Abstract

This paper characterizes a continuous map s such that a measure preserving interval map t exists to be topologically conjugate with s. We show that under mild assumptions this problem is reduced to a Markov chain problem. We derive the conditions for such a t to exist and be unique.

Notes

  1. For t to be a λ-preserving linear Markov map, Ai,j must be the same for all j given i whenever \(A^{*}_{i,j}=1\) and Eq. 7 must be satisfied. Whether {ai,j} exists to meet both conditions depends on A. For the first two A in Example 3 t is a linear Markov map, and for the last A t is not a linear or expanding Markov map.
