in this paper we introduce the concept of entropy operator for continuous systems of finite topological entropy. it is shown that it generates the kolmogorov entropy as a special case. if $phi$ is invertible then the entropy operator is bounded with the topological entropy of $phi$ as its norm.

there are dierent ways to code the geodesic flows on surfaces with negative curvature. such code spaces give a useful tool to verify the dynamical properties of geodesic flows. here we consider special subspaces of geodesic flows on hecke surface whose arithmetic codings varies on a set with innite alphabet. then we will compare the topological complexity of them by computing their topologica...

In this paper, we introduce a new entropy-like invariant, named Hausdorff metric entropy, for finitely generated semigroups acting on compact metric spaces from a set-valued view and study its properties. We establish the relation between Hausdorff metric entropy and topological entropy of a semigroup defined by Bis. Some examples with positive or zero Hausdorff metric entropy are given. Moreov...

a 1993 result of j. llibre, and m. misiurewicz, (theorem a [5]), states that if a continuous map f of a graph into itself has an s-horseshoe, then the topological entropy of f is greater than or equal to logs, that is h( f ) ? logs. also a 1980 result of l.s. block, j. guckenheimer, m. misiurewicz and l.s. young (lemma 1.5 [3]) states that if g is an a-graph of f then h(g) ? h( f ). in this pap...

In this thesis we will introduce topological automata and the topological entropy of a topological automaton, which is the topological entropy of the dynamical system contained in the automaton. We will use these notions to define a measure of complexity for formal languages. We assign to every language the topological entropy of the unique minimal topological automaton accepting it. We contrib...

Topological entropy can be an indicator of complicated (chaotic) behavior in dynamical systems. Whether the topological entropy of a dynamical system is positive or not is of primary significance, due to the fact that positive topological entropy implies that one can assert that the system is chaotic. As the concept of topological entropy is concerned, it is hard, as remarked by [8], to get a g...

Topological entropy is one of the most difficult entropies to be used to analyze the DNA sequences, due to the finite sample and high-dimensionality problems. In order to overcome these problems, a generalized topological entropy is introduced. The relationship between the topological entropy and the generalized topological entropy is compared, which shows the topological entropy is a special c...

We develop a systematic approach to the study of independence in topological dynamics with an emphasis on combinatorial methods. One of our principal aims is to combinatorialize the local analysis of topological entropy and related mixing properties. We also reframe our theory of dynamical independence in terms of tensor products and thereby expand its scope to C-dynamics.
