Chaotic Fields Behave Universally out of Equilibrium
arXiv (Cornell University)(2024)
摘要
Chaotic dynamics is always characterized by swarms of unstable trajectories,unpredictable individually, and thus generally studied statistically. It isoften the case that such phase-space densities relax exponentially fast to alimiting distribution, that rules the long-time average of every observable ofinterest. Before that asymptotic timescale, the statistics of chaos isgenerally believed to depend on both the initial conditions and the chosenobservable. I show that this is not the case for a widely applicable class ofmodels, that feature a phase-space (`field') distribution common to allpushed-forward or integrated observables, while the system is still relaxingtowards statistical equilibrium or a steady state. This universal profile isdetermined by both leading and first subleading eigenfunctions of the transportoperator (Koopman or Perron-Frobenius) that maps phase-space densities forwardor backwards in time.
