LetS:[0,1]→[0,1] be a nonsingular transformation such that the corresponding Frobenius-Perron operatorPS:L1(0,1)→L1(0,1) has a stationary densityf∗. We propose a maximum entropy method based on piecewise linear functions for the numerical recovery off∗. An advantage of this new approximation approach over the maximum entropy method based on polynomial basis functions is that the system of nonlinear equations can be solved efficiently because when we apply Newton’s method, the Jacobian matrices are positive-definite and tri-diagonal. The numerical experiments show that the new maximum entropy method is more accurate than the Markov finite approximation method, which also uses piecewise linear functions, provided that the involved moments are known. This is supported by the convergence rate analysis of the method.
