -> Sigma(A) be a subshift of finite type, let M-sigma be the set of all sigma-invariant Borel probability measures on Sigma(A), and let f : Sigma(A) -> R be a Holder continuous observable. There exists at least one or-invariant measure A which maximizes integral f d mu. The following question was asked by B. R. Hunt, E. Ott and G. Yuan: how quickly can the maximum of the integrals integral f d mu be approximated by averages along periodic orbits of period less than p? We give an example of a Holder observable f for which this rate of approximation is slower than stretched-exponential in p.
