Abstract
The mixing properties of shift-automorphisms of an infinite tensor product of matrix algebras with a shift invariant (but, in general, non-product) state are studied. It is shown that if the centralizer of the von Neumann algebra is a type II1 factor, then the mixing properties of the shift automorphism correspond to the mixing properties of the underlying measure space shift.
Work finished during a visit at the Institut für Theoretische Physik der Universität Wien.
