Abstract

We study the Radon–Nikodym problem for approximately proper equivalence relations and more specifically the uniqueness of certain Gibbs states. One of our tools is a variant of the dimension group introduced in the study of approximately finite-dimensional (AF) algebras. As applications, we retrieve sufficient conditions for the uniqueness of traces on AF algebras and parts of the Perron–Frobenius–Ruelle theorem.
