Resumo

Consider the space of sequences of k letters ordered lexicographically. We study the set M (alpha) of all maximal sequences for which the asymptotic proportions alpha of the letters are prescribed, where a sequence is said to be maximal if it is at least as great as all of its tails. The infimum of M (alpha) is called the alpha-infimax sequence, or the alpha-minimax sequence if the infimum is a minimum. We give an algorithm which yields all infimax sequences, and show that the infimax is not a minimax if and only if it is the alpha-infimax for every alpha in a simplex of dimension 1 or greater. These results have applications to the theory of rotation sets of beta-shifts and torus homeomorphisms. (AU)
