Algebraic Entropy

چکیده
For any discrete time dynamical system with a rational evolution, we define an entropy, which is a global index of complexity for the evolution map. We analyze its basic properties and its relations to the singularities and the irreversibility of the map. We indicate how it can be exactly calculated.

The concept of logic entropy on D-posets
In this paper, a new invariant called {it logic entropy} for dynamical systems on a D-poset is introduced. Also, the {it conditional logical entropy} is defined and then some of its properties are studied. The invariance of the {it logic entropy} of a system under isomorphism is proved. At the end, the notion of an $ m $-generator of a dynamical system is introduced and a version of the Kolm...
متن کاملMonomial Maps and Algebraic Entropy
In this note, we study some of the simplest algebraic self-maps of projective spaces. These maps, which we call monomial maps, are in one-to-one correspondence with nonsingular integer matrices, and are closely related to toral endomorphisms. In Theorem 1 we give a lower bound for the topological entropy of monomial maps and in Theorem 2 we give a formula for algebraic entropy (as defined by Be...
متن کاملALGEBRAIC Zd-ACTIONS OF ENTROPY RANK ONE
We investigate algebraic Z-actions of entropy rank one, namely those for which each element has finite entropy. Such actions can be completely described in terms of diagonal actions on products of local fields using standard adelic machinery. This leads to numerous alternative characterizations of entropy rank one, both geometric and algebraic. We then compute the measure entropy of a class of ...

متن کاملDegree-growth of Monomial Maps
For projectivizations of rational maps Bellon and Viallet defined the notion of algebraic entropy using the exponential growth rate of the degrees of iterates. We want to call this notion to the attention of dynamicists by computing algebraic entropy for certain rationalmaps of projective spaces (Theorem6.2) and comparing it with topological entropy (Theorem 5.1). The particular rational maps w...
متن کاملAlgebraic Entropy and the Action of Mapping Class Groups on Character Varieties
We extend the definition of algebraic entropy to endomorphisms of affine varieties. We calculate algebraic entropy of the action of elements of mapping class groups on various character varieties, and show that it is equal to a quantity we call the spectral radius, a generalization of the dilatation of a Pseudo-Anosov mapping class. Our calculations are compatible with all known calculations of...
