We show that the top Lyapunov exponent $\lambda_+(p)$ , $p = (p_1, \cdots, p_N)$ with $p_i >0$ for each $i$, associated with a random product of quasi-periodic cocycles depends real analytically on the transition probabilities $p$ whenever…
We derive large deviations type (LDT) estimates for linear cocycles over an ergodic multifrequency torus translation. These models are called quasi-periodic cocycles. We make the following assumptions on the model: the translation vector…

We prove a conditional theorem on the positivity of the Lyapunov exponent for a Schr\"odinger cocycle over a skew shift base with a cosine potential and the golden ratio as frequency. For coupling below 1, which is the threshold for…
We quantify the coupling asymptotics for the Lyapunov-exponent of a one-frequency quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger operator with analytic potential sampling function. The result refines the well-known lower bound of the Lyapunov-exponent by…
We study discrete quasiperiodic Schr\"odinger operators on $\ell^2(\zee)$ with potentials defined by $\gamma$-H\"older functions. We prove a general statement that for $\gamma >1/2$ and under the condition of positive Lyapunov exponents,…
We prove that, for semi-invertible linear cocycles, Lyapunov exponents of ergodic measures may be approximated by Lyapunov exponents on periodic points.
We devise an abstract, modular scheme to prove continuity of the Lyapunov exponents for a general class of linear cocycles. The main assumption is the availability of appropriate large deviation type (LDT) estimates which are uniform in the…

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 study the regularity of the Lyapunov exponent for quasi-periodic cocycles $(T_\omega, A)$ where $T_\omega$ is an irrational rotation $x\to x+ 2\pi\omega$ on $\SS^1$ and $A\in {\cal C}^l(\SS^1, SL(2,\mathbb{R}))$, $0\le l\le \infty$. For…
In this Note, we consider 1D lattice Schrodinger operators with deterministic strongly mixing potentials with very small coupling. We describe a scheme to establish positiv- ity of the Lyapunov exponent from a statement at some fixed scale.…
We show that SL(2,R) cocycles with a positive Lyapunov exponent are dense in all regularity classes and for all non-periodic dynamical systems. For Schr\"odinger cocycles, we show prevalence of potentials for which the Lyapunov exponent is…

The purpose of these notes is to discuss the advances in the theory of Lyapunov exponents of linear $\text{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$ cocycles over hyperbolic maps. The main focus is around results regarding the positivity of the Lyapunov exponent…
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…
We show that on a dense open set of analytic one-frequency complex valued cocycles in arbitrary dimension Oseledets filtration is either dominated or trivial. The underlying mechanism is different from that of the Bochi-Viana Theorem for…
A variant of multiscale analysis for ergodic Schr\"odinger operators is developed. This enables us to prove positivity of Lyapunov exponents given initial scale estimates and an initial Wegner estimate. This is then applied to high…
In this paper, we first prove the strong Birkhoff Ergodic Theorem for subharmonic functions with the irrational shift on the Torus. Then, it is applied to the analytic quasi-periodic Jacobi cocycles. We show that if the Lyapunov exponent of…
The classical Multiplicative Ergodic Theorem (MET) of Oseledets is generalized here to cocycles taking values in a semi-finite von Neumann algebra. This allows for a continuous Lyapunov distribution.
