We prove a finite smooth version of the entropic continuity of Lyapunov exponents of Buzzi-Crovisier-Sarig for $C^\infty$ surface diffeomorphisms [9]. As a consequence we show that any $C^r$, $r > 1$, smooth surface diffeomorphism $f$ with…

We study spectral properties of the self-affine measure $\mu_{M,\mathcal {D}}$ generated by an expanding integer matrix $M\in M_n(\mathbb{Z})$ and a consecutive collinear digit set $\mathcal {D}=\{0,1,\dots,q-1\}v$ where $v\in…

This paper gives a review of the recent progress in the study of Fourier bases and Fourier frames on self-affine measures. In particular, we emphasize the new matrix analysis approach for checking the completeness of a mutually orthogonal…

Let ${\bf M}=(M_1,\ldots, M_k)$ be a tuple of real $d\times d$ matrices. Under certain irreducibility assumptions, we give checkable criteria for deciding whether ${\bf M}$ possesses the following property: there exist two constants…

We study self-similar measures in $\mathbb{R}$ satisfying the weak separation condition along with weak technical assumptions which are satisfied in all known examples. For such a measure $\mu$, we show that there is a finite set of concave…

In this paper we study the relationship between Lyapunov exponents and the induced map on cohomology for $C^{1}-$diffeomorphisms on compact manifolds. We show that if the induced map on cohomology has spectral radius strictly larger than 1,…

We construct an invariant measure for a piecewise analytic interval map whose Lyapunov exponent is not defined. Moreover, for a set of full measure, the pointwise Lyapunov exponent is not defined. This map has a Lorenz-like singularity and…

In this paper, we establish new geometric rigidity results through the study of Lyapunov exponent level sets via invariant measures. First, we prove that for a manifold $M$ without focal points, if the zero Lyapunov exponent level set has…

We introduce and study the Lyapunov numbers -- quantitative measures of the sensitivity of a dynamical system $(X,f)$ given by a compact metric space $X$ and a continuous map $f:X \to X$. In particular, we prove that for a minimal…

In this paper we consider diagonally affine, planar IFS $\Phi=\left\{S_i(x,y)=(\alpha_ix+t_{i,1},\beta_iy+t_{i,2})\right\}_{i=1}^m$. Combining the techniques of Hochman and Feng, Hu we compute the Hausdorff dimension of the self-affine…

In this paper we prove disintegration results for self-conformal measures and affinely irreducible self-similar measures. The measures appearing in the disintegration resemble self-conformal/self-similar measures for iterated function…

This paper relates to the Fourier decay properties of images of self-similar measures $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^k$ under nonlinear smooth maps $f \colon \mathbb{R}^k \to \mathbb{R}$. For example, we prove that if the linear parts of the…

We prove the existence of weak solutions to McKean-Vlasov SDEs defined on a domain $D \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ with continuous and unbounded coefficients that satisfy Lyapunov type conditions, where the Lyapunov function may depend on…

An important consequence of the theory of entropy of Z-actions is that the events measurable with respect to the far future coincide (modulo null sets) with those measurable with respect to the distant past, and that measuring the entropy…

For any self-similar measure $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}$, we show that the distribution of $\mu$ is controlled by products of non-negative matrices governed by a finite or countable graph depending only on the IFS. This generalizes the net…

We study $L^q$-spectra of planar self-affine measures generated by diagonal systems with an emphasis on providing closed form expressions. We answer a question posed by Fraser in 2016 in the negative by proving that a certain natural closed…

We introduce the \emph{metric spectrum}, which measures the exponential rate of approximation to an isolated invariant set of points starting in its stable set, and relate it to the Lyapunov spectrum. We determine the metric spectrum of…

The sub-additive pressure function $P(s)$ for an affine iterated function system (IFS) and the affinity dimension, defined as the unique solution $s_0$ to $P(s_0)=1$, were introduced by K. Falconer in his seminal 1988 paper on self-affine…

Given any compact connected manifold $M$, we describe $C^2$-open sets of iterated functions systems (IFS's) admitting fully-supported ergodic measures whose Lyapunov exponents along $M$ are all zero. Moreover, these measures are…

We study the dimension of the attractor and quasi-Bernoulli measures of parametrized families of iterated function systems of non-conformal and non-affine maps. We introduce a transversality condition under which, relying on a weak…
