Decay of correlations for the automorphism of the torus

Abstract
We present new analytical results concerning Markov partitions, transition matrices and decay of correlations for hyperbolic algebraic automorphisms of the torus . A new numerical tool for the computation of the decay of correlations for automorphism is also illustrated. The tool, based on Markov partitions, allows us to calculate the correlation integrals for a large variety of functions and domains defined in and for a high number of iterations of the map. It can be used to test other numerical and analytical methods for estimating correlation decay.
