Everything about Measure-preserving Dynamical System totally explained

In mathematics, a measure-preserving dynamical system is an object of study in the abstract formulation of dynamical systems, and ergodic theory in particular.

Definition

A measure-preserving dynamical system is defined as a probability space and a measure-preserving transformation on it. In more detail, it's a system » (X, mathcal h_mu(T,Q)

where the supremum is taken over all finite measurable partitions. A theorem of Ya. Sinai in 1959 shows that the supremum is actually obtained on partitions that are generators. Thus, for example, the entropy of the Bernoulli process is log 2, since every real number has a unique binary expansion. That is, one may partition the unit interval into the intervals [0,1/2) and [1/2,1]. Every real number x is either less than 1/2 or not; and likewise so is the fractional part of 2^nx.
   If the space X is endowed with a metric, then the topological entropy may also be defined.
