Abstract: We introduce the notions of measurable and strong measurable sensitivity, which are measure-theoretic versions of the conditions of sensitive dependence on initial conditions and strong sensitive dependence on initial conditions, respectively. Strong measurable sensitivity is a consequence of light mixing, implies that a transformation has only finitely many eigenvalues, and does not exist in the infinite measure-preserving case. Unlike the traditional notions of sensitive dependence, measurable and strong measurable sensitivity carry up to measure-theoretic isomorphism, thus ignoring the behavior of the transformation on null sets and eliminating dependence on the choice of metric.
