In the following text we prove that for bijection ϕ : and discrete set {1,..., k} with k 2, the generalized shift dynamical system ({1,..., k}, σ ϕ ) is e chaotic, (expansive, positively expansive) if and only if {{ϕ i (n) : i Z} : n } is a finite partition of (or equivalently there exists such that = {ϕ i ({1,..., }) : i Z}). AMS (MOS) Subject Classification Codes: 37B99, 54H20 Key Words: e-chaos, Expansive, Generalized shift dynamical system, Positively expansive 1. PRELIMIARES By a topological dynamical system (or briefly dynamical system) (X, f) we mean a topological space X (phase space) and continuous map f : X X. For a nonempty set X consider two maps one-sided shift σ 1 : X X and twosided shift σ 2 : X Z X Z with σ 1 ((x n ) n ) = (x n+1 ) n (for (x n ) n X ) and σ 2 ((y n ) n Z ) = (y n+1 ) n Z (for (y n ) n Z X Z ), where = {1, 2,...} is the set of all natural numbers and Z = {0, ±1, ±2,...} is the set of all integers. One-sided and twosided shifts are well-known and studied in several branches of mathematics, like ergodic theory and dynamical systems. For arbitrary nonempty set Γ, map ϕ : Γ Γ, nonempty set X with at least two elements, we call σ ϕ : X Γ X Γ with σ ϕ ((x α ) α Γ ) = (x ϕ(α) ) (for all (x α ) α Γ X Γ ) the generalized shift. If X is a topological space, consider X Γ under product (pointwise convergence) topology, so σ ϕ : X Γ X Γ is continuous. Generalized shifts in the above form has been introduced in [3], and their dynamical (and non-dynamical) properties has been studied in several texts, like [1], [2] and [6]. REMARK 1. Suppose X is a topological space with at least two elements and Γ is a nonempty set, equip X Γ with product topology. It is well-known that [7]: 135

2 136 Fatemah Ayatollah Zadeh Shirazi and Hooman Zabeti X Γ is compact if and only if X is compact; X Γ is metrizable if and only if X is metrizable and Γ is countable. REMARK 2. Suppose X is a nonempty set with at least two elements and Γ is a nonempty set, then the following statements are equivalent [3]: σ ϕ : X Γ X Γ is bijective; ϕ : Γ Γ is bijective. Hence if X has a topological structure, then σ ϕ : X Γ X Γ is a homeomorphism if and only if ϕ : Γ Γ is bijective. REMARK 3. If Γ is a nonempty set and ϕ : Γ Γ is arbitrary, for α, β Γ let α β if and only if there exists n, m with ϕ n (α) = ϕ m (β). Then is an equivalence relation on X. If ϕ : Γ Γ is bijective and α Γ, then the equivalence class of α under ϕ is α = {ϕ n (α) : n Z}, so α has exactly one of the following forms: there exists m with α = {α n : 0 n < m} where α i s are distinct ϕ(α i ) = α i+1 for i = 0,..., m 1 and ϕ(α m 1 ) = α 0 ; α = {α n : n Z}, α n s are distinct and ϕ(α n ) = α n+1 for n Z. In addition for bijective ϕ : Γ Γ and α, β Γ we have α β if and only if there exists n Z with ϕ n (α) = β. In the following text suppose X is a discrete finite set with at least two elements and Γ is a countable infinite set. So we may suppose X = {1,..., k} with discrete topology, k 2, and Γ =, also suppose ϕ : Γ Γ is bijective (note to Remarks 1 and 2). The main aim of this text is to study e chaotic generalized shift dynamical system ({1,..., k}, σ ϕ ). 2. WHE IS ({1,..., k}, σ ϕ ) EXPASIVE? We call the dynamical system (Y, f) (or briefly f : Y Y ) with compact metric space (Y, ρ) and homeomorphism f : Y Y, expansive if there exists µ > 0 such that for all distinct x, y Y there exists n Z with ρ(f n (x), f n (y)) > µ. REMARK 4. For arbitrary set Y we call the collection F of subsets of Y Y a uniform structure in Y if (let Y = {(x, x) : x Y }) [5]: α F ( Y α); α, β F (α β F); α F β F (β β 1 α); α F β Y Y (α β β F). Moreover for all α F and x Y let α[x] = {y Y : (x, y) α}. If F is a uniform structure in Y, then {U Y : x Y α F (α[x] U)} is a topology on Y, we call it uniform topology induced from F. We call the topological space uniformazable if there exists a uniform structure F in Y such that uniform topology induced from F coincides with original topology on Y, and in this case we call F compatible uniform structure in Y. Every compact Hausdorff (resp. compact metric) space is uniformazable and has a unique compatible uniform structure. If Y is a compact metric space, for ε > 0 let α ε = {(x, y) Y Y : ρ(x, y) ε}, and G = {D Y Y : δ > 0(α δ D)}, then G is a compatible uniform structure in Y. It s evident that homeomorphism f : Y Y is expansive if and only if there exists β G such that for all distinct x, y Y there exists n Z with (f n (x), f n (y)) / β. Since G is the unique compatible uniform structure in Y, expansivity of homeomorphism f : Y Y does not depends on ρ and we may choose any compatible metric on Y.

3 e Chaotic Generalized Shift Dynamical Systems 137 Consider the equivalence relation on as in Remark 3. We prove σ ϕ : X X is expansive if and only if = { α : α } is finite. Also using Remark 4 equip {1,..., k} with metric d((x n ) n, (y n ) n ) = n for (x n ) n, (y n ) n {1,..., k}, where: { 0 z = w, δ(z, w) = 1 z w. δ(x n, y n ) 2 n (*) So ({1,..., k}, d) is a compact metric space (metric topology on {1,..., k} induced from d, coincides with product topology on {1,..., k} (see [7])). LEMMA 2.1. If = { α 1,..., α s }, then for all distinct x, y {1,..., k} there exists n such that d(f n (x), f n 1 (y)) (consider metric d on {1,..., k} as in 2 max(α 1,...,αs) (*)). Proof. Consider distinct x = (x n ) n, y = (y n ) n {1,..., k}. There exists m with x m y m, there exists r {1,..., s} with m αr, so there exists k Z with ϕ k (α r ) = m. Suppose (z n ) n := σ k ϕ(x) = (x ϕ k (n)) n and (w n ) n := σ k ϕ(y) = (y ϕ k (n)) n. Thus which completes the proof. d(σ k ϕ(x), σ k ϕ(y)) = d((z n ) n, (w n ) n ) δ(z α r, w αr ) = δ(xϕk (α r ), y ϕk (α r )) 2 αr 2 αr = δ(x m, y m ) 2 α r = 1 2 α r 1 2 max(α 1,...,α s ) COROLLARY 2.1. If is finite, then σ ϕ : {1,..., k} {1,..., k} is expansive. Proof. If = { α 1,..., α s 1 } choose µ (0, ). By Lemma 2.1 for all 2 max(α 1,...,αs) distinct x, y {1,..., k} there exists n Z with d(σϕ(x), n σϕ(y)) n 1 > µ 2 max(α 1,...,α s) which leads to the desired result by Remark 4. LEMMA 2.2. If is infinite, then σ ϕ : {1,..., k} {1,..., k} is not expansive. 1 Proof. Consider µ > 0, then there exists such that < µ. Since 2n m is infinite, there exists m such that k for all k {1,..., }, i.e. m \ ( 1 ), and m \ ( 1 ) \ {1,..., } let x n = y n = 1 for all n \ {m}, x m = 1 and y m = 2. For x = (x n ) n, y = (y n ) n for all r Z we have: d(σϕ(x), r σϕ(y)) r = d((x ϕ r (n)) n, (y ϕ r (n)) n ) 1 2 n = 1 2 n x ϕ r (n) y ϕ r (n) Hence we have: ϕ r (n)=m n> nm µ > 0 x y r Z (d(f r (x), f r (y)) < µ). 1 2 n n> 1 2 n < µ.

4 138 Fatemah Ayatollah Zadeh Shirazi and Hooman Zabeti Using Remark 4, σ ϕ : {1,..., k} {1,..., k} is not expansive. THEOREM 2.1. For bijection ϕ : and discrete set {1,..., k} with k 2, the generalized shift dynamical system ({1,..., k}, σ ϕ ) is expansive if and only if is finite (i.e., there exists n 1,..., n s with = {ϕ i (n j ) : j {1,..., s}, i Z}). Proof. Use Corollary 2.1 and Lemma 2.2. EXAMPLE 1. Define ϕ 1, ϕ 2 : with: n + 2 n is odd { n + 1 n is odd ϕ 1 (n) = n 2 n > 2 is even and ϕ 2 (n) = n 1 n is even 1 n = 2 then ({1,..., k}, σ ϕ1 ) is expansive, and ({1,..., k}, σ ϕ2 ) is not expansive, since {} and 2 = {{2n 1, 2n} : n }. 1 = 3. e CHAOTIC GEERALIZED SHIFT DYAMICAL SYSTEM ({1,..., k}, σ ϕ ) We call the dynamical system (Y, f), e chaotic, if it is expansive and the set of all periodic points (of f : Y Y ) is dense in Y [9], we recall that a Y is a periodic point of f : Y Y if there exists n 1 with f n (a) = a. REMARK 5. If Y is a discrete topological space with at least two elements, Λ is a nonempty set and η : Λ Λ is arbitrary, then the set of periodic points of σ η : Y Λ Y Λ (σ η ((x α ) α Λ ) = (x η(α) ) α Λ ) is dense in Y Λ if and only if η : Λ Λ is one to one [4, Theorem 2.6]. THEOREM 3.1 (main). For bijection ϕ : discrete set {1,..., k} with k 2, in the generalized shift dynamical system ({1,..., k}, σ ϕ ), the following statements are equivalent: ({1,..., k}, σ ϕ ) is e chaotic; ({1,..., k}, σ ϕ ) is expansive; is finite (i.e., there exists n 1,..., n s with = {ϕ i (n j ) : j {1,..., s}, i Z}, or equivalently {{ϕ i (n) : i Z} : n } is a finite partition of ). Proof. Use Remark 5 and Theorem 2.1. EXAMPLE 2. Using [4, Theorem 2.13], for discrete topological space Y with at least two elements and η :, the generalized shift dynamical system (Y, σ η ) is Devaney chaotic if and only if η : is one to one without any periodic point. Let: L = the class of all generalized shift dynamical systems (Y, σ η ), where η : is bijective. L 1 = the class of all Devaney chaotic generalized shift dynamical systems (Y, σ η ), where η : is bijective. L 2 = the class of all e chaotic generalized shift dynamical systems (y, σ η ), where η : is bijective. We have the following diagram:

MORE DETAILS O EXPASIVE GEERALIZED SHIFT DYAMICAL SYSTEMS Regarding previous sections, let s call the dynamical system ((Z, F), f) with uniform phase space (Z, F) and homeomorphism f : Z Z expansive if there exists µ F such that for all distinct x, y Z there exists n Z with (f n (x), f n (y)) / µ. In this section suppose (Y, K) is a uniform Hausdorff space with at least two elements, Λ is a nonempty set and λ : Λ Λ is an arbitrary map. It is well-known that product and subspaces of uniform spaces are uniformzable. In this section we prove that if the generalized shift dynamical system (Y Λ, σ λ ) with bijection λ : Λ Λ is expansive (with any compatible uniformity on Y Λ, where Y Λ equipped with product topology), then Λ is countable and {{λ n (α) : n Z} : α Λ} is a finite partition of Λ. COROLLARY 4.1. Using Theorem 3.1 if M is countable, W is finite discrete with at least two elements and ψ : M M is bijective, then the following statements are equivalent (note that W M with product topology is a compact metrizable space): (W M, σ ψ ) is e chaotic, (W M, σ ψ ) is expansive, M ψ is finite. THEOREM 4.1. For bijection λ : Λ Λ if the generalized shift dynamical system (Y Λ, σ λ ) is expansive, then Λ is countable and and Λ is finite. α Proof. First of all note that for all α Λ, = {λ n (α) : n Z} is countable. Suppose {α n } n 1 is a sequence in Λ and p, q are two distinct elements of Y. Let M = { αn : n 1}. Since (Y Λ, σ λ ) is expansive, ({p, q} M, σ λ M ) is expansive too. Since {p, q} is a discrete set with two elements and M is countable, using Corollary 4.1, for ψ = λ M M the set ψ (= { αn : n 1}) is finite. Thus we don t have any infinite sequence in Λ and Λ is finite. Since Λ α is finite and all ( Λ ) is countable, the set Λ = Λ is countable too.

6 140 Fatemah Ayatollah Zadeh Shirazi and Hooman Zabeti Positively expansive dynamical system. We call the dynamical system (Y, f) (or briefly f : Y Y ) with compact metric space (Y, ρ), positively expansive if there exists µ > 0 such that for all distinct x, y Y there exists n 0 with ρ(f n (x), f n (y)) > µ [8]. It s evident that for homeomorphism f : Y Y, if (Y, f) is positively expansive, then it is expansive. Using the same method described in Remark 4 positively expansivity of continuous map f : Y Y does not depends on ρ and we may choose any compatible metric on Y. Using the same proof as in Lemma 2.2, for arbitrary self-map µ :, if the generalized shift dynamical system ({1,..., k}, σ µ ) is positively expansive, then µ is finite. However for constant map µ : with µ(n) = 1, the dynamical system ({1,..., k}, σ µ ) is not positively expansive, although µ is finite. Moreover using Lemma 2.1 and Theorem 3.1 we have the following corollary. COROLLARY 4.2. For bijection ϕ : and discrete set {1,..., k} with k 2, the generalized shift dynamical system ({1,..., k}, σ ϕ ) is expansive if and only if it is positively expansive. 5.
