Li-Yorke chaos for invertible mappings on non-compact spaces

Abstract

In this paper, we give two examples to show that an invertible mapping is Li-Yorke chaotic does not imply its inverse being Li-Yorke chaotic, in which one is an invertible bounded linear operator on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space and the other is a homeomorphism on the unit open disk. Moreover, we use the last example to prove that Li-Yorke chaos is not preserved under topological conjugacy.
