Abstract:
In their famous paper, Schweizer and Smítal introduced the definition of a distributionally chaotic pair and proved that the existence of such a pair implies positive topological entropy for continuous mappings of a compact interval. Further, their approach was extended to the general compact metric space case.
In this article we provide an example which shows that the definition of distributional chaos (and as a result Li-Yorke chaos) may be fulfilled by a dynamical system with (intuitively) regular dynamics embedded in $\mathbb {R}^3$. Next, we state strengthened versions of distributional chaos which, as we show, are present in systems commonly considered to have complex dynamics.
We also prove that any interval map with positive topological entropy contains two invariant subsets $X,Y \subset I$ such that $f|_X$ has positive topological entropy and $f|_Y$ displays distributional chaos of type $1$, but not conversely.
