A property of a dynamical system (a cascade or a flow (continuous-time dynamical system)
) having a finite invariant measure
, in which for any two measurable subsets
and
of the phase space
, the measure
![]() |
or, respectively,
![]() |
tends to
![]() |
as , or, respectively, as
. If the transformations
and
are invertible, then in the definition of mixing one may replace the pre-images of the original set
with respect to these transformations by the direct images
and
, which are easier to visualize. If a system has the mixing property, one also says that the system is mixing, while in the case of a mixing cascade
, one says that the endomorphism
generating it in the measure space
also is mixing (has the property of mixing).
In ergodic theory, properties related to mixing are considered: multiple mixing and weak mixing (see [H]; in the old literature the latter is often called mixing in the wide sense or simply mixing, while mixing was called mixing in the strong sense). A property intermediate between mixing and weak mixing has also been discussed [FW]. All these properties are stronger than ergodicity.
There is an analogue of mixing for systems having an infinite invariant measure [KS].

Comments
For a cascade on a finite measure space
the notion of weak mixing as defined above is equivalent to the property that the cascade generated by
on the measure space
, where
denotes the product measure, is ergodic (cf. Ergodicity; Metric transitivity). See [1].
For topological dynamical systems the notions of strong and weak mixing have been defined as well [F]. A flow on a topological space is said to be topologically weakly mixing whenever the flow
on
(with the usual product topology) is topologically ergodic; equivalently: whenever for every choice of four non-empty open subsets
(
) of
where exists a
such that
for
. On compact spaces the weakly mixing minimal flows are the minimal flows that have no non-trivial equicontinuous factors; see [A], p. 133. A flow
on a space
is said to be topologically strongly mixing whenever for every two non-empty open subsets
and
of
there exists a value
such that

. For example, the geodesic flow on a complete two-dimensional Riemannian manifold of constant negative curvature is topologically strongly mixing; see [GH], 13.49. For cascades, the definitions are analogous.
