    Title:

    Measures of dependence : application to one-dimensional dynamical systems.

    Abstract:

    Even a simple and deterministic dynamical system may behave "impredictably". One says that the system presents a "chaotic" behavior. Choosing two initial conditions close to each other, one may observe, after a finite time, two orbits which are totally diferent. This motivates the study of the statistical properties of dynamical systems. We will introduce in this talk several measures of dependence [1] which will allow to derive interesting stochastic properties for two classes of one-dimensional expanding dynamical systems ([2],[3]).
