Discontinuity of Topological Entropy for the Lozi Maps

Recently, Buzzi showed in the compact case that the entropy map $f\rightarrow$ $h_{top}(f)$ is lower semi-continuous for all piecewise affine surface homeomorphisms. We prove that topological entropy for the Lozi maps can jump from zero to a value above 0.1203 as one crosses a particular parameter and hence it is not upper semi-continuous in general. Moreover, our results can be extended to a small neighborhood of this parameter showing the jump in the entropy occurs along a line segment in the parameter space.

Monotonicity of the Lozi Family and the Zero Entropy Locus

Ishii and Sands showed the monotonicity of the Lozi family $\mathcal L_{a,b}$ in a $\mathcal C^1$ neighborhood of a-axis in the $a$-$b$ parameter space. We show the monotonicity of the entropy in the vertical direction around $a=2$ and in some other directions for $1<a\leq2$. Also we give some rigorous and numerical results for the parameters at which the Lozi family has zero entropy.
