Abstract: Invariant measures play important roles for describing chaotic behavior of dynamical systems. In this talk, we consider Boltzmann entropy and describe a maximum entropy method for the approximation of invariant measures for position dependent random maps. We present a proof of convergence of the maximum entropy method.
