We show the existence and uniqueness of the maximal entropy probability measure for partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms which are semi-conjugate to nonuniformly expanding maps. Using the theory of projective metric on cones we then prove…
We show that the non-additivity relation of the Tsallis entropies in nonextensive statistical mechanics has a simple physical interpretation for systems with fluctuating temperature or fluctuating energy dissipation rate. We also show that…
Within its range of applicability, the Boltzmann equation seems unique in its capacity to accurately describe the transition from almost any initial state to a self-equilibrated thermal state. Using information-theoretic methods to rephrase…
We consider the meta-equilibrium state of a composite system made up of independent subsystems satisfying the additive form of external constraints, as recently discussed by Abe [Phys. Rev. E {\bf 63}, 061105 (2001)]. We derive the additive…
We introduce a number of new tools for the study of relatively hyperbolic groups. First, given a relatively hyperbolic group G, we construct a nice combinatorial Gromov hyperbolic model space acted on properly by G, which reflects the…
We present aspects of entropic functionals relatively recently introduced in Physics which are non-additive, in the conventional sense of the word, some of which have a power-law functional form. We use as an example among them, and to be…
Given a group G acting on a geodesic metric space, we consider a preferred collection of paths of the space -- a path system -- and study the spectrum of relative exponential growth rates and quotient exponential growth rates of the…
A well-known theorem of Lax and Wendroff states that if the sequence of approximate solutions to a system of hyperbolic conservation laws generated by a conservative consistent numerical scheme converges boundedly a.e. as the mesh parameter…
In [52], Parmenter and Pollicott establish an abstract criterion that gives a geometric construction of equilibrium states for a class of partially hyperbolic systems. We refine their criterion to cover a much broader class of…
We develop the foundations of the theory of quasi-visual approximations of bounded metric spaces. Roughly speaking, these are sequences of covers of a given space for which the diameters of the sets in the covers shrink to zero and for…
Power-law sensitivity to initial conditions, characterizing the behaviour of dynamical systems at their critical points (where the standard Liapunov exponent vanishes), is studied in connection with the family of nonlinear 1D logistic-like…
A multi-parametric version of the nonadditive entropy $S_{q}$ is introduced. This new entropic form, denoted by $S_{a,b,r}$, possesses many interesting statistical properties, and it reduces to the entropy $S_q$ for $b=0$, $a=r:=1-q$ (hence…
Increasing the number $N$ of elements of a system typically makes the entropy to increase. The question arises on {\it what particular entropic form} we have in mind and {\it how it increases} with $N$. Thermodynamically speaking it makes…
In this note we deconstruct and explore the components of a theorem of Carrasco Piaggio, which relates Ahlfors regular conformal gauge of a compact doubling metric space to weights on Gromov-hyperbolic fillings of the metric space. We…
We study the intrinsic geometry of area minimizing (and also of almost minimizing) hypersurfaces from a new point of view by relating this subject to quasiconformal geometry. For any such hypersurface we define and construct a so-called…
We study $C^1$-robustly transitive and nonhyperbolic diffeomorphisms having a partially hyperbolic splitting with one-dimensional central bundle whose strong un-/stable foliations are both minimal. {In dimension $3$, an important class of…
We analyse the Jackiw-Teitelboim model of 2D gravity coupled to $N$ massless free scalar fields in the semi-classical limit. Two systems are studied which essentially differ in the boundary conditions that are imposed. We find that the…
A Type-I model of a multicomponent system of fluids with non-constant temperature is derived as the high-friction limit of a Type-II model via a Chapman-Enskog expansion. The asymptotic model is shown to fit into the general theory of…
We introduce a Riemannian metric on certain hyperbolic components in the moduli space of degree $d \ge 2$ polynomials. Our metric is constructed by considering the measure-theoretic entropy of a polynomial with respect to some equilibrium…
Let N be a manifold (with boundary) of dimension at least 3, such that its interior admits a hyperbolic metric of finite volume. We discuss the possible limits arising from sequences of relative fundamental cycles approximating the…
