Abstract

We numerically study two conservative two-dimensional maps, namely the baker map (whose Lyapunov exponent is known to be positive), and a typical one (exhibiting a vanishing Lyapunov exponent) chosen from the generalized shift family of maps introduced by C. Moore Phys Rev Lett 64, 2354 (1990). The time evolution of the entropy $S_q 1-\sum_i=1^Wp_i^qq-1$ ($S_1=S_BG-\sum_i=1^Wp_i p_i$) is studied and we exhibit the dramatic effect introduced by numerical precision. In spite of being area-preserving maps, both maps present unexpected pseudo-attractors related to zero Lebesgue-measure effects associated with the frontiers existing in the definition of the map, which gradually disappear for increasingly large precision. We also observe that, consistently with the results by V. Latora and M. Baranger Phys. Rev. Lett. 82, 520 (1999), the rate of the far-from-equilibrium entropy production of the baker map, numerically coincides with the standard Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy of this strongly chaotic system.
