Abstract
A number of iterated maps and one. flow, which show chaotic behavior, have been studied numerically and their time evolution expressed in terms of higher-order moments M-m(t). All the cases show anomalous behavior with M-m(t)similar to t(g(m)), with g(m) not equal alpha m. A simple analytic treatment is given based on an effective diffusion that is dependent on both space and time. This leads to a form for g(m)/m=a-b/m, which is in good agreement with numerical results. This behavior is attributed to the presence of convective motion superimposed on the background diffusion, and hence this behavior is expected in a wide variety of maps and flows.
