Chaos and randomness

Random dynamical system approaches to Noise-induced phenomena

Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy was introduced interpreting generating entropy of chaotic dynamical systems as Shannon entropy of Markov information source [1]. R. Shaw and colleagues studied information flow in dynamical systems with presence of noise by using a framework of noisy communication channels from past to future [2]. Phenomenology and information theoretic significance of such noised dynamical systems are not well-studied except a few works [3][4]. I am working on noise-induced phenomena arisen from interaction between deterministic chaos and stochastic noise, and in general, complex nonlinear phenomena in random dynamics. Applications to time-series analysis and prediction are also investigated with this framework.
