We call such transformation $m$-transformation. In this case the orbit of any point looks like a tree. In the study of $m$-transformations we are interested in the properties of the trees. An $m$-transformation generates a stochastic kernel and a new measure. Using these objects, we introduce analogies of some main concept of ergodic theory: ergodicity, Koopman and Frobenius-Perron operators etc. We prove ergodic theorems and consider examples. We also indicate possible applications to fractal geometry and give a generalization of our construction. Some results which have analogies in the classical ergodic theory we are proved using standard methods. Other results have no analogies.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2004-12-08T12:46:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37A05", "28D05", "28A80" ], "keywords": [ "infinite-multivalued transformations", "finite set", "point looks", "transformation generates", "stochastic kernel" ], "note": { "typesetting": "LaTeX", "pages": 16, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2004math.....12158I" } } }
