Topological entropy for countable Markov shifts and Exel--Laca algebras

We show that the (Gurevich) topological entropy for the countable Markov shift associated with an infinite transition matrix $A$ coincides with the non-commutative topological entropy for the Exel--Laca algebra associated with $A$, under certain conditions on $A$. An important example satisfying the conditions is the renewal shift, which is not locally finite. We also pose interesting questions for future research on non-commutative topological entropy for non-locally finite transition matrices.
