15 Consider linear automorphisms of the unit hypercube in Euclidean space R N with coordinates (u 1,..., u N ) where u [0, 1) u (k+1) i = N j=1 A ij u (k) j, mod 1, k = 0, 1, 2... (1) The dynamical system defined by the integer matrix A has determinant equal to one DetA = 1.

(1) The dynamical system defined by the integer matrix A has determinant equal to one DetA = 1. The Anosov hyperbolicity C-condition: the matrix A has no eigenvalues on the unit circle. Thus the spectrum Λ = λ 1,..., λ N fulfils the two conditions: 1) DetA = λ 1 λ 2...λ N = 1, 2) λ i 1. (2)
17 The Anosov C-systems are hyperbolic systems x t y the behaviour of all nearby trajectories is exponential
18 The eigenvalues of the matrix A are divided into the two sets {λ α } and {λ β } with modulus smaller and larger than one: 0 < λ α < 1 < λ β. (3)
19 The eigenvalues of the matrix A are divided into the two sets {λ α } and {λ β } with modulus smaller and larger than one: 0 < λ α < 1 < λ β. (3) There exist two families of planes X = {X α } and Y = {Y β } which are parallel to the corresponding eigenvectors {e α } and {e β }.
20 a) b) The eigenvectors of the matrix A {e α } and {e β } define two families of parallel planes {X α } and {Y β }
21 a) b) The eigenvectors of the matrix A {e α } and {e β } define two families of parallel planes {X α } and {Y β } The automorphism A is contracting the points on the planes {X α } and expanding points on the planes {Y β }.
22 a) b) The eigenvectors of the matrix A {e α } and {e β } define two families of parallel planes {X α } and {Y β } The automorphism A is contracting the points on the planes {X α } and expanding points on the planes {Y β }. The a) depicts the parallel planes of the sets {X α } and {Y β } and b) depicts their positions after the action of the automorphism A.
23 The Kolmogorov entropy of a Anosov C-system is: h(a) = ln λ β. (4) λ β >1 The entropy h(a) depends on the spectrum of the operator A.
24 The Kolmogorov entropy of a Anosov C-system is: h(a) = ln λ β. (4) λ β >1 The entropy h(a) depends on the spectrum of the operator A. This allows to characterise and compare the chaotic properties of dynamical C-systems quantitatively computing and comparing their entropies.
25 The variety and richness of the periodic trajectories of the C-systems essentially depends on entropy, the number of periodic trajectories π(t ) of a period T has the form π(t ) e T h(a) /T (5)
26 The variety and richness of the periodic trajectories of the C-systems essentially depends on entropy, the number of periodic trajectories π(t ) of a period T has the form π(t ) e T h(a) /T (5) A system with larger entropy h(a) is more densely populated by the periodic trajectories of the period T.

The relaxation time τ(a) can be associated with the dynamical system τ(a) = 1/h(A) (6) and it should be smaller that the correlation time τ of the system under investigation τ(a) τ (7)
28 The Anosov C-systems have very strong chaotic properties: the exponential instability of all trajectories in fact the instability is as strong as it can be in principle.
29 The Anosov C-systems have very strong chaotic properties: the exponential instability of all trajectories in fact the instability is as strong as it can be in principle. Our aim is to study these characteristics of the C-systems and develop our earlier suggestion to use the Anosov C-systems as random number generator for Monte-Carlo simulations
