We prove a variational principle for the upper and lower metric mean dimension of level sets \[ \left\{x\in X: \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{1}{n}\sum_{j=0}^{n-1}\varphi(f^{j}(x))=\alpha\right\} \] associated to continuous potentials $\varphi:X\to…

In this article, we introduce a notion of relative mean metric dimension with potential for a factor map $\pi: (X,d, T)\to (Y, S)$ between two topological dynamical systems. To link it with ergodic theory, we establish four variational…
