We explore some properties of Lyapunov exponents of measures preserved by smooth maps of the interval, and study the behaviour of the Lyapunov exponents under topological conjugacy.
We study the regularity of Lyapunov exponents for random linear cocycles taking values in $\Mat_m(\R)$ and driven by i.i.d. processes. Under three natural conditions - finite exponential moments, a spectral gap between the top two Lyapunov…
One knows that the set of quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger cocycles with positive Lyapunov exponent is open and dense in the analytic topology. In this paper, we construct cocycles with positive Lyapunov exponent which can be approximated by…
We characterize geometrically the Lyapunov exponents of a cocycle (of arbitrary rank) with respect to a harmonic current defined on a hyperbolic Riemann surface lamination. Our characterizations are formulated in terms of the expansion…
It has been recently realized that for abundant dynamical systems on a compact manifold, the set of points for which Lyapunov exponents fail to exist, called the Lyapunov irregular set, has positive Lebesgue measure. In the present paper,…
For a non-generic, yet dense subset of $C^1$ expanding Markov maps of the interval we prove the existence of uncountably many Lyapunov optimizing measures which are ergodic, fully supported and have positive entropy. These measures are…
We consider one-step cocycles of $2 \times 2$ matrices, and we are interested in their Lyapunov-optimizing measures, i.e., invariant probability measures that maximize or minimize a Lyapunov exponent. If the cocycle is dominated, that is,…
We exhibit an explicit sufficient condition for the Lyapunov exponents of a linear cocycle over a Markov map to have multiplicity 1. This builds on work of Guivarc'h-Raugi and Gol'dsheid-Margulis, who considered products of random matrices,…
In this paper we study the Lyapunov spectrum rigidity for random walks of expanding maps on unit circle $\mathbb{S}^1$ and Anosov diffeomorphisms on $d$-torus $\mathbb{T}^d$. Let $\nu$ be a probability supported on the set of expanding maps…
We show that the time-1 map of an Anosov flow, whose strong-unstable foliation is $C^2$ smooth and minimal, is $C^2$ close to a diffeomorphism having positive central Lyapunov exponent Lebesgue almost everywhere and a unique physical…
In this paper we establish uniform large deviations estimates of exponential type and H\"older continuity of the Lyapunov exponents for random non-invertible cocycles with constant rank.
We consider one-dimensional quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger operators with analytic potentials. In the positive Lyapunov exponent regime, we prove large deviation estimates which lead to optimal H\"older continuity of the Lyapunov exponents…
In this paper we first obtain a formula of averaged Lyapunov exponents for ergodic Szego cocycles via the Herman-Avila-Bochi formula. Then using acceleration, we construct a class of analytic quasi-periodic Szego cocycles with uniformly…
We study cocycles taking values in the mapping class group of closed surfaces and investigate their leading topological Lyapunov exponent. Under a natural closing property, we show that the top topological Lyapunov exponent can be…
According to a previous conjecture, spatial and temporal Lyapunov exponents of chaotic extended systems can be obtained from derivatives of a suitable function: the entropy potential. The validity and the consequences of this hypothesis are…
We show that the continuity property of Lyapunov exponents proved in \cite{BCS-Exponents} for smooth surface diffeomorphisms extends to smooth interval maps, in the case when the map only has non-flat critical points and the entropies…
In this paper we study ergodic optimization problems for typical cocycles. We consider one-step $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$-cocycles that satisfy pinching and twisting conditions. We prove that the Lyapunov maximizing measures have zero entropy…
We prove that the Lyapunov exponents of typical fiber bunched linear cocycles over Lorenz-like flows have multiplicity one: the set of exceptional cocycles has infinite codimention, i.e. it is locally contained in finite unions of closed…
We study discontinuity of the Lyapunov exponent. We construct a limit-periodic Schr\"odinger operator, of which the Lyapunov exponent has a positive measure set of discontinuities. We also show that the limit-periodic potentials, whose…
We consider linear cocycles over non-uniformly hyperbolic dynamical systems. The base system is a diffeomorphism $f$ of a compact manifold $X$ preserving a hyperbolic ergodic probability measure $\mu$. The cocycle $A$ over $f$ is Holder…
