Examples of different levels of generalized expansiveness are constructed. When the dynamical system is countable, a characterization of n-expansiveness is given for any natural number n, and as a consequence examples of dynamical systems with van der Waerden depth equal to any given countable ordinal are demonstrated, which solves open questions existing in the literature.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-03-11T15:50:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37B05", "37B45", "54H20" ], "keywords": [ "generalized expansiveness", "dynamical system", "van der waerden depth equal", "open questions", "natural number" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
