Entropy and periodic orbits for equivalent smooth flows

Dynamical Systems 2015-03-13 v1

Abstract

Given any K>0K>0, we construct two equivalent C2C^2 flows, one of which has positive topological entropy larger than KK and admits zero as the exponential growth of periodic orbits, in contrast, the other has zero topological entropy and super-exponential growth of periodic orbits. Moreover we establish a CC^{\infty} flow on S2\mathbb{S}^2 with super-exponential growth of periodic orbits, which is also equivalent to another flow with zero exponential growth of periodic orbits. On the other hand, any two dimensional flow has only zero topological entropy.
