Abstract

We study the asymptotic behaviour of the orbit-counting function and a dynamical Mertens' theorem for the full G-shift for a finitely-generated torsion-free nilpotent group G. Using bounds for the M{\"o}bius function on the lattice of subgroups of finite index and known subgroup growth estimates, we find a single asymptotic of the shape
