Iterated Piecewise-Stationary Random Functions (1909.10093v1)

Abstract: Within the study of uncertain dynamical systems, iterated random functions are a key tool. There, one samples a family of functions according to a stationary distribution. Here, we introduce an extension, where one sample functions according to a time-varying distribution over the family of functions. For such iterated piecewise-stationary random functions on Polish spaces, we prove a number of results, including a bound on the tracking error.
