We prove sharp results on polynomial decay of correlations for nonuniformly hyperbolic flows. Applications include intermittent solenoidal flows and various Lorentz gas models including the infinite horizon Lorentz gas.
Following recent work of Chernov, Markarian, and Zhang, it is known that the billiard map for dispersing billiards with zero angle cusps has slow decay of correlations with rate 1/n. Since the collisions inside a cusp occur in quick…

We prove that for evolution problems with normally hyperbolic trapping in phase space, correlations decay exponentially in time. Normal hyperbolic trapping means that the trapped set is smooth and symplectic and that the flow is hyperbolic…
We obtain $q$-Wasserstein convergence rates in the invariance principle for nonuniformly hyperbolic flows, where $q\ge1$ depends on the degree of nonuniformity. Utilizing a martingale-coboundary decomposition for nonuniformly expanding…
Let $G$ be a connected semisimple Lie group with finite centre, and let $M= \Gamma \backslash G$ be a compact homogeneous manifold. Under a spectral gap assumption, we show that smooth time-changes of any unipotent flow on $M$ have…

Linked-twist maps are area-preserving, piece-wise diffeomorphisms, defined on a subset of the torus. They are non-uniformly hyperbolic generalisations of the well-known Arnold Cat Map. We show that a class of canonical examples have…
We estimate the speed of decay of correlations for general nonuniformly expanding dynamical systems, using estimates on the time the system takes to become really expanding. Our method can deal with fast decays, such as exponential or…
