Because the existence of positive exponents (or SRB measures) is, in a natural way, a manifestation of ``chaos'', these results may be understood as saying that the chaotic character of a dynamical system is undecidable. Our investigation is directly motivated by questions asked by Carleson and Smale in this direction.7 pagesDynamical Systems37C99;03D35Decidability of chaos for some families of dynamical systemstext
