We obtain the following dichotomy for accessible partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms of 3-dimensional manifolds having compact center leaves: either there is a unique entropy maximizing measure, this measure has the Bernoulli property and…
In our derivation of the second law of thermodynamics from the relation of adiabatic accessibility of equilibrium states we stressed the importance of being able to scale a system's size without changing its intrinsic properties. This…
In this work we study the class of mostly expanding partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms. We prove that such class is $C^r$-open, $r>1$, among the partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms (in the narrow sense) and we prove that the mostly…
We analyze a class of deformations of Anosov diffeomorphisms: these $C^0$-small, but $C^1$-macroscopic deformations break the topological conjugacy class but leave the high entropy dynamics unchanged. More precisely, there is a partial…
We introduce first-time sensitivity for a homeomorphism of a compact metric space, that is a condition on the first increasing times of open balls of the space. Continuum-wise expansive homeomorphisms, the shift map on the Hilbert cube, and…
Different notions of entropy play a fundamental role in the classical theory of dynamical systems. Unlike many other concepts used to analyze autonomous dynamics, both measure-theoretic and topological entropy can be extended quite…
We introduce the notion of tubular dimension, and give a formula for it. As an application we show that every invariant measure of a $C^{1+\gamma}$ diffeomorphism of a closed Riemannian manifold admits an asymptotic local product structure…
In this work we exhibit a new criteria for ergodicity of diffeomorphisms involving conditions on Lyapunov exponents and general position of some invariant manifolds. On one hand we derive uniqueness of SRB-measures for transitive surface…
We consider classes of diffeomorphisms of Euclidean space with partial asymptotic expansions at infinity; the remainder term lies in a weighted Sobolev space whose properties at infinity fit with the desired application. We show that two…
In this paper we use complex techniques to study the structure of real Henon diffeomorphisms of maximal topological entropy.
We characterize the maximal entropy measures of partially hyperbolic C^2 diffeomorphisms whose center foliations form circle bundles, by means of suitable finite sets of saddle points, that we call skeletons. In the special case of…
We improve both dimension compression and expansion bounds for homeomorphisms with $p$-exponentially integrable distortion. To the first direction we also introduce estimates for the compression multifractal spectra, which will be used to…
A classical problem in dynamical systems is to measure the complexity of a map in terms of their orbits. One of the main tools we have to achieve this goal is entropy. However, many interesting families of dynamical systems have every…
We show that any conservative partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism homotopic to the identity is accessible unless the fundamental group of its ambient 3-manifold is virtually solvable. As a consequence, such diffeomorphisms are ergodic,…
In this paper, we show that for several interesting systems beyond uniform hyperbolicity, any generic continuous function has a unique maximizing measure with zero entropy. In some cases, we also know that the maximizing measure has full…
We obtain a characterization of two classes of dynamics with nonuniformly hyperbolic behavior in terms of an admissibility property. Namely, we consider exponential dichotomies with respect to a sequence of norms and nonuniformly hyperbolic…
We show that the previously introduced concept of distance on statistical spaces leads to a straightforward definition of differential entropy on these statistical spaces. These spaces are characterized by the fact that their points can…
In this paper we provide two new characterizations of real hyperbolic $n$-space using the Poincar\'e exponent of a discrete group and the volume growth entropy. The first characterization is in the space of Hilbert metrics and generalizes a…
The thesis is devoted to abstract, geometric and symmetric aspects of modern elementary particle theories. A new direction in constructing supersymmetric and superstring models based on consequent and strong consideration and inclusion of…
In the spirit of topological entropy we introduce new complexity functions for general dynamical systems (namely groups and semigroups acting on closed manifolds) but with an emphasis on the dynamics induced on simplicial complexes. For…
