  Abstract:
We give hierarchy of one-parameter family ϕ(α,x) of maps at the interval [0,1] with an invariant measure. Using the measure, we calculate Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy, or equivalently Lyapunov characteristic exponent of these maps analytically, where the results thus obtained have been approved with the numerical simulation. In contrary to the usual one-parameter family of maps such as logistic and tent maps, these maps do not possess period doubling or period-n-tupling cascade bifurcation to chaos, but they have single fixed point attractor for certain values of the parameter, where they bifurcate directly to chaos without having period-n-tupling scenario exactly at those values of the parameter whose Lyapunov characteristic exponent begins to be positive.
