Since the 1970s there has been a rich theory of equilibrium states over shift spaces associated to H\"older-continuous real-valued potentials. The construction of equilibrium states associated to matrix-valued potentials is much more…
We show that every totally ergodic generalised matrix equilibrium state is psi-mixing with respect to the natural partition into cylinders and hence is measurably isomorphic to a Bernoulli shift in its natural extension. This implies that…
It follows from Oseledec Multiplicative Ergodic Theorem that the Lyapunov-irregular set of points for which the Oseledec averages of a given continuous cocycle diverge has zero measure with respect to any invariant probability measure. In…
In this paper, we study ergodic features of invariant measures for the partially hyperbolic horseshoe at the boundary of uniformly hyperbolic diffeomorphisms constructed in \cite{DHRS07}. Despite the fact that the non-wandering set is a…
For dynamical systems satisfying the approximate $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ or $\mathbb{Z}_+^{d}$-product property and asymptotically entropy expansiveness, we establish a precise description of the structure of their space of invariant measures. In…
In this article, we continue the structural study of factor maps betweeen symbolic dynamical systems and the relative thermodynamic formalism. Here, one is studying a factor map from a shift of finite type $X$ (equipped with a potential…
For a large class of transitive non-hyperbolic systems, we construct nonhyperbolic ergodic measures with entropy arbitrarily close to its maximal possible value. The systems we consider are partially hyperbolic with one-dimension central…
Let $\{M_i\}_{i=1}^\ell$ be a non-trivial family of $d\times d$ complex matrices, in the sense that for any $n\in \N$, there exists $i_1... i_n\in \{1,..., \ell\}^n$ such that $M_{i_1}... M_{i_n}\neq {\bf 0}$. Let $P \colon (0,\infty)\to…
In this paper we study the ergodic theory of a class of symbolic dynamical systems $(\O, T, \mu)$ where $T:{\O}\to \O$ the left shift transformation on $\O=\prod_0^\infty\{0,1\}$ and $\mu$ is a $\s$-finite $T$-invariant measure having the…
In the variational approach to statistical mechanics, equilibrium states are the rigorous analogues of thermodynamic phases; the question of which invariant measures can arise as equilibrium states is therefore the question of which phases…
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…
We construct equilibrium states, including measures of maximal entropy, for a large (open) class of non-uniformly expanding maps on compact manifolds. Moreover, we study uniqueness of these equilibrium states, as well as some of their…
We study the ergodic properties of a class of measures on $\Sigma^{\mathbb{Z}}$ for which $\mu_{\mathcal{A},t}[x_{0}\cdots x_{n-1}]\approx e^{-nP}\left \|A_{x_{0}}\cdots A_{x_{n-1}}\right \| ^{t}$, where $\mathcal{A}=(A_{0}, \ldots ,…
For an ergodic hyperbolic measure $\omega$ of a $C^{1+{\alpha}}$ diffeomorphism, there is an $\omega$ full-measured set $\tilde\Lambda$ such that every nonempty, compact and connected subset $V$ of $\mathbb{M}_{inv}(\tilde\Lambda)$…
In the framework of statistical mechanics the properties of macroscopic systems are deduced starting from the laws of their microscopic dynamics. One of the key assumptions in this procedure is the ergodic property, namely the equivalence…
Equilibrium states for geodesic flows over closed rank 1 manifolds were studied recently by Burns, Climenhaga, Fisher and Thompson. For sufficiently regular potentials, it was shown that if the singular set does not carry full pressure then…
This paper is concerned with the ergodic subspaces of the state spaces of isolated quantum systems. We prove a new ergodic theorem for closed quantum systems which shows that the equilibrium state of the system takes the form of a grand…
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…
Using a model Hamiltonian for a single-mode electromagnetic field interacting with a nonlinear medium, we show that quantum expectation values of subsystem observables can exhibit remarkably diverse ergodic properties even when the dynamics…
We study a class of dynamical systems generated by random substitutions, which contains both intrinsically ergodic systems and instances with several measures of maximal entropy. In this class, we show that the measures of maximal entropy…
