On the relationship between Lozi maps and max-type difference equations

Abstract

In the present work we revise a transformation that links generalized Lozi maps with max-type difference equations. In this view, according to the technique of topological conjugation, we relate the dynamics of a concrete Lozi map with a complete uniparametric family of max-equations, and we apply this fact to investigate the dynamics of two particular families. Moreover, we present some numerical simulations related to the topic and, finally, we propose some open problems that look into the relationship established between generalized Lozi maps and max-equations.
