dc.descriptionFor SFTs, any equilibrium measure is Gibbs, as long a $f$ has $d$-summable variation. This is a theorem of Lanford and Ruelle. Conversely, a theorem of Dobru{š}in states that for strongly-irreducible subshifts, shift-invariant Gibbs-measures are equilibrium measures. Here we prove a generalization of the Lanford-Ruelle theorem: for all subshifts, any equilibrium measure for a function with $d$-summable variation is "topologically Gibbs". This is a relaxed notion which coincides with the usual notion of a Gibbs measure for SFTs. In the second part of the paper, we study Gibbs and equilibrium measures for some interesting families of subshifts: $β$-shifts, Dyck-shifts and Kalikow-type shifts (defined below). In all of these cases, a Lanford-Ruelle type theorem holds. For each of these families we provide a specific proof of the result.
