Abstract

In this paper we provide a full topological and ergodic description of the dynamics of Filippov systems nearby a sliding Shilnikov orbit \(\Gamma \). More specifically we prove that the first return map, defined nearby \(\Gamma \), is topologically conjugate to a Bernoulli shift with infinite topological entropy. In particular, we see that for each \(m\in \mathbb {N}\) it has infinitely many periodic points with period m. We also study the perturbed system and obtain similar results.
