AbstractNecessary and sufficient conditions for a Lorenz map to be topologically conjugate to a piecewise linear map with constant slope (a β-transformation) are given, first in terms of kneading invariants of the maps and then in terms of the topological entropy restricted to basic sets. The dynamics of β-transformations is also described.

We generalize to tree maps the theorems of Parry and Milnor–Thurston about the semi-conjugacy of a continuous piecewise monotone map f to a continuous piecewise linear map with constant slope, equal to the exponential of the entropy of f.

AbstractWe compare a piecewise linear map with constant slope $\beta \gt 1$ and a piecewise linear map with constant slope $-\beta $. These maps are called the positive and negative $\beta $-transformations. We show that for a certain set of $\beta $s, the multinacci numbers, there exists a measurable isomorphism between these two maps. We further show that for all other values of $\beta $between 1 and 2 the two maps cannot be isomorphic.

Let f be a piecewise monotone interval map with positive topological entropy h(f)= log (s). Milnor and Thurston showed that f is topological semiconjugated to a piecewise linear map having slope s. Here we prove that these semiconjugacies are the eigenvectors of a certain linear endomorphism associated to f. Using this characterization, we prove a conjecture presented by those authors.

AbstractNecessary and sufficient conditions for the symbolic dynamics of a given Lorenz map to be fully embedded in the symbolic dynamics of a piecewise continuous interval map are given. As an application of this embedding result, we describe a new algorithm for calculating the topological entropy of a Lorenz map.

AbstractIommi and Kiwi (J Stat Phys 135:535–546, 2009) showed that the Lyapunov spectrum of an expanding map need not be concave, and posed various problems concerning the possible number of inflection points. In this paper we answer a conjecture in Iommi and Kiwi (2009) by proving that the Lyapunov spectrum of a two branch piecewise linear map has at most two points of inflection. We then answer a question in Iommi and Kiwi (2009) by proving that there exist finite branch piecewise linear maps whose Lyapunov spectra have arbitrarily many points of inflection. This approach is used to exhibit a countable branch piecewise linear map whose Lyapunov spectrum has infinitely many points of inflection.

Let $G$ be a topological group, let $\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}$ be a continuous endomorphism of $G$ and let $H$ be a closed $\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}$-invariant subgroup of $G$. We study whether the topological entropy is an additive invariant, that is, $$\begin{eqnarray}h_{\text{top}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D719})=h_{\text{top}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}\restriction _{H})+h_{\text{top}}(\bar{\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}}),\end{eqnarray}$$ where $\bar{\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}}:G/H\rightarrow G/H$ is the map induced by $\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}$. We concentrate on the case when $G$ is totally disconnected locally compact and $H$ is either compact or normal. Under these hypotheses, we show that the above additivity property holds true whenever $\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}H=H$ and $\ker (\unicode[STIX]{x1D719})\leq H$. As an application, we give a dynamical interpretation of the scale $s(\unicode[STIX]{x1D719})$ by showing that $\log s(\unicode[STIX]{x1D719})$ is the topological entropy of a suitable map induced by $\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}$. Finally, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the equality $\log s(\unicode[STIX]{x1D719})=h_{\text{top}}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D719})$ to hold.

In this paper, we prove the existence of a chaotic saddle for a piecewise-linear map of the plane, referred to as the Lozi map. We study the Lozi map in its orientation and area preserving version. First, we consider the autonomous version of the Lozi map to which we apply the Conley–Moser conditions to obtain the proof of a chaotic saddle. Then we generalize the Lozi map on a nonautonomous version and we prove that the first and the third Conley–Moser conditions are satisfied, which imply the existence of a chaotic saddle. Finally, we numerically demonstrate how the structure of this nonautonomous chaotic saddle varies as parameters are varied.

In the present paper, we introduce and analyze a mechanical system, in which the digital implementation of a linear control loop may lead to chaotic behavior. The amplitude of such oscillations is usually very small, this is why these are called micro-chaotic vibrations. As a consequence of the digital effects, i.e. the sampling, the processing delay and the round-off error, the behavior of the system can be described by a piecewise linear map, the micro-chaos map. We examine a 2D version of the micro-chaos map and prove that the map is chaotic.

The paper describes the dynamics of a piecewise linear area preserving map of the plane, F: (x, y) → (1 - y - |x|, x), as well as that portion of the dynamics that persists when the map is approximated by the real analytic map Fε: (x, y) → (1 - y - fε(x), x), where fε(x) is real analytic and close to |x| for small values of ε. Our goal in this paper is to describe in detail the island structure and the chaotic behavior of the piecewise linear map F. Then we will show that these islands do indeed persist and contain infinitely many invariant curves for Fε, provided that ε is small.
