Let $\pi:X\to Y$ be a factor map, where $(X,T)$ and $(Y,S)$ are topological dynamical systems. Let ${\bf a}=(a_1,a_2)\in {\Bbb R}^2$ with $a_1>0$ and $a_2\geq 0$, and $f\in C(X)$. The ${\bf a}$-weighted topological pressure of $f$, denoted…
Given an equilibrium state $\mu$ for a continuous function $f$ on a shift of finite type $X$, the pressure of $f$ is the integral, with respect to $\mu$, of the sum of $f$ and the information function of $\mu$. We show that under certain…
