Abstract
Let be a compact manifold and be a diffeomorphism on . If is an -invariant probability measure which is absolutely continuous relative to Lebesgue measure and for there is a dominated splitting on its orbit , then we give an estimation through Lyapunov characteristic exponents from below in Pesin's entropy formula, i.e., the metric entropy satisfies where and are the Lyapunov exponents at with respect to Consequently, by using a dichotomy for generic volume-preserving diffeomorphism we show that Pesin's entropy formula holds for generic volume-preserving diffeomorphisms, which generalizes a result of Tahzibi in dimension 2.
