When quantifying the mixing properties of a quantum dynamical system in terms of dynamical entropy, the following scheme appears natural: observe the state of the system at regular time intervals while it evolves and determine the entropy…

Complex dynamical systems driven by the unravelling of information can be modelled effectively by treating the underlying flow of information as the model input. Complicated dynamical behaviour of the system is then derived as an output.…
