These structures, in turn, are associated to the existence of physical measures. In short in low dimensions, robust chaotic behavior for smooth flows ensures the existence of a physical measure.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2013-08-16T12:30:34.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37D25", "37D30", "37D45" ], "keywords": [ "physical measure", "initial conditions", "sensitive dependence", "robust chaotic behavior meaning sensitiveness", "smooth flows ensures" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008arXiv0804.3616A" } } }
