Clustering of periodic orbits of a hyperbolic automorphism on the torus T2
Abstract
This paper deals with clustering of periodic orbits of the hyperbolic toral automorphism induced by matrix A. We prove that Ta satisfies the Axiom A. The clustering of periodic orbits of Ta is ivestigated via the notion of 'p-closeness' of periodic sequences of the respective symbolic dynamical system. We also provide the number of clusters of periodic sequences with given periods in the case of 2-closeness.
