Is the Finite-Time Lyapunov Exponent Field a Koopman Eigenfunction?
@article{Bollt2021IsTF, title={Is the Finite-Time Lyapunov Exponent Field a Koopman Eigenfunction?}, author={Erik M. Bollt and Shane D. Ross}, journal={Mathematics}, year={2021} }
This work serves as a bridge between two approaches to analysis of dynamical systems: the local, geometric analysis, and the global operator theoretic Koopman analysis. We explicitly construct vector fields where the instantaneous Lyapunov exponent field is a Koopman eigenfunction. Restricting ourselves to polynomial vector fields to make this construction easier, we find that such vector fields do exist, and we explore whether such vector fields have a special structure, thus making a link…

A Data–Driven Approximation of the Koopman Operator: Extending Dynamic Mode Decomposition
- MathematicsJ. Nonlinear Sci.

This approach is an extension of dynamic mode decomposition (DMD), which has been used to approximate the Koopman eigenvalues and modes, and if the data provided to the method are generated by a Markov process instead of a deterministic dynamical system, the algorithm approximates the eigenfunctions of the Kolmogorov backward equation.
