The topological entropy of iterated piecewise affine maps is uncomputable [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2001
We show that it is impossible to compute (or even to approximate) the topological entropy of a continuous piecewise affine function in dimension four. The same result holds for saturated linear functions in unbounded dimension.

A Billingsley type theorem for Bowen topological entropy of nonautonomous dynamical systems

open access: yesOpen Mathematics, 2022
This article is devoted to the study of the Bowen topological entropy for nonautonomous dynamical systems, which is an extension of the classical definition of Bowen topological entropy. We show that the Bowen topological entropy can be determined by the

The minimal entropy problem for 3-manifolds with zero simplicial volume [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
In this note, we consider the minimal entropy problem, namely the question of whether there exists a smooth metric of minimal (topological) entropy, for certain classes of closed 3 ...

Topological entropy for impulsive differential equations

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Qualitative Theory of Differential Equations, 2020
A positive topological entropy is examined for impulsive differential equations via the associated Poincaré translation operators on compact subsets of Euclidean spaces and, in particular, on tori.

Entropy of Iterated Function Systems and Their Relations with Black Holes and Bohr-Like Black Holes Entropies

open access: yesEntropy, 2018
In this paper we consider the metric entropies of the maps of an iterated function system deduced from a black hole which are known the Bekenstein–Hawking entropies and its subleading corrections.

Entropy Production and Irreversible Processes -from the perspective of continuous topological evolution.

open access: yesEntropy, 2004
: A concept of entropy production associated with continuous topological evolution is deduced (without statistics) from the fact that Cartan-Hilbert 1-form of Action defines a non-equilibrium symplectic system of Pfaff Topological dimension 2n+2.

Entropy of foliations with leafwise Finsler structure [PDF]

open access: yesOpuscula Mathematica, 2016
We extend the notion of the geometric entropy of foliation to foliated manifolds equipped with leafwise Finsler structure. We study the relation between the geometric entropy and the topological entropy of the holonomy pseudogroup. The case of a foliated

Entropy increase in switching systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The relation between the complexity of a time-switched dynamics and the complexity of its control sequence depends critically on the concept of a non-autonomous pullback attractor.
