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…

We give examples of locally constant $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$-cocycles over a Bernoulli shift which are discontinuity points for Lyapunov exponents in the H\"older topology and are arbitrarily close to satisfying the fiber bunching inequality.…

Given a hyperbolic homeomorphism on a compact metric space, consider the space of linear cocycles over this base dynamics which are H\"older continuous and whose projective actions are partially hyperbolic dynamical systems. We prove that…

We consider the linear cocycle $(T,A)$ induced by a measure preserving dynamical system $T:X \to X$ and a map $A:X \to \mathit{SL}(2,\mathbb{R})$. We address the dependence of the upper Lyapunov exponent of $(T,A)$ on the dynamics $T$ when…

We consider linear cocycles over non-uniformly hyperbolic dynamical systems. The base system is a diffeomorphism $f$ of a compact manifold $X$ preserving a hyperbolic ergodic probability measure $\mu$. The cocycle $A$ over $f$ is Holder…

We study the regularity of the Lyapunov exponent for quasi-periodic cocycles $(T_\omega, A)$ where $T_\omega$ is an irrational rotation $x\to x+ 2\pi\omega$ on $\SS^1$ and $A\in {\cal C}^l(\SS^1, SL(2,\mathbb{R}))$, $0\le l\le \infty$. For…

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 $\alpha > 0$.…

In the present paper we give a positive answer to some questions posed by Viana on the existence of positive Lyapunov exponents for Hamiltonian linear differential systems. We prove that there exists an open and dense set of Hamiltonian…

We show the sum of the first $k$ Lyapunov exponents of linear cocycles is an upper semicontinuous function in the $L^p$ topologies, for any $1 \le p \le \infty$ and $k$. This fact, together with a result from Arnold and Cong, implies that…

The Lyapunov exponents of locally constant GL(2;C)-cocycles over Bernoulli shifts depend continuously on the cocycle and on the invariant probability. The Oseledets decomposition also depends continuously on the cocycle, in measure.

We consider a similar type of scenario for the disappearance of uniform of hyperbolicity as in Bjerkl\"ov and Saprykina (2008, Nonlinearity 21), where it was proved that the minimum distance between invariant stable and unstable bundles has…

We consider symplectic cocycles over two classes of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms: having compact center leaves and time one maps of Anosov flows. We prove that the Lyapunov exponents are non-zero in an open and dense set in the…

We construct examples of discontinuity of Lyapunov exponent in the spaces of quasiperiodic $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb R)$-cocycles for fixed irrational frequencies. Especially, we prove that the Gevrey space $G^2$ is the transition space of…

We prove that, for semi-invertible continuous cocycles, continuity of Lyapunov exponents is equivalent to continuity, in measure, of Oseledets subspaces.

We prove a conjecture of Viana which states that Lyapunov exponents vary continuously when restricted to $GL(2,\mathbb{R})$-valued cocycles over a subshift of finite type which admit invariant holonomies that depend continuously on the…

We consider group-valued cocycles over dynamical systems. The base system is a homeomorphism $f$ of a metric space satisfying a closing property, for example a hyperbolic dynamical system or a subshift of finite type. The cocycle $A$ takes…

In this paper we prove the continuity of all Lyapunov exponents, as well as the continuity of the Oseledets decomposition, for a class of irreducible cocycles over strongly mixing Markov shifts. Moreover, gaps in the Lyapunov spectrum lead…

We prove a new characterization of uniform hyperbolicity for fiber-bunched cocycles. Specifically, we show that the existence of a uniform gap between the Lyapunov exponents of a fiber-bunched $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$-cocycle defined over a…

We study the regularity of Lyapunov exponents for random linear cocycles taking values in $\Mat_m(\R)$ and driven by i.i.d. processes. Under three natural conditions - finite exponential moments, a spectral gap between the top two Lyapunov…

A theorem of Viana says that almost all cocycles over any hyperbolic system have nonvanishing Lyapunov exponents. In this note we extend this result to cocycles on any noncompact classical semisimple Lie group.
