A family of rotation numbers for discrete random dynamics on the circle

We revisit the problem of well-defining rotation numbers for discrete random dynamical systems on the circle. We show that, contrasting with deterministic systems, the topological (i.e. based on Poincaré lifts) approach does depend on the choice of lifts (e.g. continuously for nonatomic randomness). Furthermore, the winding orbit rotation number does not agree with the topological rotation number. Existence and conversion formulae between these distinct numbers are presented. Finally, we prove a sampling in time theorem which recover the rotation number of continuous Stratonovich stochastic dynamical systems on $S^1$ out of its time discretisation of the flow.

A Sampling Theorem for Rotation Numbers of Linear Processes in ${\R}^{2}$

We prove an ergodic theorem for the rotation number of the composition of a sequence os stationary random homeomorphisms in $S^{1}$. In particular, the concept of rotation number of a matrix $g\in Gl^{+}(2,{\R})$ can be generalized to a product of a sequence of stationary random matrices in $Gl^{+}(2,{\R})$. In this particular case this result provides a counter-part of the Osseledec's multiplicative ergodic theorem which guarantees the existence of Lyapunov exponents. A random sampling theorem is then proved to show that the concept we propose is consistent by discretization in time with the rotation number of continuous linear processes on ${\R}^{2}.$
