Stochastic stability for weakly hyperbolic contracting Lorenz maps

Abstract

In this article we study the expanding properties of random perturbations of contracting Lorenz maps satisfying the summability condition of exponent 1. Under general conditions on the maps and perturbation types, we prove stochastic stability in the strong sense: convergence of the densities of the stationary measures to the density of the physical measure of the unperturbed map in the $L^1$-norm. This improves the main result in \cite{Me}.
