Bianchi IX Chaoticity: BKL Map and Continuous Flow
  We analyze the Bianchi IX dynamics (Mixmaster) in view of its stochastic properties; in the present paper we address either the original approach due to Belinski, Khalatnikov and Lifshitz (BKL) as well as a Hamiltonian one relying on the Arnowitt--Deser--Misner (ADM) reduction. We compare these two frameworks and show how the BKL map is related to the geodesic flow associated with the ADM dynamics. In particular, the link existing between the \textit{anisotropy parameters} and the \textit{Kasner indices} is outlined.
