Abstract

We prove that for every flat surface ω\omega, the Hausdorff dimension of the set of directions in which Teichm\"{u}ller geodesics starting from ω\omega exhibit a definite amount of deviation from the correct limit in Birkhoff's and Oseledets' Theorems is strictly less than 11. This theorem extends a result by Chaika and Eskin where they proved that such sets have measure 00. We also prove that the Hausdorff dimension of the directions in which Teichm\"{u}ller geodesics diverge on average in a stratum is bounded above by 1/21/2, strengthening a classical result due to Masur. Moreover, we show that the Hausdorff codimension of the set of non-weakly mixing IETs with permutation (d,d1,,1)(d, d-1, \dots, 1), where dd is an odd number, is exactly 1/21/2 and strengthen a result by Avila and Leguil.
