The shadowing property for piecewise monotone interval maps

Dynamical Systems 2025-02-10 v1

Abstract

The property of shadowing has been shown to be fundamental in both the theory of symbolic dynamics as well as continuous dynamical systems. A quintessential class of discontinuous dynamical systems are those driven by transitive piecewise monotone interval maps and in particular β\beta-transformations, namely transformations of the form Tβ,α:xβx+α  (mod1)T_{\beta, \alpha} : x \mapsto \beta x + \alpha \; (\operatorname{mod} \, 1) acting on [0,1][0,1]. We provide a short elegant proof showing that this class of dynamical systems does not possess the property of shadowing, complementing and extending the work of Chen and Portela.
