Let $M=G/K$ be a generalized flag manifold, that is the adjoint orbit of a compact semisimple Lie group $G$. We use the variational approach to find invariant Einstein metrics for all flag manifolds with two isotropy summands. We also…
We study the structure of invariant measures for continuous automorphisms of compact metrizable abelian groups satisfying the descending chain condition. We show that the finitely supported invariant measures are weak-* dense in the space…
Several important conjectures in Fractal Geometry can be summarised as follows: If the dimension of a self-similar measure in $\mathbb{R}$ does not equal its expected value, then the underlying iterated function system contains an exact…
In this paper we study ergodic optimization problems for subadditive sequences of functions on a topological dynamical system. We prove that for $t\rightarrow \infty$ any accumulation point of a family of equilibrium states is a maximizing…
We show that the time-1 map of an Anosov flow, whose strong-unstable foliation is $C^2$ smooth and minimal, is $C^2$ close to a diffeomorphism having positive central Lyapunov exponent Lebesgue almost everywhere and a unique physical…
Let M be a surface and R an involution in M whose set of fixed points is a submanifold with dimension 1 and such that R is an isometry. We will show that there is a residual subset of C1 area-preserving R-reversible diffeomorphisms which…
We prove that for ergodic measures with large entropy have long unstable manifolds for $C^\infty$ surface diffeomorphisms. Specifically, for any $\alpha>0$, there exist constants $\beta>0$ and $c>0$ such that for every ergodic measure $\mu$…
This paper introduces an intrinsic theory of Thermodynamic Formalism for Iterated Functions Systems with general positive continuous weights (IFSw).We study the spectral properties of the Transfer and Markov operators and one of our first…
We study the one-dimensional expanding Lorenz maps and show the existence of dense subset D of Lorens maps such that each f in D has an uncountable set of ergodic invariant probabilities with infinite Lyapunov exponent and positive entropy.…
We study invariant sets and measures generated by iterated function systems defined on countable discrete spaces that are uniform grids of a finite dimension. The discrete spaces of this type can be considered as models of spaces in which…
It is proved that whenever a zero entropy dynamical system $(X,T)$ has only countably many ergodic measures and $\mu$ stands for the arithmetic M{\"o}bius function, then there exists a subset $A$ of integers depending only on the system, of…
We study order-preserving C^1-circle diffeomorphisms driven by irrational rotations with a Diophantine rotation number. We show that there is a non-empty open set of one-parameter families of such diffeomorphisms where the ergodic measures…
We study the moments of equilibrium measures for iterated function systems (IFSs) and draw connections to operator theory. Our main object of study is the infinite matrix which encodes all the moment data of a Borel measure on R^d or C. To…
We prove that the Lyapunov exponents, cosidered as functions of measures with non compact support, are semicontinuous with respect to the Wasserstein topology but not with respect to the weak* topology. Moreover, we prove that they are not…
The attractors of iterated function systems are usually obtained as the Hausdorff limit of any non-empty compact subset under iteration. In this note we show that an iterated function system on a boundedly compact metric space has compact,…
In this article, we combine the perspectives of density, entropy, and multifractal analysis to investigate the structure of ergodic measures. We prove that for each transitive topologically Anosov system $(X,f)$, each continuous function…
In this note we generalize our previous result, stating that if $(M_1,g_1)$ and $(M_2,g_2)$ are compact Riemannian manifolds, then any Einstein metric on the product $M:=M_1\times M_2$ of the form $g=e^{2f_1}g_1+e^{2f_2}g_2$, with $f_1\in…
We show that homogeneous Einstein metrics on Euclidean spaces are Einstein solvmanifolds, using that they admit periodic, integrally minimal foliations by homogeneous hypersurfaces. For the geometric flow induced by the orbit-Einstein…
For any continuous map f on a compact manifold M, we define the SRB-like (or observable) probabilities as a generalization of Sinai-Ruelle-Bowen (i.e. physical) measures. We prove that f has observable measures, even if SRB measures do not…
We study transitive step skew-product maps modeled over a complete shift of $k$, $k\ge2$, symbols whose fiber maps are defined on the circle and have intermingled contracting and expanding regions. These dynamics are genuinely nonhyperbolic…
