Book Topological Entropy and Equivalence of Dynamical Systems

Download or read book Topological Entropy and Equivalence of Dynamical Systems written by Roy L. Adler and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1979 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this work is to prove a theorem for topological entropy analogous to Ornstein's result for measure entropy. For this a natural class of dynamical systems is needed to play the same role for topological entropy as the Bernoulli shifts do for measure entropy. Fortunately there is just such a class--the topological Markov shifts. The main result of this paper is that topological entropy along with another number, called the ergodic period, is a complete set of invariants under this new equivalence relation for the class of topological Markov shifts.

Book Combinatorial Dynamics And Entropy In Dimension One

Download or read book Combinatorial Dynamics And Entropy In Dimension One written by Alseda Luis and published by World Scientific Publishing Company. This book was released on 1993-06-04 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In last thirty years an explosion of interest in the study of nonlinear dynamical systems occured. The theory of one-dimensional dynamical systems has grown out in many directions. One of them has its roots in the Sharkovski0 Theorem. This beautiful theorem describes the possible sets of periods of all cycles of maps of an interval into itself. Another direction has its main objective in measuring the complexity of a system, or the amount of chaos present in it. A good way of doing this is to compute topological entropy of the system. The aim of this book is to provide graduate students and researchers with a unified and detailed exposition of these developments for interval and circle maps. Many comments are added referring to related problems, and historical remarks are made. Request Inspection Copy

Book Invariance Entropy for Deterministic Control Systems

Download or read book Invariance Entropy for Deterministic Control Systems written by Christoph Kawan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-10-02 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph provides an introduction to the concept of invariance entropy, the central motivation of which lies in the need to deal with communication constraints in networked control systems. For the simplest possible network topology, consisting of one controller and one dynamical system connected by a digital channel, invariance entropy provides a measure for the smallest data rate above which it is possible to render a given subset of the state space invariant by means of a symbolic coder-controller pair. This concept is essentially equivalent to the notion of topological feedback entropy introduced by Nair, Evans, Mareels and Moran (Topological feedback entropy and nonlinear stabilization. IEEE Trans. Automat. Control 49 (2004), 1585–1597). The book presents the foundations of a theory which aims at finding expressions for invariance entropy in terms of dynamical quantities such as Lyapunov exponents. While both discrete-time and continuous-time systems are treated, the emphasis lies on systems given by differential equations.

Book Mathematics of Complexity and Dynamical Systems

Download or read book Mathematics of Complexity and Dynamical Systems written by Robert A. Meyers and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-10-05 with total page 1885 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mathematics of Complexity and Dynamical Systems is an authoritative reference to the basic tools and concepts of complexity, systems theory, and dynamical systems from the perspective of pure and applied mathematics. Complex systems are systems that comprise many interacting parts with the ability to generate a new quality of collective behavior through self-organization, e.g. the spontaneous formation of temporal, spatial or functional structures. These systems are often characterized by extreme sensitivity to initial conditions as well as emergent behavior that are not readily predictable or even completely deterministic. The more than 100 entries in this wide-ranging, single source work provide a comprehensive explication of the theory and applications of mathematical complexity, covering ergodic theory, fractals and multifractals, dynamical systems, perturbation theory, solitons, systems and control theory, and related topics. Mathematics of Complexity and Dynamical Systems is an essential reference for all those interested in mathematical complexity, from undergraduate and graduate students up through professional researchers.

Book Entropy in Dynamical Systems

Download or read book Entropy in Dynamical Systems written by Tomasz Downarowicz and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-05-12 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive text on entropy covers three major types of dynamics: measure preserving transformations; continuous maps on compact spaces; and operators on function spaces. Part I contains proofs of the Shannon–McMillan–Breiman Theorem, the Ornstein–Weiss Return Time Theorem, the Krieger Generator Theorem and, among the newest developments, the ergodic law of series. In Part II, after an expanded exposition of classical topological entropy, the book addresses symbolic extension entropy. It offers deep insight into the theory of entropy structure and explains the role of zero-dimensional dynamics as a bridge between measurable and topological dynamics. Part III explains how both measure-theoretic and topological entropy can be extended to operators on relevant function spaces. Intuitive explanations, examples, exercises and open problems make this an ideal text for a graduate course on entropy theory. More experienced researchers can also find inspiration for further research.

Download or read book Symbolic Dynamics written by Bruce P. Kitchens and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly one hundred years ago Jacques Hadamard used infinite sequences of symbols to analyze the distribution of geodesics on certain surfaces. That was the beginning of symbolic dynamics. In the 1930's and 40's Arnold Hedlund and Marston Morse again used infinite sequences to investigate geodesics on surfaces of negative curvature. They coined the term symbolic dynamics and began to study sequence spaces with the shift transformation as dynamical systems. In the 1940's Claude Shannon used sequence spaces to describe infor mation channels. Since that time symbolic dynamics has been used in ergodic theory, topological dynamics, hyperbolic dynamics, information theory and complex dynamics. Symbolic dynamical systems with a finite memory are stud ied in this book. They are the topological Markov shifts. Each can be defined by transition rules and the rules can be summarized by a transition matrix. The study naturally divides into two parts. The first part is about topological Markov shifts where the alphabet is finite. The second part is concerned with topological Markov shifts whose alphabet is count ably infinite. The techniques used in the two cases are quite different. When the alphabet is finite most of the methods are combinatorial or algebraic. When the alphabet is infinite the methods are much more analytic. This book grew from notes for a graduate course taught at Wesleyan Uni versity in the fall of 1994 and is intended as a graduate text and as a reference book for mathematicians working in related fields.

Book The Topology of Chaos

  • Pages : 518 pages

Download or read book The Topology of Chaos written by Robert Gilmore and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-09-26 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new approach to understanding nonlinear dynamics and strange attractors The behavior of a physical system may appear irregular or chaotic even when it is completely deterministic and predictable for short periods of time into the future. How does one model the dynamics of a system operating in a chaotic regime? Older tools such as estimates of the spectrum of Lyapunov exponents and estimates of the spectrum of fractal dimensions do not sufficiently answer this question. In a significant evolution of the field of Nonlinear Dynamics, The Topology of Chaos responds to the fundamental challenge of chaotic systems by introducing a new analysis method-Topological Analysis-which can be used to extract, from chaotic data, the topological signatures that determine the stretching and squeezing mechanisms which act on flows in phase space and are responsible for generating chaotic data. Beginning with an example of a laser that has been operated under conditions in which it behaved chaotically, the authors convey the methodology of Topological Analysis through detailed chapters on: * Discrete Dynamical Systems: Maps * Continuous Dynamical Systems: Flows * Topological Invariants * Branched Manifolds * The Topological Analysis Program * Fold Mechanisms * Tearing Mechanisms * Unfoldings * Symmetry * Flows in Higher Dimensions * A Program for Dynamical Systems Theory Suitable at the present time for analyzing "strange attractors" that can be embedded in three-dimensional spaces, this groundbreaking approach offers researchers and practitioners in the discipline a complete and satisfying resolution to the fundamental questions of chaotic systems.

Book Local Entropy Theory of a Random Dynamical System

Download or read book Local Entropy Theory of a Random Dynamical System written by Anthony H. Dooley and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2014-12-20 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper the authors extend the notion of a continuous bundle random dynamical system to the setting where the action of R or N is replaced by the action of an infinite countable discrete amenable group. Given such a system, and a monotone sub-additive invariant family of random continuous functions, they introduce the concept of local fiber topological pressure and establish an associated variational principle, relating it to measure-theoretic entropy. They also discuss some variants of this variational principle. The authors introduce both topological and measure-theoretic entropy tuples for continuous bundle random dynamical systems, and apply variational principles to obtain a relationship between these of entropy tuples. Finally, they give applications of these results to general topological dynamical systems, recovering and extending many recent results in local entropy theory.

Book Qualitative Dynamics and Chaos

Download or read book Qualitative Dynamics and Chaos written by Arnaldo Rodriguez-Gonzalez and published by Arnaldo Rodriguez-Gonzalez. This book was released on 2023-10-27 with total page 493 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This largely self-contained textbook on qualitative dynamics and chaos is intended for a broad audience of readers who are interested in describing systems that change over time using a mathematically simple, but conceptually rigorous, framework centered around descriptive sequences of symbols. This framework also allows readers who may not have a large amount of mathematical training to develop an unambiguous understanding of the notion of chaos and related aspects of dynamical systems theory. Concepts and techniques are introduced in the first parts of the book, which are later expanded to more mathematically abstract ideas in the latter parts of the book. For those who are already have some mathematical training, this text is intended to be an alternative to standard symbolic dynamics textbooks which both mildly generalizes their scope and specifically centers its discussion around dynamical systems theory aspects. It uses the notion of a "falsifiable system"—a type of set of infinite symbol sequences, which is an extension of both formal languages and symbolic dynamical systems—as a central conceptual link between the theory of formal languages and the study of chaos, and allows readers a method to identify chaos within such systems (and systems equivalent to them) by entirely graphical methods. The latter parts of the book then focus on how to apply these methods to understand the dynamics of more traditional, numerically-based systems.
