We prove that any C^{1+} transformation, possibly with a (non-flat) critical or singular region, admits an invariant probability measure absolutely continuous with respect to any expanding measure whose Jacobian satisfies a mild distortion…

On a one-sided shift of finite type we prove that for a generic Holder continuous function there is a unique maximizing measure. We show that b-Holder continuous functions can be approximated in the a-Holder topology, a<b, by a function…

Expanding Thurston maps form a class of branched covering maps on the topological $2$-sphere $S^{2}$, which are topological models of some non-uniformly expanding rational maps without any smoothness or holomorphicity assumption initially…

For $C^{1+}$ maps, possibly non-invertible and with singularities, we prove that each homoclinic class of an ergodic adapted hyperbolic measure carries at most one adapted hyperbolic measure of maximal entropy. We then apply this to study…

In this paper we investigate the relation between measure expansiveness and hyperbolicity. We prove that non atomic invariant ergodic measures with all of its Lyapunov exponents positive is positively measure-expansive. We also prove that…

Exploring abundance and non lacunarity of hyperbolic times for endomorphisms preserving an ergodic probability with positive Lyapunov exponents, we obtain that there are periodic points of period growing sublinearly with respect to the…

In this paper we deal with an invariant ergodic hyperbolic measure $\mu$ for a diffeomorphism $f,$ assuming that $f$ it is either $C^{1+\alpha}$ or $f$ is $C^1$ and the Oseledec splitting of $\mu$ is dominated. We show that this system…

We construct measures of maximal $u$-entropy for any partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism that factors over an Anosov torus automorphism and has mostly contracting center direction. The space of such measures has a finite dimension, and its…

Let $k \ge 1$ be an integer and $f$ a holomorphic endomorphism of $\mathbb P^k (\mathbb C)$ of algebraic degree $d\geq 2$. We introduce a volume dimension for ergodic $f$-invariant probability measures with strictly positive Lyapunov…

We study invariant measures and thermodynamic formalism for a class of endomorphisms $F_T$ which are only piecewise differentiable on countably many pieces and non-conformal. The endomorphism $F_T$ has parametrized countably generated limit…

We effect thermodynamical formalism for the non-uniformly hyperbolic $C^\infty$ map of the two dimensional torus known as the Katok map. It is a slowdown of a linear Anosov map near the origin and it is a local (but not small) perturbation.…

We consider random perturbations of a topologically transitive local diffeomorphism of a Riemannian manifold. We show that if an absolutely continuous ergodic stationary measures is expanding (all Lyapunov exponents positive), then there is…

We show that $C^\infty$ surface diffeomorphisms with positive topological entropy have at most finitely many ergodic measures of maximal entropy in general, and at most one in the topologically transitive case. This answers a question of…

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…

For an ergodic hyperbolic measure $\omega$ of a $C^{1+{\alpha}}$ diffeomorphism, there is an $\omega$ full-measured set $\tilde\Lambda$ such that every nonempty, compact and connected subset $V$ of $\mathbb{M}_{inv}(\tilde\Lambda)$…

Expanding Thurston maps were introduced by M. Bonk and D. Meyer with motivation from complex dynamics and Cannon's conjecture from geometric group theory via Sullivan's dictionary. In this paper, we introduce subsystems of expanding…

In this paper, we show that each expanding Thurston map $f : S^2\rightarrow S^2$ has $1+ deg f$ fixed points, counted with appropriate weight, where $ deg f$ denotes the topological degree of the map $f$. We then prove the equidistribution…

In this note, we establish an original result for the thermodynamic formalism in the context of expanding circle transformations with an indifferent fixed point. For an observable whose continuity modulus is linked to the dynamics near such…

We study the thermodynamic formalism of a $C^{\infty}$ non-uniformly hyperbolic diffeomorphism on the 2-torus, known as the Katok map. We prove for a H\"older continuous potential with one additional condition, or the geometric t-potential…

We develop a quenched thermodynamic formalism for open random dynamical systems generated by finitely branched, piecewise-monotone mappings of the interval. The openness refers to the presence of holes in the interval, which terminate…
