Abstract

Let f,gf,g be C2C^2 area-preserving Anosov diffeomorphisms on T2\mathbb{T}^2 which are topologically conjugate by a homeomorphism hh (hf=ghhf=gh). We assume that the Jacobian periodic data of ff and gg are matched by hh for all points of some large period NNN\in\mathbb{N}. We show that ff and gg are ``approximately smoothly conjugate." That is, there exists a C1+αC^{1+\alpha} diffeomorphism hN\overline{h}_N such that hh and hN\overline{h}_N are C0C^0 exponentially close in NN, and ff and fN:=hN1ghNf_N:=\overline{h}_N^{-1}g\overline{h}_N are C1C^1 exponentially close in NN. Moreover, the rates of convergence are uniform among different f,gf,g in a C2C^2 bounded set of Anosov diffeomorphisms. The main idea in constructing hN\overline{h}_N is to do a ``weighted holonomy" construction, and the main technical tool in obtaining our estimates is a uniform effective version of Bowen's equidistribution theorem of weighted discrete orbits to the SRB measure.
