Motivated by a result on weak Markov dilations, we define a notion of characteristic function for ergodic and coisometric tuples of contractions with one-dimensional invariant space for the adjoints. This extends a definition given by Popescu. We also discuss dilations of these tuples and the associated Cuntz algebra representations.
