Eigenfunctions of the Perron–Frobenius operator and the finite-time Lyapunov exponents in uniformly hyperbolic area-preserving maps

Eigenfunctions of the Perron–Frobenius operator and the finite-time Lyapunov exponents in uniformly hyperbolic area-preserving maps

The subleading eigenvalues and associated eigenfunctions of the Perron-Frobenius operator for 2-dimensional area-preserving maps are numerically investigated. We closely examine the validity of the so-called Ulam method, a numerical scheme believed to provide eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Perron-Frobenius operator, both for linear and nonlinear maps on the torus. For …
