We consider linear iterated function systems with a random multiplicative error on the real line. Our system is $\{x\mapsto d_i + \lambda_i Y x\}_{i=1}^m$, where $d_i\in \R$ and $\lambda_i>0$ are fixed and $Y> 0$ is a random variable with…

In this paper, we proved that for every $C^1$ star vector fields on three-dimensional manifolds, every ergodic hyperbolic invariant measure which is not supported on singularities can be approximated by periodic measures, and the Lyapunov…

According to a previous conjecture, spatial and temporal Lyapunov exponents of chaotic extended systems can be obtained from derivatives of a suitable function: the entropy potential. The validity and the consequences of this hypothesis are…

This paper is the first in a series of three. The main result, Theorem 1.11, gives an explicit description of the ergodic decomposition for infinite Pickrell measures on spaces of infinite complex matrices. The main construction is that of…

We study probabilistic iterated function systems (IFS), consisting of a finite or infinite number of average-contracting bi-Lipschitz maps on R^d. If our strong open set condition is also satisfied, we show that both upper and lower bounds…

We study suspension flows defined over sub-shifts of finite type with continuous roof functions. We prove the existence of suspension flows with uncountably many ergodic measures of maximal entropy. More generally, we prove that any…

Ergodic optimization aims to single out dynamically invariant Borel probability measures which maximize the integral of a given "performance" function. For a continuous self-map of a compact metric space and a dense set of continuous…

We prove that, in stable families of endomorphisms of $\mathbb{P}^k(\mathbb{C})$, all invariant measures whose measure-theoretic entropy is strictly larger than $(k-1)\log d$ at a given parameter can be followed holomorphically with the…

We apply the maximum entropy principle to construct the natural invariant density and Lyapunov exponent of one-dimensional chaotic maps. Using a novel function reconstruction technique that is based on the solution of Hausdorff moment…

We study expansive measures for continuous flows without fixed points on compact metric spaces. We provide a new characterization of expansive measures through dynamical balls that, in contrast to the dynamical balls considered in [\emph{J.…

In this paper we study ergodic optimization problems for typical cocycles. We consider one-step $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$-cocycles that satisfy pinching and twisting conditions. We prove that the Lyapunov maximizing measures have zero entropy…

We prove two continuity theorems for the Lyapunov exponents of the maximal entropy measure of polynomial automorphisms of $\mathbb{C}^2$. The first continuity result holds for any family of polynomial automorphisms of constant dynamical…

Given an irreducible subshift of finite type X, a subshift Y, a factor map \pi : X \to Y, and an ergodic invariant measure \nu on Y, there can exist more than one ergodic measure on X which projects to \nu and has maximal entropy among all…

On a one-sided shift of finite type we prove that for a generic Holder continuous function there is a unique maximizing measure. We show that b-Holder continuous functions can be approximated in the a-Holder topology, a<b, by a function…

For a $C^\infty$ map on a compact manifold we prove that for a Lebesgue randomly picked point x there is an empirical measure from $x$ with entropy larger than or equal to the sum of positive Lyapunov exponents at $x$.

Let f be a dominant rational map of P^k such that there exists s <k, with lambda_s(f)>lambda_l(f) for all l. Under mild hypotheses, we show that, for A outside a pluripolar set of the group of automorphisms of P^k, the map f o A admits a…

In this paper we study the ergodic theory of a robust non-uniformly expanding maps where no Markov assumption is required. We prove that the topological pressure is differentiable as a function of the dynamics and analytic with respect to…

We show that the continuity property of Lyapunov exponents proved in \cite{BCS-Exponents} for smooth surface diffeomorphisms extends to smooth interval maps, in the case when the map only has non-flat critical points and the entropies…

We show that for entire maps of the form $z \mapsto \lambda \exp(z)$ such that the orbit of zero is bounded and such that Lebesgue almost every point is transitive, no absolutely continuous invariant probability measure can exist. This…

In this paper, we improve the known estimates for the invariance entropy of a nonlinear control system. For sets of complete approximate controllability we derive an upper bound in terms of Lyapunov exponents and for uniformly hyperbolic…
