Let M be a closed symplectic manifold, and let | | be a norm on the space of all smooth functions on M, which are zero-mean normalized with respect to the canonical volume form. We show that if | | is dominated from above by the…

We establish a general criterion on the upper semi-continuity of partial entropy in all directions for $C^{1+\alpha}$ diffeomorphisms: it holds when the respective sums of Lyapunov exponents are continuous. This addresses, in arbitrary…

Let $f:M\to M$ be a $C^{1+\epsilon}$-map on a smooth Riemannian manifold $M$ and let $\Lambda\subset M$ be a compact $f$-invariant locally maximal set. In this paper we obtain several results concerning the distribution of the periodic…

We consider the open set constructed by M. Shub in [42] of partially hyperbolic skew products on the space $\mathbb{T}^2\times \mathbb{T}^2$ whose non-wandering set is not stable. We show that there exists an open set $\mathcal{U}$ of such…

We study the entropy and Lyapunov exponents of invariant measures $\mu$ for smooth surface diffeomorphisms $f$, as functions of $(f,\mu)$. The main result is an inequality relating the discontinuities of these functions. One consequence is…

We prove the finiteness of ergodic measures of maximal entropy for partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms where the center direction has a dominated decomposition into one dimensional bundle and there is a uniform lower bound for the absolute…

In this mainly expository paper we present a detailed proof of several results contained in a paper by M. Bertelson and M. Gromov on Dynamical Morse Entropy. This is an introduction to the ideas presented in that work. Suppose $M$ is…

Let $\Diff^{ r}_m(M)$ be the set of $C^{ r}$ volume-preserving diffeomorphisms on a compact Riemannian manifold $M$ ($\dim M\geq 2$). In this paper, we prove that the diffeomorphisms without zero Lyapunov exponents on a set of positive…

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…

We prove that for some manifolds $M$ the set of robustly transitive partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms of $M$ with one-dimensional nonhyperbolic centre direction contains a $C^1$-open and dense subset of diffeomorphisms with nonhyperbolic…

This Part develops structural consequences of the thermodynamic formalism for Axiom A diffeomorphisms. The Pesin Entropy Formula equates the metric entropy of the SRB measure to the sum of positive Lyapunov exponents, with complete proofs…

We prove that the (necessarily existing) pseudo-physical or SRB-like measures of C1 expanding dynamical systems on a compact Riemannian manifold satisfy Pesin entropy formula. We include examples of C1 (non C1 plus Holder) expanding maps on…

We prove that every C1 diffeomorphism away from homoclinic tangencies is entropy expansive, with locally uniform expansivity constant. Consequently, such diffeomorphisms satisfy Shub's entropy conjecture: the entropy is bounded from below…

In the uniformly hyperbolic setting it is well known that the set of all measures supported on periodic orbits is dense in the convex space of all invariant measures. In this paper we consider the converse question, in the non-uniformly…

One dimensional intermittent maps with stretched exponential separation of nearby trajectories are considered. When time goes infinity the standard Lyapunov exponent is zero. We investigate the distribution of $\lambda_{\alpha}=…

In this paper we study the relationship between Lyapunov exponents and the induced map on cohomology for $C^{1}-$diffeomorphisms on compact manifolds. We show that if the induced map on cohomology has spectral radius strictly larger than 1,…
