Conley index for random dynamical systems

Conley index theory is a very powerful tool in the study of dynamical systems. In this paper, we generalize Conley index theory to discrete random dynamical systems. Our constructions are basically the random version of Franks and Richeson in [J. Franks, D. Richeson, Shift equivalence and the Conley index, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 352 (2000) 3305–3322] for maps, and the relations of isolated invariant sets between time-continuous random dynamical systems and corresponding time-h maps are discussed. Two examples are presented to illustrate results in this paper.
