A remark about topological and measure entropy for a class of maps of the interval [0,1] (Q1102009)

A quadratic family of maps \(f_ a: x\mapsto ax(1-x)\) of the interval \([0,1]\) is considered. The characteristic polynomial for topological entropy \(h(f_ a)\) is calculated for some values \(a_ n\to 4\) of parameter (such that the origin is preperiodic). As a consequence the author states that \(h(fa_ n)\nearrow \ell n 2.\) Remark that this result follows from the well-known theorems on the continuity and increasing of \(h(f_ a)\).
