We study generic volume-preserving diffeomorphisms on compact manifolds. We show that the following property holds generically in the $C^1$ topology: Either there is at least one zero Lyapunov exponent at almost every point, or the set of…

We observe that under certain conditions on the Lyapunov exponents a semi-invertible cocycle is, indeed, invertible. As a consequence, if a semi-invertible cocycle generated by a H\"{o}lder continuous map $A:M\to M(d, \mathbb{R})$ over a…

Let $f$ be a $C^r$$(r>1)$ diffeomorphism of a compact Riemannian manifold $M$, preserving an ergodic hyperbolic measure $\mu$ with positive entropy, and let $\mathcal{A}$ be a H\"older continuous cocycle of injective bounded linear…

Anosov representations of word hyperbolic groups into higher-rank semisimple Lie groups are representations with finite kernel and discrete image that have strong analogies with convex cocompact representations into rank-one Lie groups.…

We prove that the cohomology of semi-simple Lie groups admits boundary values, which are measurable cocycles on the Furstenberg boundary. This generalises known invariants such as the Maslov index on Shilov boundaries, the Euler class on…

Anosov representations give a higher-rank analogue of convex cocompactness in a rank-one Lie group which shares many of its good geometric and dynamical properties; geometric finiteness in rank one may be seen as a controlled weakening of…

We prove the finiteness of ergodic measures of maximal entropy for partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms where the center direction has a dominated decomposition into one dimensional bundle and there is a uniform lower bound for the absolute…

The celebrated Oseledets theorem \cite{O}, building over seminal works of Furstenberg and Kesten on random products of matrices and random variables taking values on non-compact semisimple Lie groups \cite{FK,Furstenberg}, ensures that the…

In the present paper we give a positive answer to some questions posed by Viana on the existence of positive Lyapunov exponents for Hamiltonian linear differential systems. We prove that there exists an open and dense set of Hamiltonian…

We prove that there is a residual subset $\mathcal{S}$ in $\text{Diff}^1(M)$ such that, for every $f\in \mathcal{S}$, any homoclinic class of $f$ with invariant one dimensional central bundle containing saddles of different indices (i.e.…

We consider group-valued cocycles over dynamical systems. The base system is a homeomorphism $f$ of a metric space satisfying a closing property, for example a hyperbolic dynamical system or a subshift of finite type. The cocycle $A$ takes…

We demonstrate the existence of an open dense subset within the class of real analytic one-frequency quasi-periodic $\mathrm{\Sp}(4,\mathbb{R})$-cocycles, characterized by either the distinctness of all their Lyapunov exponents or the…

We present an example of a discontinuity point for the Lyapunov exponents when viewed as a function of the cocycle in a topology finer than the $C^0$-topology. The linear cocycle taking values in SL(2,R) is locally constant, defined over a…

For infinite-dimensional quasi-compact cocycles over a map satisfying a certain closing condition, we show that periodic orbits carry enough information to guarantee the existence of a dominated splitting. More precisely, we establish that…
