  1. mathematicsA type of diffeomorphism that represents the evolution of a dynamical system over a unit time interval, where each point in the system's phase space is mapped to another point after one unit of time has passed.

    In [5], Brin and Pesin investigated the dynamical properties of diffeomorphisms like the time-one map of an Anosov flow, which they called "partially hyperbolic."
