Abstract

We investigate the statistical stability of a class of dynamical systems semi-conjugate to pre-piecewise \textit{convex or expanding} maps with countably many branches. These systems naturally arise in the study of transformations with unbounded derivatives, discontinuities, or infinite Markov partitions; features that pose significant challenges for stability analysis. Specifically, we consider one-parameter families of transformations {Fδ}δ[0,1)\{F_\delta\}_{\delta \in [0,1)} and their corresponding invariant measures {μδ}\{\mu_\delta\}. We provide general conditions ensuring that the unperturbed measure μ0\mu_0 is statistically stable, meaning the map δμδ\delta \mapsto \mu_\delta is continuous at δ=0\delta = 0 in the appropriate topology. Furthermore, we establish explicit quantitative estimates for the modulus of continuity of μδ\mu_\delta in terms of the perturbation parameter δ\delta. Our results apply to a broad class of maps, including those semi-conjugate to classical examples such as the Gauss and L\"uroth maps.
