Abstract

We consider the space of C1C^1-diffeomorphims equipped with the C1C^1-topology on a three dimensional closed manifold. It is known that there are open sets in which C1C^1-generic diffeomorphisms display uncountably many chain recurrences classes, while only countably many of them may contain periodic orbits. The classes without periodic orbits, called aperiodic classes, are the main subject of this paper. The aim of the paper is to show that aperiodic classes of C1C^1-generic diffeomorphisms can exhibit a variety of topological properties. More specifically, there are C1C^1-generic diffeomorphisms with (1) minimal expansive aperiodic classes, (2) minimal but non-uniquely ergodic aperiodic classes, (3) transitive but non-minimal aperiodic classes, (4) non-transitive, uniquely ergodic aperiodic classes.
