Ergodicity
Ergodicity is a property of a system in which all possible states and trajectories are explored over time, and the average behavior of the system is representative of its overall behavior. This concept is often used in physics, statistics, and mathematics to analyze the long-term behavior of complex systems. In an ergodic system, the system's behavior over time can be accurately predicted by studying a single trajectory or a representative sample of trajectories. This property is crucial for understanding the statistical properties and dynamics of systems with many degrees of freedom.
