Abstract

Ensemble averages of the sensitivity to initial conditions and the entropy production per unit time of a {\it new} family of one-dimensional dissipative maps, , and of the known logistic-like maps, , are numerically studied, both for {\it strong} (Lyapunov exponent ) and {\it weak} (chaos threshold, i.e., ) chaotic cases. In all cases we verify that (i) both and {\it linearly} increase with time for (and only for) a special value of , , and (ii) the {\it slope} of and that of {\it coincide}, thus interestingly extending the well known Pesin theorem. For strong chaos, , whereas at the edge of chaos, .
