We prove that the period doubling operator has an expanding di rection at the xed point We use the induced operator a Perron Frobenius type operator to study the linearization of the period dou bling operator at its xed point We then use a sequence of linear operators with nite ranks to study this induced operator The proof is constructive One can calculate the expanding direction and the rate ...

An operator—in general nonlinear—associated with a pair of nonnegative matrices, is defined and some of its spectral properties studied. If the pair of matrices are a square matrix A and the identity matrix of the same order, the operator reduces to the linear operator A. The results obtained include generalizations of one of the principal conclusions of the theorem of Perron-Frobenius.

The statistical properties of endomorphisms under the assumption that the associated Perron– Frobenius operator is quasicompact are considered. In particular, the central limit theorem, weak invariance principle and law of the iterated logarithm for sufficiently regular observations are examined. The approach clarifies the role of the usual assumptions of ergodicity, weak mixing, and exactness....

The numerical approximation of Perron–Frobenius operators allows efficient determination of the physical invariant measure of chaotic dynamical systems as a fixed point of the operator. Eigenfunctions of the Perron–Frobenius operator corresponding to large subunit eigenvalues have been shown to describe “almost-invariant” dynamics in one-dimensional expanding maps. We extend these ideas to hype...

A new expansion scheme to evaluate the eigenvalues of the generalized evolution operator (Frobenius-Perron operator) Hq relevant to the fluctuation spectrum and poles of the order-q power spectrum is proposed. The “partition function” is computed in terms of unstable periodic orbits and then used in a finite pole approximation of the continued fraction expansion for the evolution operator. A so...
