For a boundary-preserving partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism with interval central leaves, we completely characterize the $C^k$-robust transitivity $(k\geq 2)$ by boundary interconnection. As an application, if the boundary SRB measures…
Singular and sectional hyperbolic sets are the objects of the extension of the classical Smale Hyperbolic Theory to flows having invariant sets with singularities accumulated by regular orbits within the set. It is by now well-known that…
We prove that the unique SRB measure for a singular hyperbolic attractor depends continuously on the dynamics in the weak$^\ast$ topology.
We consider a smooth one-parameter family $t \to f_t$ of diffeomorphisms with compact transitive Axiom A attractors. Our first result (corrected) is that for any function $G$ in the Sobolev space $H^r_p$, with $p>1$ and $0<r<1/p$, the map…
Araujo proved in his thesis \cite{A} that a $C^1$ generic surface diffeomorphism has either infinitely many sinks (i.e. attracting periodic orbits) or finitely many hyperbolic attractors with full Lebesgue measure basin. The goal of this…
Let the ${\cal C}^3$ vector field ${\cal X}+aX$ on $M$ define a flow $(f^t_a)$ with an Axiom A attractor $\Lambda_a$ depending continuously on $a\in(-\epsilon,\epsilon)$. Let $\rho_a$ be the SRB measure on $\Lambda_a$ for $(f^t_a)$. If…
We prove the existence of a contracting invariant topological foliation in a full neighborhood for partially hyperbolic attractors. Under certain bunching conditions it can then be shown that this stable foliation is smooth. Specialising to…
It has long been conjectured that the classical Lorenz attractor supports a unique measure of maximal entropy. In this article, we give a positive answer to this conjecture and its higher-dimensional counterpart by considering the…
In this work we obtain a new criterion to establish ergodicity and non-uniform hyperbolicity of smooth measures of diffeomorphisms. This method allows us to give a more accurate description of certain ergodic components. The use of this…
Under mild assumptions, the SRB measure $\mu$ associated to an Axiom A attractor $A$ has the following properties: (i) the empirical measure starting at a typical point near $A$ converges weakly to $\mu$; (ii) the pushforward of any…
On a compact manifold of any dimension $d\geq 3$, we show that joint non-integrability of the stable and unstable foliation of a hyperbolic attractor with one-dimensional expanding direction, for a vector field of class $C^2$, implies…
A sectional-Anosov flow on a manifold M is a C^1 vector field inwardly transverse to the boundary for which the maximal invariant is sectional-hyperbolic. We prove that every attractor of every vector field C^1 close to a transitive…
In [15] the authors proved the Pugh-Shub conjecture for partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms with 1-dimensional center, i.e. stable ergodic diffeomorphism are dense among the partially hyperbolic ones. In this work we address the issue of…
In this paper, we provide a technique result on the existence of Gibbs cu-states for diffeomorphisms with dominated splittings. More precisely, for given $C^2$ diffeomorphim $f$ with dominated splitting $T_{\Lambda}M = E\oplus F$ on an…
We use the Invariance Principle of Avila and Viana to prove that every partially hyperbolic symplectic diffeomorphism with 2-dimensional center bundle, and satisfying certain pinching and bunching conditions, can be $C^r$-approximated by…
We prove that every $C^1$ generic three-dimensional flow has either infinitely many sinks, or, infinitely many hyperbolic or singular-hyperbolic attractors whose basins form a full Lebesgue measure set. We also prove in the orientable case…
In this article we study some statistical aspects of surface diffeomorphisms. We first show that for a $C^1$ generic diffeomorphism, a Dirac invariant measure whose \emph{statistical basin of attraction} is dense in some open set and has…
We show that every partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism with a 1-dimensional center bundle has a principal symbolic extension. On the other hand, we show there are no symbolic extensions $C^1$-generically among diffeomorphisms containing…
In this article we study the regularity of the topological and metric entropy of partially hyperbolic flows with two-dimensional center direction. We show that the topological entropy is upper semicontinuous with respect to the flow, and we…
For every $r\in\mathbb{N}_{\geq2}\cup\{\infty\}$, we prove the $C^r$-closing lemma for general and conservative partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms with one-dimensional center bundle. In particular, it implies periodic points are dense for…
