Abstract

There is a C1C^1-residual (Baire second class) subset R\mathcal{R} of symplectic diffeomorphisms on 2d2d-dimensional manifold, d1d\geq 1, such that for every non-Anosov ff in R\mathcal{R} its topological entropy is lower bounded by the supremum of the Lyapunov exponents of their hyperbolic periodic points in the \emph{unbreakable central subbundle} (i.e., central direction with no dominated splitting) of ff. The previous result deals with the fact that for ff in a residual set R~\tilde{\mathcal{R}} of symplectic diffeomorphisms (containing R\mathcal{R}) satisfies a trichotomy: or ff is Anosov or ff is robustly transitive partially hyperbolic with {\em unbreakable center} of dimension 2m2m, 0<m<d0 < m < d, or ff has totally elliptic periodic points dense on MM. In the second case, we also show the existence of a sequence of mm-{\em elliptic} periodic points converging to MM. Indeed, R~\tilde{\mathcal{R}} contains an open and dense subset.
