For a rational map $f$ and a H\"older continuous potential $\phi$ satisfying $$ \sup\phi< P(f,\phi)$$ the uniqueness and stochastic properties of the corresponding equilibrium states have been extensively studied. For a given rational map…
Let $f:I \to I$ be a $C^2$ multimodal interval map satisfying polynomial growth of the derivatives along critical orbits. We prove the existence and uniqueness of equilibrium states for the potential $\phi_t:x\mapsto -t\log|Df(x)|$ for $t$…
Assume that $(X,f)$ is a dynamical system and $\phi:X \to [-\infty, \infty)$ is a potential such that the $f$-invariant measure $\mu_\phi$ equivalent to $\phi$-conformal measure is infinite, but that there is an inducing scheme $F = f^\tau$…
It is well-known that for expansive maps and continuous potential functions, the specification property (for the map) and the Bowen property (for the potential) together imply the existence of a unique equilibrium state. We consider…
We develop the specification and orbit-decomposition approach to equilibrium states for parabolic rational maps of the Riemann Sphere. Our result extends the well-known results on uniqueness of equilibrium states in this setting, notably…
We introduce a class of continuous maps f of a compact metric space I admitting inducing schemes and describe the tower constructions associated with them. We then establish a thermodynamical formalism, i.e., describe a class of real-valued…
Let $L:[0,1]\setminus\{d\}\rightarrow [0,1]$ be a one-dimensional Lorenz like expanding map ($d$ is the point of discontinuity), $\mathcal{P}=\{ (0,d),(d,1) \}$ be a partition of $[0,1]$ and $C^{\alpha}([0,1],\mathcal{P})$ the set of…
We consider a one--particle bound quantum mechanical system governed by a Schr\"odinger operator $\mathscr{H} = -\Delta + v\,f(r)$, where $f(r)$ is an attractive central potential, and $v>0$ is a coupling parameter. If $\phi \in…
We consider the class of integral operators $Q_\f$ on $L^2(\R_+)$ of the form $(Q_\f f)(x)=\int_0^\be\f (\max\{x,y\})f(y)dy$. We discuss necessary and sufficient conditions on $\phi$ to insure that $Q_{\phi}$ is bounded, compact, or in the…
In this article, we consider a class of finite rank perturbations of Toeplitz operators that have simple eigenvalues on the unit circle. Under a suitable assumption on the behavior of the essential spectrum, we show that such operators are…
We consider the dynamics of skew product maps associated with finitely generated semigroups of rational maps on the Riemann sphere. We show that under some conditions on the dynamics and the potential function \psi, there exists a unique…
We prove a random Ruelle--Perron--Frobenius theorem and the existence of relative equilibrium states for a class of random open and closed interval maps, without imposing transitivity requirements, such as mixing and covering conditions,…
We study systems of globally coupled interval maps, where the identical individual maps have two expanding, fractional linear, onto branches, and where the coupling is introduced via a parameter - common to all individual maps - that…
In this paper, we use the thermodynamical formalism to show that there exists a unique equilibrium state $\mu_\phi$ for each expanding Thurston map $f: S^2\rightarrow S^2$ together with a real-valued H\"older continuous potential $\phi$.…
We apply the effective potential method to study the vacuum stability of the bounded from above $(-\phi^{6})$ (unstable) quantum field potential. The stability ($\partial E/\partial b=0)$ and the mass renormalization ($\partial^{2}…

Given an one-dimensional Lorenz-like expanding map we prove that the condition\linebreak $P_{top}(\phi,\partial \mathcal{P},\ell)<P_{top}(\phi,\ell)$ (see, subsection 2.4 for definition), introduced by Buzzi and Sarig in [1] is satisfied…
We study a class of potentials $f$ on one sided full shift spaces over finite or countable alphabets, called potentials of product type. We obtain explicit formulae for the leading eigenvalue, the eigenfunction (which may be discontinuous)…
We study geodesic flows over compact rank 1 manifolds and prove that sufficiently regular potential functions have unique equilibrium states if the singular set does not carry full pressure. In dimension 2, this proves uniqueness for scalar…
Given a multimodal interval map $f:I \to I$ and a H\"older potential $\phi:I \to \mathbb{R}$, we study the dimension spectrum for equilibrium states of $\phi$. The main tool here is inducing schemes, used to overcome the presence of…
