Abstract

Iteration of randomly chosen quadratic maps defines a Markov process: X _n+1 = ε _n+1 X _n(1 - X _n), where ε _n are i.i.d. with values in the parameter space [0,4] of quadratic maps F _θ(x) = θx(1 - x). Its study is of significance as an important Markov model, with applications to problems of optimization under uncertainty arising in economics. In this article a broad criterion is established for positive Harris recurrence of X _n.
