A new approach is used to describe the large time behavior of the non-local differential equation initially studied in [3]. Our approach is based upon the existence of infinitely many Lyapunov functionals and allows us to extend the…
Lyapunov exponents measure the average exponential growth rate of typical linear perturbations in a chaotic system, and the inverse of the largest exponent is a measure of the time horizon over which the evolution of the system can be…
