Reduction of the continuous-flow MET to the discrete theorem #
At integer times the continuous-flow Oseledets multiplicative ergodic theorem reduces to the
discrete-time theorem Oseledets.oseledets_filtration'.
The continuous-flow data is a measure-preserving flow φ (Oseledets.MeasurePreservingFlow)
and a continuous-time linear cocycle A over it (Oseledets.FlowCocycle). The reduction
identity Oseledets.FlowCocycle.toCocycle_eq shows that at integer times the continuous-time
cocycle equals the discrete iterated cocycle generated by its time-1 map A 1 over the
time-1 flow map φ 1. Hence, once the discrete MET is applied to the generator A 1 and the
dynamics φ 1, an Oseledets filtration for the integer-time continuous cocycle is obtained.
The additional ingredient is the integrability of the time-1 log-norms. The discrete theorem
requires log⁺ ‖A 1‖ ∈ L¹(μ) and log⁺ ‖(A 1)⁻¹‖ ∈ L¹(μ); these follow from a
uniform-on-[0,1] integrable dominating function for the continuous family, which is the
natural continuous-flow hypothesis (a continuous-time analogue of the discrete one-sided
integrability assumption).

Integrability of the time-1 log-norm. If an integrable function g dominates
log⁺ ‖A s‖ uniformly over s ∈ [0,1] (in particular at s = 1), then the time-1 map
A 1 of the continuous-time cocycle has integrable positive log-norm, i.e.
IntegrableLogNorm (A 1 ·) μ. This is exactly the discrete one-sided integrability hypothesis
for the generator A 1.
Integrability of the time-1 inverse log-norm. If an integrable function g'
dominates log⁺ ‖(A s)⁻¹‖ uniformly over s ∈ [0,1] (in particular at s = 1), then the
inverse (A 1)⁻¹ of the time-1 cocycle map has integrable positive log-norm, i.e.
IntegrableLogNorm (fun x => (A 1 x)⁻¹) μ. This is the discrete one-sided integrability
hypothesis for the inverse generator.
Reduction of the continuous-flow MET to the discrete theorem at integer times.
Applying the discrete Oseledets theorem Oseledets.oseledets_filtration' to the generator
A 1 over the ergodic time-1 dynamics φ 1 yields an Oseledets filtration for the time-1
cocycle map. Combined with the reduction identity Oseledets.FlowCocycle.toCocycle_eq (which
identifies the integer-time continuous cocycle with the discrete iterated cocycle of A 1 over
φ 1), this gives the integer-time behaviour of the continuous-flow cocycle.
The integrability hypotheses are stated as integrable dominating functions for the continuous
family log⁺ ‖A s‖ (resp. log⁺ ‖(A s)⁻¹‖) uniformly over s ∈ [0,1].
