Shift-coupling

Shift-coupling means pasting together the paths of two processes modulo a random shift. This concept can be related to the invariant [sigma]-field in a similar way as ordinary coupling is related to the tail [sigma]-field. We give an expository account of this relationship, implicit in work of Berbee and Greven. In developing these relations we introduce the concept of coupling with respect to a sub-[sigma]-field.
