Phase transition on Exel crossed products assocaited to dilation   matrices
  An integer matrix $A\in M_d(\Z)$ induces a covering $\sigma_A$ of $\T^d$ and an endomorphism $\alpha_A:f\mapsto f\circ \sigma_A$ of $C(\T^d)$ for which there is a natural transfer operator $L$. In this paper, we compute the KMS states on the Exel crossed product $C(\T^d)\rtimes_{\alpha_A,L}\N$ and its Toeplitz extension. We find that $C(\T^d)\rtimes_{\alpha_A,L}\N$ has a unique KMS state, which has inverse temperature $\beta=\log|\det A|$. Its Toeplitz extension, on the other hand, exhibits a phase transition at $\beta=\log|\det A|$, and for larger $\beta$ the simplex of KMS$_\beta$ states is isomorphic to the simplex of probability measures on $\T^d$.
