We prove that stable ergodicity is C r open and dense among conservative partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms with one-dimensional center bundle, for all r in [2,infty]. The proof follows Pugh-Shub program: among conservative partially…
In the present paper we give a positive answer to a question posed by Viana on the existence of positive Lyapunov exponents for symplectic cocycles. Actually, we prove that for an open and dense set of Holder symplectic cocycles over a…
We consider the class of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms on a closed 3-manifold with quasi-isometric center. Under the non-wandering condition, we prove that the diffeomorphisms are accessible if there is no $su$-torus. As a…
In a wide class of physical systems, diffeomorphisms in the state space leave the amount of entropy produced per unit time inside the bulk of the system unaffected [M. Polettini et al., 12th Joint European Thermodynamics Conference,…
In [Discrete Contin. Dyn. Syst. \textbf{15} (2006), no. 3, 811--818.] Xia introduced a simple dynamical density basis for partially hyperbolic sets of volume preserving diffeomorphisms. We apply the density basis to the study of the…
By using the variational approach, we prove the existence of Sinai-Ruelle-Bowen measures for partially hyperbolic $\mathcal C^1$ diffeomorphisms with mostly expanding properties. The same conclusion holds true if one considers a dominated…
We study the simplicity of the Lyapunov spectrum of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms. We prove that a class of volume-preserving partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms is $C^r$-accumulated by $C^2$-open sets with simple spectrum. Also we…
Blenders are special hyperbolic sets used to produce various robust dynamical phenomena which appear fragile at first glance. We prove for $C^r$ diffeomorphisms ($r=2,\dots,\infty,\omega$) that blenders naturally exist (without…
In this paper we improve the results of \cite{MT} and show that a weak hyperbolic transitivity implies the uniqueness of hyperbolic SRB measures. As an important corollary, it arises the ergodicity of the system in a conservative setting.…
For every $r\in\mathbb{N}_{\geq 2}\cup\{\infty\}$, we prove a $C^r$-orbit connecting lemma for dynamically coherent and plaque expansive partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms with 1-dimensional orientation preserving center bundle. To be…
Lyapunov exponent is widely used in natural science to find chaotic signal, but its existence is seldom discussed. In the present paper, we consider the problem of whether the set of points at which Lyapunov exponent fails to exist, called…
We construct a family of shift spaces with almost specification and multiple measures of maximal entropy. This answers a question from Climenhaga and Thompson [Israel J. Math. 192 (2012), no. 2, 785--817]. Elaborating on our examples we…
We present an example of a $\mathcal{C}^1$-robustly transitive skew-product with non-trivial, non-hyperbolic action on homology. The example is conservative, ergodic, non-uniformly hyperbolic and its fiber directions cannot be decomposed…
We continue our study of the dynamics of mappings with small topological degree on (projective) complex surfaces. Previously, under mild hypotheses, we have constructed an ergodic ``equilibrium'' measure for each such mapping. Here we study…
In this work we address the problem of existence and uniqueness (finiteness) of ergodic equilibrium states for partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms isotopic to Anosov on $\mathbb{T}^4$, with 2-dimensional center foliation. To do so we…
We prove that a partially hyperbolic attracting set for a C2 vector field, having slow recurrence to equilibria, supports an ergodic physical/SRB measure if, and only if, the trapping region admits non-uniform sectional expansion on a…
We show there is a residual set of non-Anosov $C^{\infty}$ Axiom A diffeomorphisms with the no cycles property whose elements have trivial centralizer. If $M$ is a surface and $2\leq r\leq \infty$, then we will show there exists an open and…
In this article we prove that for a diffeomorphism on a compact Riemannian manifold, if there is a nontrival homoclinic class that is not uniformly hyperbolic or the diffeomorphism is a $C^{1+\alpha}$ and there is a hyperbolic ergodic…
We consider partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms on compact manifolds where the unstable and stable foliations stably carry some unique non-trivial homologies. We prove the following two results: if the center foliation is one dimensional,…
We prove that in the isotopy class of any volume preserving partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism in a $3$-dimensional manifold, there is a non-partially hyperbolic stably ergodic diffeomorphism. In particular, we provide new examples of…
