Abstract

An approach for deriving the topological entropy of dynamical systems generated by one-dimensional piecewise-continous and piecewise-monotonous maps of an interval is proposed. The technique is based on the application of kneading theory and allows to reduce the calculations for finding a root of some polynomial which is the kneading determinant. Examples of computing the topological entropy including those from the experimental data are presented; the comparison with the Lyapunov exponent is given.
