Stability index for chaotically driven concave maps

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We study skew product systems driven by a hyperbolic base map S (e.g. a baker map or an Anosov surface diffeomorphism) and with simple concave fibre maps on an interval [0,a] like h(x)=g( heta) tanh(x) where g( heta) is a factor driven by the base map. The fibre-wise attractor is the graph of an upper semicontinuous function phi( heta). For many choices of the function g, phi has a residual set of zeros but phi>0 almost everywhere w.r.t. the Sinai-Ruelle-Bowen measure of S^(-1). In such situations we evaluate the stability index of the global attractor of the system, which is the subgraph of phi, at all regular points ( heta,0) in terms of the local exponents Gamma( heta):=lim_{n oinfty} 1/n log g_n( heta) and Lambda( heta):=lim_{n oinfty} 1/nlog|D_u S^{-n}( heta)| and of the positive zero s_* of a certain thermodynamic pressure function associated with S^(-1) and g. (In queuing theory, an analogon of s_* is known as Loyne's exponent.) The stability index was introduced by Podvigina and Ashwin in 2011 to quantify the local scaling of basins of attraction.
