Conservative systems

In this file we define f : α → α to be a conservative system w.r.t a measure μ if f is non-singular (MeasureTheory.QuasiMeasurePreserving) and for every measurable set s of positive measure at least one point x ∈ s returns back to s after some number of iterations of f. There are several properties that look like they are stronger than this one but actually follow from it:

• MeasureTheory.Conservative.frequently_measure_inter_ne_zero, MeasureTheory.Conservative.exists_gt_measure_inter_ne_zero: if μ s ≠ 0, then for infinitely many n, the measure of s ∩ f^[n] ⁻¹' s is positive.

• MeasureTheory.Conservative.measure_mem_forall_ge_image_not_mem_eq_zero, MeasureTheory.Conservative.ae_mem_imp_frequently_image_mem: a.e. every point of s visits s infinitely many times (Poincaré recurrence theorem).

We also prove the topological Poincaré recurrence theorem MeasureTheory.Conservative.ae_frequently_mem_of_mem_nhds. Let f : α → α be a conservative dynamical system on a topological space with second countable topology and measurable open sets. Then almost every point x : α is recurrent: it visits every neighborhood s ∈ 𝓝 x infinitely many times.

We say that a non-singular (MeasureTheory.QuasiMeasurePreserving) self-map is conservative if for any measurable set s of positive measure there exists x ∈ s such that x returns back to s under some iteration of f.

• absolutelyContinuous : MeasureTheory.Measure.AbsolutelyContinuous (MeasureTheory.Measure.map f μ) μ

  If f is a conservative self-map and s is a measurable set of nonzero measure, then there exists a point x ∈ s that returns to s under a non-zero iteration of f.
