There are several known constructions of equilibrium states for
Hölder continuous potentials in the context of both subshifts of
finite type and uniformly hyperbolic systems. In this talk I will
present another method of building such measures, formulated in the
unified and more general setting of Smale spaces. This simultaneously
extends our previous work for hyperbolic attractors (modelled after
Sinai's classical approach for SRB-measures) and gives a new and
original construction of equilibrium states for subshifts of finite
type. This is joint work with Mark Pollicott.
