C*-dynamics and entropy
[PDF] -
A basic problem in dynamics is to determine whether or not a given
system has positive entropy, i.e., whether or not it is
``chaotic.'' While there is a vast collection of results addressing
this issue in topological dynamics, the phenomenon of positive entropy
remains by and large a mystery within the broader noncommutative domain
of C*-algebraic dynamics. To shed some light on the noncommutative
situation we propose a geometric perspective inspired by work of
Glasner and Weiss on topological entropy.
