Abstract

Those stationary stochastic processes measurably isomorphic to an independent process have been characterized by Ornstein and Weiss (6), (7), (8), as those satisfying a condition called “very weak Bernoulli”. A measure preserving transformation is often also continuous with respect to some natural topology. The topology which will most interest us here is that, on a countable state stochastic process, generated by the cylinder sets, i.e., if the outputs of the system are the symbols R1, R2, ..., we can view the underlying probability space as {R1, ...}z with its product topology.
