Given an irreducible subshift of finite type X, a subshift Y, a factor map \pi : X \to Y, and an ergodic invariant measure \nu on Y, there can exist more than one ergodic measure on X which projects to \nu and has maximal entropy among all…
We prove the upper semicontinuity of the measure theoretic entropy for the geodesic flow on complete Riemannian manifolds without focal points and bounded sectional curvature. We then study the relationship between the escape of mass…
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…
We construct families of two-dimensional Sinai billiards whose transfer operators have Ruelle resonances arbitrarily close to 1. Our method involves taking a large enough cover of an initial billiard table, and relating the transfer…
Typically, the entropy of an isolated system in equilibrium is calculated by counting the number of accessible microstates, or in more general cases by using the Gibbs formula. In irreversible processes entropy spontaneously increases and…
We show that the topological entropy of the billiard map in a Bunimovich stadium is at most log(3.49066).
We estimate from below the topological entropy of the generalized Bunimovich stadium billiards. We do it for long billiard tables, and find the limit of estimates as the length goes to infinity.
We prove Poisson limit laws for open billiards where the holes are on the boundaries of billiard tables (rather than some abstract holes in the phase space of a billiard). Such holes are of the main interest for billiard systems, especially…
The multidimensional cosmological model describing the evolution of $n$ Einstein spaces in the presence of multicomponent perfect fluid is considered. When certain restrictions on the parameters of the model are imposed, the dynamics of the…
For a minimal Anosov $\mathbb R^{\kappa}$-action on a closed manifold, we study the measure of maximal entropy constructed by Carrasco and Rodriguez-Hertz in \cite{CarHer} and show that it fits into the theory of Ruelle-Taylor resonances…
In this paper, we study ergodic optimization of continuous functions for flows by concentrating on the entropy spectrum of their maximizing measures. Precisely, over a wide family of flows with non-uniformly hyperbolic structure, we obtain…
We consider the billiard flow of elastically colliding hard balls on the flat $\nu$-torus ($\nu\ge 2$), and prove that no singularity manifold can even locally coincide with a manifold describing future non-hyperbolicity of the…
We prove existence of maximal entropy measures for an open set of non-uniformly expanding local diffeomorphisms on a compact Riemannian manifold. In this context the topological entropy coincides with the logarithm of the degree, and these…
We prove that for $C^{1+\beta}$ flows whose generating vector fields may have singularities, every weakly mixing hyperbolic SRB measure is Bernoullian.
In this paper we show that in some cases the E.Hopf rigidity phenomenon admits quantitative interpretation. More precisely we estimate from above the measure of the set $\mathcal{M}$ swept by minimal orbits. These estimates are sharp, i.e.…
A certain class of partial differential equations possesses singular solutions having discontinuous first derivatives ("peakons"). The time evolution of peaks of such solutions is governed by a finite dimensional completely integrable…
The momentum entropic moments and R\'enyi entropies of a one-dimensional particle in an infinite well potential are found by means of explicit calculations of some Dirichlet-like trigonometric integrals. The associated spreading lengths and…
We show that time-one maps of transitive Anosov flows of compact manifolds are accumulated by diffeomorphisms robustly satisfying the following dichotomy: either all of the measures of maximal entropy are non-hyperbolic, or there are…
We study both the local and global existence of a gradient flow of the Sinai-Ruelle-Bowen entropy functional on a Hilbert manifold of expanding maps of a circle equipped with a Sobolev norm in the tangent space of the manifold. We show…
