If is a map then a measure is invariant under if for all . In the context of Hamiltonian flows, an invariant measure on phase space is invariant under the Hamiltonian flow map. This measure is a probability measure if it is positive and has total measure of size 1.
Examples of invariant measures
- Gibbs measure
- Every invariant torus supports at least one invariant measure.
