Many dynamical stochastic processes occur “on top” of a deterministic process. We present a method which uses the trajectory of the deterministic process as basis functions for quasiarbitrary distributions. A map for the stochastic process can then be computed. This may have applications in electron storage rings or other devices perturbed by a small stochasticity. In this paper we will look only at the most elementary applications of the method.
