摘要
Recently, Buzzi [Maximal entropy measures for piecewise affine surface homeomorphisms. Ergod. Th. %26 Dynam. Sys. 29 (2009), 1723-1763] showed in the compact case that the entropy map f -%26gt; h(top)(f) is lower semi-continuous for all piecewise affine surface homeomorphisms. We prove that topological entropy for 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.
