According to the Lindenstrauss-Tsukamoto Conjecture sufficient
conditions for a topological dynamical system (X,T)
to be embeddable in the d-cubical shift
(([0,1]d)Z,shift)
are that both the mean dimension and the periodic dimension of the
system are strictly less than d/2. It is not hard to see that the
conjecture is sharp. Recently the conjecture has been verified for the
class of finite-dimensional systems (by the speaker) and for the class of
extensions of aperiodic subshifts (joint work with Tsukamoto). In the talk
I will present a proof for a class of systems admitting a
finite-dimensional non-wandering set. This is the first non-trivial
example of a class of systems both infinite-dimensional and non-aperiodic
which is found to be embeddable in cubical shifts. The proof uses
a concept of local markers which will be explained during the talk.
