Finitary isomorphism of some renewal processes to Bernoulli schemes

AbstractUsing the marker and filler methods of Keane and Smorodinsky, we prove that entropy is a complete finitary isomorphism invariant for r-processes. It is conjectured that entropy is a complete finitary isomorphism invariant for finitary factors of Bernoulli schemes. We present a weaker version of this conjecture with hope that its proof is more attainable with present methods. In doing so, we define a one-way finitary isomorphism and prove one-way finitary results for random walks. We will also extend the marker and filler methods of Keane and Smorodinsky to a class of countable state processes
