Abstract
Let T:[0,1]d→[0,1]d be a piecewise expanding map with an absolutely continuous (with respect to the d-dimensional Lebesgue measure md) T-invariant probability measure μ. Let {rn} be a sequence of vectors satisfying the conditons that rn=(rn,1,…,rn,d)∈(R≥0)d, the sequence {min1≤i≤drn,imax1≤i≤drn,i} is bounded and limn→∞max1≤i≤drn,i=0. Let {δn} be a sequence of non-negative real numbers with limn→∞δn=0. Under the assumptions that μ is exponentially mixing and its density is sufficiently regular, we prove that the μ-measure of the following sets Rf({rn})={x∈[0,1]d:Tnx∈R(f(x),rn) for infinitely many n∈N} and Rf×({δn})={x∈[0,1]d:Tnx∈H(f(x),δn) for infinitely many n∈N} obeys zero-full laws determined by the convergence or divergence of natural volume sums. Here, R(f(x),rn) and H(f(x),δn) represent targets as, respectively, coordinate-parallel hyperrectangles with bounded aspect ratio, and hyperboloids, both centered at f(x). f:[0,1]d→[0,1]d is a piecewise Lipschitz vector function. Our results not only unify quantitative recurrence properties and the shrinking target problem for piecewise expanding maps on [0,1]d, but also reveal that the two problems and cross-component recurrence can coexist in distinct directions on [0,1]d.
