| Title: | An algorithm to compute pseudo-random numbers in dynamical systems |
| Seminar: | Logic Seminar |
| Speaker: | Manfred Denker, Pennsylvania State University |
| Abstract: |
| This talk presents a new method to compute points in a dynamical system for which the ergodic averages approximate the correct means of (continuous) functions. It does not clarify the connection of the algorithm to computability and complexity although I suspect there is some.
A simple construction would look for points whose ergodic averages are close to the integrals with respect to the invariant measure (the latter are not known in general). Instead, we use a conformal equation to construct these points and show that their ergodic averages approach the correct integral. |
