Abstract

The notions of fair measure and fair entropy were introduced by Misiurewicz and Rodrigues recently, and discussed in detail for piecewise monotone interval maps. In particular, they showed that the fair entropy h(a)h(a) of the tent map faf_a, as a function of the parameter a=exp(htop(fa))a=\exp(h_{top}(f_a)), is continuous and strictly increasing on [2,2][\sqrt{2},2]. In this short note, we extend the last result and characterize regularity of the function hh precisely. We prove that hh is 12\frac{1}{2}-H\"{o}lder continuous on [2,2][\sqrt{2},2] and identify its best H\"{o}lder exponent on each subinterval of [2,2][\sqrt{2},2]. On the other hand, parallel to a recent result on topological entropy of the quadratic family due to Dobbs and Mihalache, we give a formula of pointwise H\"{o}lder exponents of hh at parameters chosen in an explicitly constructed set of full measure. This formula particularly implies that the derivative of hh vanishes almost everywhere.
