Abstract: We study how dynamical quantities such as Lyapunov exponents, metric entropy, topological pressure, recurrence rates, and dimension-like characteristics change under a time reparameterization of a dynamical system. These quantities are shown to either remain invariant, transform according to a multiplicative factor or transform through a convoluted dependence that may take the form of an integral over the initial local values. We discuss the significance of these results for the apparent non-invariance of chaos in general relativity and explore applications to the synchronization of equilibrium states and the elimination of expansions.

Review text

This nice paper provides a complete characterization of how quantifiers of chaotic behavior (Lyapunov exponents, metric entropy, topological pressure, recurrence rates and dimension-like characteristics) transform under a smooth time reparametrization of a dynamical system. The authors prove the following facts: (i) the Lyapunov exponents remain essentially invariant, except for a multiplicative factor that accounts for the change of the time units; (ii) a time reparametrization can be used not only to synchronize the measure of the maximal entropy and the Sinai-Ruelle-Bowen measure, but also to synchronize expansion rates and equilibrium states of smooth potentials; (iii) the generalized dimensions of measures \(D_{q}\) are invariant for \(q\neq1,\) whereas the information dimension \(D_{1}\) and entropies may change. As a result, the paper provides a scheme of relationships for the classification and study of dynamical invariants across orbit equivalent flows and a mathematical foundation for the study of chaos in general relativity and other physical theories that do not have an absolute time parameter.
