Borrowing shamelessly from Anthony's careful setup last week in the closed dynamics setting, I hope to describe the basic functional analysis setup and a fundamentally different method for calculating (= approximating) the quasi-invariant density using optimization instead of discretization and projection.
Keywords: Open dynamics, Perron-Frobenius operator, density, maximum entropy principle, moment constraints.
