A Sampling Theorem for Rotation Numbers of Linear Processes in {R}²

We prove an ergodic theorem for the rotation number of the composition of a sequence os stationary random homeomorphisms in $S^{1}$. In particular, the concept of rotation number of a matrix $g\in Gl^{+}(2,{\R})$ can be generalized to a product of a sequence of stationary random matrices in $Gl^{+}(2,{\R})$. In this particular case this result provides a counter-part of the Osseledec's multiplicative ergodic theorem which guarantees the existence of Lyapunov exponents. A random sampling theorem is then proved to show that the concept we propose is consistent by discretization in time with the rotation number of continuous linear processes on ${\R}^{2}.$
