Development of concept of topological entropy for systems with multiple time

We study the topological entropy for dynamical systems with discrete or continuous multiple time. Due to the generalization of a well-known one time-dimensional result we show that the definition of topological entropy, using the approach for subshifts, leads to the zero entropy for many systems different from subshift. We define a new type of relative topological entropy to avoid this phenomenon. The generalization of Bowen’s power rule allows us to define topological and relative topological entropies for systems with continuous multiple time. As an application, we find a relation between the relative topological entropy and controllability of linear systems with continuous multiple time.     

Entropy Computation on the Unit Disc of a Meromorphic Map

We propose a new definition of entropy based on both topological and metric entropy for the meromorphic maps. The entropy is then computed on the unit disc of a meromorphic map, which is called the extended Blaschke function, and is a nonlinear extension of the normalized Lorentz transformation. We nd that the de ned entropy is computable and observe several interested results, such as maximal entropy, entropy overshoot due to topological transition, entropy reduction to zero, and scaling invariance in conjunction with parameter space.     

Computing topological entropy for periodic sequences of unimodal maps

In this paper we introduce an algorithm which allows us to compute the topological entropy of a class of piecewise monotone continuous interval maps. The algorithm can be applied to a class of economic models called duopolies, and it can be useful to compute the topological entropy of periodic sequences of continuous maps which have been used in some population growth models.     

Omega limit sets and distributional chaos on graphs

We give a full topological characterization of omega limit sets of continuous maps on graphs and we show that basic sets have similar properties as in the case of the compact interval. We also prove that the presence of distributional chaos, the existence of basic sets, and positive topological entropy (among other properties) are mutually equivalent for continuous graph maps.     

Omega-limit sets and invariant chaos in dimension one

Omega-limit sets play an important role in one-dimensional dynamics. During last fifty year at least three definitions of basic set has appeared. Authors often use results with different definition. Here we fill in the gap of missing proof of equivalency of these definitions. Using results on basic sets we generalize results in paper [P. Oprocha, Invariant scrambled sets and distributional chaos, Dyn. Syst. 24 (2009), no. 1, 31–43.] to the case continuous maps of finite graphs. The Li-Yorke chaos is weaker than positive topological entropy. The equivalency arises when we add condition of invariance to Li-Yorke scrambled set. In this note we show that for a continuous graph map properties positive topological entropy; horseshoe; invariant Li-Yorke scrambled set; uniform invariant distributional chaotic scrambled set and distributionaly chaotic pair are mutually equivalent.

A note on the periodic orbits and topological entropy of graph maps

This paper deals with the relationship between the periodic orbits of continuous maps on graphs and the topological entropy of the map. We show that the topological entropy of a graph map can be approximated by the entropy of its periodic orbits.

     

Topological entropy of continuous functions on topological spaces

Adler, Konheim and McAndrew introduced the concept of topological entropy of a continuous mapping for compact dynamical systems. Bowen generalized the concept to non-compact metric spaces, but Walters indicated that Bowen’s entropy is metric-dependent. We propose a new definition of topological entropy for continuous mappings on arbitrary topological spaces (compactness, metrizability, even axioms of separation not necessarily required), investigate fundamental properties of the new entropy, and compare the new entropy with the existing ones. The defined entropy generates that of Adler, Konheim and McAndrew and is metric-independent for metrizable spaces. Yet, it holds various basic properties of Adler, Konheim and McAndrew’s entropy, e.g., the entropy of a subsystem is bounded by that of the original system, topologically conjugated systems have a same entropy, the entropy of the induced hyperspace system is larger than or equal to that of the original system, and in particular this new entropy coincides with Adler, Konheim and McAndrew’s entropy for compact systems.     

Algebraic and topological entropy on lie groups

This paper starts with some examples and quick results on the topological entropy of continuous functions. It discusses the topological entropy on Lie groups and proves their shift properties. It proves Fried's conjecture h(φγ) <- h(φ)+h(γ) for affine maps on Lie groups. Moreover, φ and γ do not have to commute. As a corollary, it proves that entropy is invariant with isometric endomorphisms of Lie groups. Also, it discusses algebraic entropy on elementary Abelian groups and Lie groups. It proves that the topological entropy is preserved when projected from Lie group lib to its quotient space compact Lie group ^S1 for continuous functions lifted from the quotient space and shows that algebraic entropy in general is strictly less than topological entropy.     

Computing the topological entropy of continuous maps with at most three different kneading sequences with applications to Parrondo’s paradox

We introduce an algorithm to compute the topological entropy of piecewise monotone maps with at most three different kneading sequences, with prescribed accuracy. As an application, we compute the topological entropy of 3-periodic sequences of logistic maps, disproving a commutativity formula for topological entropy with three maps, and analyzing the dynamics Parrondo’s paradox in this setting.     

逆极限的不变测度和一致正熵性质

In this paper, the interconnection of some ergodic properties between a continuous selfmap and its inverse limit is studied. It has been proved that (1) their invariant Borel probability measures are identical up to homeomorphism and (2) they preserve uniform positive entropy property simuitaneously. As applications, it is also proved that the upper semi-continu-ous properties of their entropy maps are restricted each other, and the entropy map of the asymptotically h-expansive continuous map is upper semi-contlnuous, at the same time a continuous map having u, p.e. is topological weakmixing.     

The Baire Class of Topological Entropy of Non–Autonomous Dynamical Systems

On the topological entropy of the free semigroup action generated by proper maps

In this paper, we introduce the topological entropy of a free semigroup action generated by proper maps, which extends the notions of the topological entropy of the free semigroup actions defined by Bufetov in 1999 and topological entropy of the proper maps defined by Patrão in 2010. We then give some properties of these notions and discuss the relations between them. We also give a partial variational principle for locally compact separable metric spaces. Moreover, the relationship between topological entropy of the free semigroup generated by proper maps and topological entropy of a skew-product transformation is given. These results extend the results obtained by Patrão, Bufetov and Lin, Ma and Wang in 2018.     

Entropy and periodic points for transitive maps

The aim of this paper is to investigate the connection between transitivity, density of the set of periodic points and topological entropy for low dimensional continuous maps. The paper deals with this problem in the case of the -star and the circle among the one-dimensional spaces and in some higher dimensional spaces. Particular attention is paid to triangular maps and to extensions of transitive maps to higher dimensions without increasing topological entropy.

     

Topological entropy of maps on regular curves

In [G.T. Seidler, The topological entropy of homeomorphisms on one-dimensional continua, Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 108 (1990) 1025-1030], G.T. Seidler proved that the topological entropy of every homeomorphism on a regular curve is zero. Also, in [H. Kato, Topological entropy of monotone maps and confluent maps on regular curves, Topology Proc. 28 (2) (2004) 587-593] the topological entropy of confluent maps on regular curves was investigated. In particular, it was proved that the topological entropy of every monotone map on any regular curve is zero. In this paper, furthermore we investigate the topological entropy of more general maps on regular curves. We evaluate the topological entropy of maps f on regular curves X in terms of the growth of the number of components of f−n(y) (y∈X).

Topological Entropy and Secondary Folding

A convenient measure of a map or flow’s chaotic action is the topological entropy. In many cases, the entropy has a homological origin: it is forced by the topology of the space. For example, in simple toral maps, the topological entropy is exactly equal to the growth induced by the map on the fundamental group of the torus. However, in many situations the numerically computed topological entropy is greater than the bound implied by this action. We associate this gap between the bound and the true entropy with ‘secondary folding’: material lines undergo folding which is not homologically forced. We examine this phenomenon both for physical rod stirring devices and toral linked twist maps, and show rigorously that for the latter secondary folds occur.     

TOPOLOGICAL ENTROPY AND IRREGULAR RECURRENCE

This paper is devoted to problems stated by Z. Zhou and F. Li in 2009. They concern relations between almost periodic, weakly almost periodic, and quasi-weakly almost periodic points of a continuous map $f$ and its topological entropy. The negative answer follows by our recent paper. But for continuous maps of the interval and other more general one-dimensional spaces we give more results; in some cases the answer is positive.
