Operations On Partitions
Given a partition Q = {Q1, ..., Qk} and a dynamical system, we define T-pullback of Q as
Further, given two partitions Q = {Q1, ..., Qk} and R = {R1, ..., Rm}, we define their refinement as
With these two constructs we may define refinement of an iterated pullback
which plays crucial role in the construction of the measure-theoretic entropy of a dynamical system.

Famous quotes containing the words operations and/or partitions:
“A sociosphere of contact, control, persuasion and dissuasion, of exhibitions of inhibitions in massive or homeopathic doses...: this is obscenity. All structures turned inside out and exhibited, all operations rendered visible. In America this goes all the way from the bewildering network of aerial telephone and electric wires ... to the concrete multiplication of all the bodily functions in the home, the litany of ingredients on the tiniest can of food, the exhibition of income or IQ.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“Walls have cracks and partitions ears.”
—Chinese proverb.
