Iommi & Kiwi showed that the Lyapunov spectrum of an expanding map need not be concave, and posed various problems concerning the possible number of inflection points. In this paper we answer a conjecture of Iommi & Kiwi by proving that the…
In this note we study the multifractal spectrum of Lyapunov exponents for interval maps with infinitely many branches and a parabolic fixed point. It turns out that, in strong contrast with the hyperbolic case, the domain of the spectrum is…
In this paper, we study the multifractal analysis for Markov-R\'{e}nyi maps, which form a canonical class of piecewise differentiable interval maps, with countably many branches and may contain a parabolic fixed point simultaneously, and do…
For any integer $r$ with $1\leq r<\infty$, we present a one-parameter family $F_\sigma$ $(0<\sigma<1)$ of 2-dimensional piecewise $\mathcal C^r$ expanding maps such that each $F_\sigma$ has an observable (i.e. Lebesgue positive) Lyapunov…
In this short note we describe a simple but remarkably effective method for rigorously estimating Lyapunov exponents for expanding maps of the interval. We illustrate the applicability of this method with some standard examples.
This paper provides a first example of constructing Lyapunov functions in a class of piecewise linear systems with limit cycles. The method of construction helps analyze and control complex oscillating systems through novel geometric means.…
Chaotic dynamics with sensitive dependence on initial conditions may result in exponential decay of correlation functions. We show that for one-dimensional interval maps the corresponding quantities, that is, Lyapunov exponents and…

A Path-Complete Lyapunov Function is an algebraic criterion composed of a finite number of functions, called its pieces, and a directed, labeled graph defining Lyapunov inequalities between these pieces. It provides a stability certificate…
We study multifractal decompositions based on Birkhoff averages for sequences of functions belonging to certain classes of symbolically continuous functions. We do this for an expanding interval map with countably many branches, which we…
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 investigate multifractal decompositions based on values of Birkhoff averages of functions from a class of symbolically continuous functions. This will be done for an expanding interval map with infinitely many branches and…
The problem of estimating the maximum Lyapunov exponents of the motion in a multiplet of interacting nonlinear resonances is considered for the case when the resonances have comparable strength. The corresponding theoretical approaches are…
In this paper we show that for each $n$, there exists a simple graph whose reliability polynomial has at least $n$ inflection points.
For a smooth expanding circle map, we show that the empirical distribution of Lyapunov exponents of periodic points of any fixed period is close to normal, with an error that decreases as the period grows. This establishes a version of the…
We consider the first order periodic systems perturbed by a $2N\ts 2N$ matrix-valued periodic potential on the real line. The spectrum of this operator is absolutely continuous and consists of intervals separated by gaps. We define the…
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,…
We consider a smooth expanding map g on the circle of degree 2. It is known that the Lyapunov exponent of g with respect to the unique invariant measure that is absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure is positive and less…
