Abstract

We consider the two dimensional shrinking target problem in the beta dynamical system for general β>1\beta>1 and with the general error of approximations. Let f,gf, g be two positive continuous functions. For any x0,y0[0,1]x_0,y_0\in[0,1], define the shrinking target set E(Tβ,f,g):={(x,y)[0,1]2:Tβnxx0<eSnf(x)[1ex]Tβnyy0<eSng(y) for infinitely many nN}, E(T_\beta, f,g):=\left\{(x,y)\in [0,1]^2: \begin{array}{ll} |T_{\beta}^{n}x-x_{0}|<e^{-S_nf(x)}\\ [1ex] |T_{\beta}^{n}y-y_{0}|< e^{-S_ng(y)} \end{array} \ {\text{for infinitely many}} \ n\in \N \right\}, where Snf(x)=j=0n1f(Tβjx)S_nf(x)=\sum_{j=0}^{n-1}f(T_\beta^jx) is the Birkhoff sum. We calculate the Hausdorff dimension of this set and prove that it is the solution to some pressure function. This represents the first result of this kind for the higher dimensional beta dynamical systems.
