In this paper we deal with an invariant ergodic hyperbolic measure $\mu$ for a diffeomorphism $f,$ assuming that $f$ it is either $C^{1+\alpha}$ or $f$ is $C^1$ and the Oseledec splitting of $\mu$ is dominated. We show that this system…

In 2007, Ye \& Zhang introduced a version of local topological entropy. Since their entropy function is, as we show under mild conditions, constant for topologically transitive dynamical systems, we propose to adjust the notion in a way…

Recently, M. Tsukamoto (New approach to weighted topological entropy and pressure, Ergod. Theory Dyn. Syst. 43 (2023) 1004-1034) used a new approach to define the weighted topological entropy and pressure. Inspired by his ideas, we…

We prove the existence of an ergodic measure with full Hausdorff dimension for a class of nonlinear nonconformal skew-product transformations. In order to do so we establish a variational principle for the topological pressure of certain…

The purpose of this paper is to generalize the variational principle, which states that the topological entropy is equal to the supremum of the measure theoretical entropies and also the minimum of the metric theoretical entropies, to…

In this paper we study different notions of entropy for measure-preserving dynamical systems defined on noncompact spaces. We see that some classical results for compact spaces remain partially valid in this setting. We define a new kind of…

The definitions of the temperature in the nonextensive statistical thermodynamics based on Tsallis entropy are analyzed. A definition of pressure is proposed for nonadditive systems by using a nonadditive effective volume. The…

We consider impulsive semiflows defined on compact metric spaces and deduce a variational principle. In particular, we generalize the classical notion of topological entropy to our setting of discontinuous semiflows.

We develop the convex-analytic structure of the thermodynamic formalism for continuous maps on compact metric spaces. The pressure functional is the Legendre-Fenchel transform of the negative entropy, and the biconjugate recovery of the…

Here we shall consider the topology and dynamics associated to a wide class of matchbox manifolds, including a large selection of tiling spaces and all minimal matchbox manifolds of dimension one. For such spaces we introduce topological…

We prove that a set of finite perimeter is indecomposable if and only if it is, up to a choice of suitable representative, connected in the 1-fine topology. This gives a topological characterization of indecomposability which is new even in…

The topological pressure is evaluated for a dilute random Lorentz gas, in the approximation that takes into account only uncorrelated collisions between the moving particle and fixed, hard sphere scatterers. The pressure is obtained…

The conventional definition of a topological metric over a space specifies properties that must be obeyed by any measure of "how separated" two points in that space are. Here it is shown how to extend that definition, and in particular the…
