Abstract
The conventional method for estimating Lyapunov spectra can give spuri ous positive Lyapunov exponents when applied to random time series. We analyze this phenomenon by using a simple stochastic model which prod uces completely random time series with no temporal correlation. We sh ow that the possible estimation of spurious positive Lyapunov exponent s is due to the statistical nature and finiteness of data. We also der ive an upper bound of the largest Lyapunov exponent for the model.
