If an invertible probability measure-preserving system has a finite one-sided generator ξ, then its future sigma-algebra F1​=T−1B equals B modulo null sets. Hence Hμ​(ξ∣F1​)=0, and the infinite-future formula for partition entropy rate and Kolmogorov-Sinai generator theorem give hμ​(T)=0. Invertibility matters: a fair binary one-sided Bernoulli shift has entropy log2 and a finite one-sided generator.
