We prove for $C^\infty$ non-singular flows on three-dimensional compact manifolds with positive entropy, there are at most finitely many ergodic measures of maximal entropy. This result extends the notable work of Buzzi-Crovisier-Sarig…
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…
We prove that for ergodic measures with large entropy have long unstable manifolds for $C^\infty$ surface diffeomorphisms. Specifically, for any $\alpha>0$, there exist constants $\beta>0$ and $c>0$ such that for every ergodic measure $\mu$…
Let $f$ be a $C^r$ surface diffeomorphism with large entropy (more precisely, $h_{\rm top}(f)>\lambda_{\min}(f)/{r}$). Then the number of ergodic measures of maximal entropy is upper semicontinuous at $f$. This generalizes the $C^\infty$…
We study the entropy and Lyapunov exponents of invariant measures $\mu$ for smooth surface diffeomorphisms $f$, as functions of $(f,\mu)$. The main result is an inequality relating the discontinuities of these functions. One consequence is…
We show that $\mathcal{C}^{\infty}$ local diffeomorphisms of closed surfaces whose topological entropy is larger than the logarithm of their degree admit a finite number of ergodic measures of maximal entropy. To do this, we construct…
We establish that $C^\infty$ three-dimensional flows with positive topological entropy admit only finitely many ergodic measures of maximal entropy, even when singularities (zero-velocity points) are present. Furthermore, every ergodic…
We introduce the strong positive recurrence (SPR) property for diffeomorphisms on closed manifolds with arbitrary dimension, and show that it has many consequences and holds in many cases. SPR diffeomorphisms can be coded by countable state…
We prove that for some manifolds $M$ the set of robustly transitive partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms of $M$ with one-dimensional nonhyperbolic centre direction contains a $C^1$-open and dense subset of diffeomorphisms with nonhyperbolic…
Let $\{T^t\}$ be a smooth flow with positive speed and positive topological entropy on a compact smooth three dimensional manifold, and let $\mu$ be an ergodic measure of maximal entropy. We show that either $\{T^t\}$ is Bernoulli, or…
We continue our study of the dynamics of mappings with small topological degree on (projective) complex surfaces. Previously, under mild hypotheses, we have constructed an ergodic ``equilibrium'' measure for each such mapping. Here we study…
We prove that if a geodesic flow on a closed orientable $C^\infty$ surface is transitive and has positive topological entropy, then it has a unique measure of maximal entropy. This covers all previous results of the literature on the…
We consider partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms $f$ with a one-dimensional central direction such that the unstable entropy exceeds the stable entropy. Our main result proves that such maps have a finite number of ergodic measures of…
We prove a finite smooth version of the entropic continuity of Lyapunov exponents of Buzzi-Crovisier-Sarig for $C^\infty$ surface diffeomorphisms [9]. As a consequence we show that any $C^r$, $r > 1$, smooth surface diffeomorphism $f$ with…
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…
In this paper, we show that for several interesting systems beyond uniform hyperbolicity, any generic continuous function has a unique maximizing measure with zero entropy. In some cases, we also know that the maximizing measure has full…
A $C^\infty$ surface diffeomorphism admits a SRB measure if and only if the set \left \{x, \limsup_n \frac{1}{ n} \log \|d_xf^n \|> 0\right\} has positive Lebesgue measure. Moreover the basins of the ergodic SRB measures are covering this…
Suppose f is a $C^{1+\alpha}$ surface diffeomorphism, and m is an equilibrium measure of a Holder continuous potential. We show that if m has positive metric entropy, then f is measure theoretically isomorphic to the product of a Bernoulli…
In this work we obtain a new criterion to establish ergodicity and non-uniform hyperbolicity of smooth measures of diffeomorphisms. This method allows us to give a more accurate description of certain ergodic components. The use of this…
We study the generic invariant probability measures for the geodesic flow on connected complete nonpositively curved manifolds. Under a mild technical assumption, we prove that ergodicity is a generic property in the set of probability…
