A note on dimensional entropy for amenable group actions

Abstract: In this short note, for countably infinite amenable group actions, we provide topological proofs for the following results: Bowen topological entropy (dimensional entropy) of the whole space equals the usual topological entropy along tempered F{\o}lner sequences; the Hausdorff dimension of an amenable subshift (for certain metric associated to some F{\o}lner sequence) equals its topological entropy. This answers questions by Zheng and Chen (Israel Journal of Mathematics 212 (2016), 895-911) and Simpson (Theory Comput. Syst. 56 (2015), 527-543).
