Abstract
We study the geodesic flow on the unit tangent bundle of a rank one manifold and we give conditions under which all classical definitions of pressure of a H\"older continuous potential coincide. We provide a large deviation statement, which allows to neglect (periodic) orbits that lack sufficient hyperbolic behavior. Our results involve conditions on the potential, that take into consideration its properties in the nonhyperbolic part of the manifold. We draw some conclusions for the construction of equilibrium states.
