An analytic quasi-periodic cocycle is a linear cocycle over a fixed ergodic torus translation of one or several variables, where the fiber action depends analytically on the base point. Consider the space of all such cocycles of any given…
We study linear co-cycles in GL(d,R) (or C) depending on a parameter (in a Lipschitz or Holder fashion) and establish Holder regularity of the Lyapunov exponents for the shift dynamics on the base. We also obtain rates of convergence of the…
We explicitly compute the maximal Lyapunov exponent for a switched system on $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb R)$. This computation is reduced to the characterization of optimal trajectories for an optimal control problem on the Lie group.
This article concerns the locus of all locally constant $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{R})$-valued cocycles that are uniformly hyperbolic, called the hyperbolic locus. Using the theory of semigroups of M\"obius transformations we introduce a new…
In this paper we establish uniform large deviations estimates of exponential type and H\"older continuity of the Lyapunov exponents for random non-invertible cocycles with constant rank.
The celebrated Oseledets theorem \cite{O}, building over seminal works of Furstenberg and Kesten on random products of matrices and random variables taking values on non-compact semisimple Lie groups \cite{FK,Furstenberg}, ensures that the…
We exhibit an example of discontinuity point for the Lyapunov exponents as a function of the cocycle in the $\alpha$-H\"older topology. The linear cocycle taking values in $SL(2, \mathbb{R})$ is locally constant and defined over a Bernoulli…
This paper is concerned with the study of linear cocycles over uniformly ergodic Markov shifts on a compact space of symbols. We establish the joint H\"older continuity of the maximal Lyapunov exponent as a function of the cocycle and the…
We consider an m-dimensional analytic cocycle with underlying dynamics given by an irrational translation on the circle. Assuming that the d-dimensional upper left corner of the cocycle is typically large enough, we prove that the d largest…
In this manuscript, we consider finitely many maps, all of which are defined on a smooth compact measure space, with at least one map in the collection having degree strictly bigger than 1. Working with random dynamics generated by this…
We derive a criterion for the positivity of the maximal Lyapunov exponent of generic mixed random-quasiperiodic linear cocycles, a model introduced in a previous work. This result is applicable to cocycles corresponding to Schr\"odinger…
We consider some general classes of random dynamical systems and show that a priori very weak nonuniform hyperbolicity conditions actually imply uniform hyperbolicity.
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…
In this paper, we give a quantitative estimate for the sum of the first $N$ Lyapunov exponents for random perturbations of a natural class $2N$-dimensional volume-preserving systems exhibiting strong hyperbolicity on a large but…
We prove that Sp(2d;R), HSp(2d) and pseudo unitary cocycles with at least one non-zero Lyapunov exponent are dense in all usual regularity classes for non periodic dynamical systems. For Schr\"odinger operators on the strip, we prove a…
We prove that a locally constant $SL_{2}(\mathbb{R})$-valued cocycle over the shift generated by an irreducible collection of matrices is a continuity point for Lyapunov exponents in the $\alpha$-H\"older topology for every $\alpha > 0$.…
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 present an example of a discontinuity point for the Lyapunov exponents when viewed as a function of the cocycle in a topology finer than the $C^0$-topology. The linear cocycle taking values in SL(2,R) is locally constant, defined over a…
We study cocycles taking values in the mapping class group of closed surfaces and investigate their leading topological Lyapunov exponent. Under a natural closing property, we show that the top topological Lyapunov exponent can be…
This is a lightning introduction to some modern techniques used in the study of the statistical properties of hyperbolic dynamical systems. The emphasis is not in presenting a comprehensive theory but rather in fleshing out the main ideas…
