Abstract
Recently the notions of entropy dimension for topological and measurable dynamical systems were introduced in order to study the complexity of zero entropy systems. We exhibit a class of strictly ergodic models whose topological entropy dimensions range from zero to one and whose measure-theoretic entropy dimensions are identically zero. Hence entropy dimension does not obey the variational principle.
