Exponential decay of correlations for a real valued dynamical system embedded in $\mathbb R^2$

Abstract

We study the real valued process $ \{X_t, t\in {\mathbb N}\} $ defined by $X_{t+2} = \varphi(X_t,X_{t+1})$, where the $X_t$ are bounded. We aim at proving the decay of correlations for this model, under regularity assumptions on the transformation $\varphi$.
