This paper is concerned with distribution of maps with transversal homoclinic orbits in a continuous map space, which consists of continuous maps defined in a closed and bounded set of a Banach space. By the transversal homoclinic theorem, it is shown that the map space contains a dense set of maps that have transversal homoclinic orbits and are chaotic in the sense of both Li-Yorke and Devaney with positive topological entropy.

We give a characterization of the set of nonwandering points of a continuous map f of the interval with zero topological entropy, attracted to a single (infinite) minimal set Q. We show that such a map f can have a unique infinite minimal set Q and an infinite set B ⊂ Ω (f)\ ω (f) (of nonwandering points that are not ω-limit points) attracted to Q and such that B has infinite intersections with infinitely many disjoint orbits of f.

We present a simpler elementary proof on positive topological entropy of theN-buffer switched flow networks based on a new simple theorem on positive topological entropy of continuous map on compact metric space.

AbstractLet f be a continuous map from the circle into itself of degree one, having a periodic orbit of rotation number p/q ≠ 0. If (p, q) = 1 then we prove that f has a twist periodic orbit of period q and rotation number p/q (i.e. a periodic orbit which behaves as a rotation of the circle with angle 2πp/q). Also, for this map we give the best lower bound of the topological entropy as a function of the rotation interval if one of the endpoints of the interval is an integer.

AbstractIt is known that the positiveness of topological entropy, the existence of a horseshoe and the existence of a homoclinic trajectory are mutually equivalent, for interval maps. The aim of the paper is to investigate the relations between the properties for continuous maps of trees, graphs and dendrites. We consider three different definitions of a horseshoe and two different definitions of a homoclinic trajectory. All the properties are mutually equivalent for tree maps, whereas not for maps on graphs and dendrites. For example, positive topological entropy and the existence of a homoclinic trajectory are independent and neither of them implies the existence of any horseshoe in the case of dendrites. Unfortunately, there is still an open problem, and we formulate it at the end of the paper.

In the eighties, Misiurewicz, Bruckner and Hu provided examples of functions chaotic in the sense of Li and Yorke almost everywhere. In this paper we show that similar results are true for distributional chaos, introduced in [Schweizer & Smítal, 1994]. In fact, we show that any bitransitive continuous map of the interval is conjugate to a map uniformly distributionally chaotic almost everywhere. Using a result of A. M. Blokh we get as a consequence that for any map f with positive topological entropy there is a k such that fk is semiconjugate to a continuous map uniformly distributionally chaotic almost everywhere, and consequently, chaotic in the sense of Li and Yorke almost everywhere.

The category of metric spaces is a subcategory of quasi-metric spaces. It is shown that the entropy of a map when symmetric properties is included is greater or equal to the entropy in the case that the symmetric property of the space is not considered. The topological entropy and Shannon entropy have similar properties such as nonnegativity, subadditivity and conditioning reduces entropy. In other words, topological entropy is supposed as the extension of classical entropy in dynamical systems. In the recent decade, different extensions of Shannon entropy have been introduced. One of them which generalizes many classical entropies is unified $(r,s)$-entropy. In this paper, we extend the notion of unified $(r, s)$-entropy for the continuous maps of a quasi-metric space via spanning and separated sets. Moreover, we survey unified $(r, s)$-entropy of a map for two metric spaces that are associated with a given quasi-metric space and compare unified $(r, s)$-entropy of a map of a given quasi-metric space and the maps of its associated metric spaces. Finally we define Tsallis topological entropy for the continuous map on a quasi-metric space via Bowen's definition and analyze some properties such as chain rule.

Consider the continuous mappings f from a compact real interval to itself. We show that when f has a positive topological entropy (or equivalently, when f has a cycle of order ≠ 2n, n = 0, 1, 2, …) then f has a more complex behaviour than chaoticity in the sense of Li and Yorke: something like strong or uniform chaoticity, distinguishable on a certain level ɛ > 0. Recent results of the second author then imply that any continuous map has exactly one of the following properties: It is either strongly chaotic or every trajectory is approximable by cycles. Also some other conditions characterizing chaos are given.

We introduce the notion of the center of a point for discrete dynamical systems and we study its properties for continuous interval maps. It is known that the Birkhoff center of any such map has depth at most 2. Contrary to this, we show that if a map has positive topological entropy then, for any countable ordinal α, there is a point xα∈I such that its center has depth at least α. This improves a result by [Sharkovskii, 1966].

Let X be a compact space and f be a continuous map from X into itself. The topological entropy of f, h(f), was defined by Adler, Konheim and McAndrew [1]. After that Bowen [4] defined the topological entropy for uniformly continuous maps of metric spaces, and proved that the two entropies coincide when the spaces are compact. The definition of Bowen is useful in calculating entropy of continuous maps.

We consider six properties of continuous maps, such as the existence of an arc horseshoe, the positivity of topological entropy, the existence of a homoclinic trajectory, or Lyapunov instability on the set of periodic points. The relations between the considered properties are provided in the case of graph maps, dendrite maps and maps on compact metric spaces. For example, by [Llibre & Misiurewicz, 1993] in the case of graph maps, the existence of an arc horseshoe implies the positivity of topological entropy, but we construct a continuous map on a Peano continuum with an arc horseshoe and zero topological entropy. We also formulate one open problem.
