We consider a class of piecewise smooth one-dimensional maps with critical points and singularities (possibly with infinite derivative). Under mild summability conditions on the growth of the derivative on critical orbits, we prove the…

Let $P: \F \times \F \to \F$ be a polynomial of bounded degree over a finite field $\F$ of large characteristic. In this paper we establish the following dichotomy: either $P$ is a moderate asymmetric expander in the sense that $|P(A,B)|…

We show that for a very wide class of Banach spaces of functions on [0,1] there are intrinsic lower bounds for the essential spectral radius of the transfer operator associated to piecewise smooth expanding maps. The class of Banach spaces…

An invertible dynamical system with some hyperbolic structure is considered. Upper estimates for the correlations of continuous observables is given in terms of modulus of continuity. The result is applied to certain H\'enon maps and…

We give a general method of deriving statistical limit theorems, such as the central limit theorem and its functional version, in the setting of ergodic measure preserving transformations. This method is applicable in situations where the…

We prove a local limit theorem for Lipschitz continuous observables on a weakly coupled lattice of piecewise expanding interval maps. The core of the paper is a proof that the spectral radii of the Fourier-transfer operators for such a…

We consider $L$-$\omega$-nonexpansive maps $T\colon K\to K$ on a convex subset $K$ of a Banach space $X$, i.e., maps in which $\omega_T(\delta)\leq L\delta +\omega(\delta)$ with $L\in [0,1]$, $\omega$ being a modulus of continuity and…

We consider the transfer operators of non-uniformly expanding maps for potentials of various regularity, and show that a specific property of potentials ("flatness") implies a Ruelle-Perron-Frobenius Theorem and a decay of the transfer…

We establish a version of the Pommerenke-Levin-Yoccoz inequality for the modulus of a polynomial-like restriction of a global polynomial and give two applications. First it is shown that if the modulus of a polynomial-like restriction of an…

We prove a couple of results on local continuous extension of proper holomorphic maps $F:D \rightarrow \Omega$, $D, \Omega \varsubsetneq \mathbb{C}^n$, making local assumptions on $\partial{D}$ and $\partial{\Omega}$. The first result…

We study 1-dimensional coupled map lattices consisting of diffusively coupled Tchebyscheff maps of N-th order. For small coupling constants a we determine the invariant 1-point and 2-point densities of these nonhyperbolic systems in a…

We consider transformations preserving a contracting foliation, such that the associated quotient map satisfies a Lasota-Yorke inequality. We prove that the associated transfer operator, acting on suitable normed spaces, has a spectral gap…

This paper introduces a class of polynomial maps in Euclidean spaces, investigates the conditions under which there exist Smale horseshoes and uniformly hyperbolic invariant sets, studies the chaotic dynamical behavior and strange…

We obtain large deviation results for non-uniformly expanding maps with non-flat singularities or criticalities and for partially hyperbolic non-uniformly expanding attracting sets. That is, given a continuous function we consider its space…

In this paper, we prove first that the iterates of a mean nonexpansive map defined on a weakly compact, convex set converge weakly to a fixed point in the presence of Opial's property and asymptotic regularity at a point. Next, we prove the…

We prove the existence of a fixed point for mappings which satisfy some asymptotic nonexpansive conditions in Banach spaces which are either nearly uniformly convex or they satisfy that asymptotic centers of bounded sequences are compact.…

For a map of the unit interval with an indifferent fixed point, we prove an upper bound for the variance of all observables of $n$ variables $K:[0,1]^n\to\R$ which are componentwise Lipschitz. The proof is based on coupling and decay of…

This paper investigates the statistical properties of random open dynamical systems generated by families of Lasota--Yorke maps. Open systems, in which trajectories may escape through `holes', model transient phenomena and present…

We consider a class of endomorphisms which contains a set of piecewise partially hyperbolic skew-products with a non-uniformly expanding base map. The aimed transformation preserves a foliation which is almost everywhere uniformly…

We study decay of correlations, the asymptotic distribution of hitting times and fluctuations of the return times for a robust class of multidimensional non-uniformly hyperbolic transformations. Oliveira and Viana [15] proved that there is…
