Impulsive Lorenz semiflows: Physical measures, statistical stability and entropy stability

Abstract

We study semiflows generated via impulsive perturbations of Lorenz flows. We prove that such semiflows admit a finite number of physical measures. Moreover, if the impulsive perturbation is small enough, we show that the physical measures of the semiflows are close, in the weak* topology, to the unique physical measure of the Lorenz flow. A similar conclusion holds for the entropies associated with the physical measures.
