Measures of intermediate entropies for star vector fields

Dynamical Systems 2018-08-28 v1

Abstract

We prove that all star vector fields, including Lorenz attractors and multisingular hyperbolic vector fields, admit the intermediate entropy property. To be precise, if XX is a star vector field with htop(X)>0h_{top}(X)>0, then for any h[0,htop(X))h\in [0,h_{top}(X)), there exists an ergodic invariant measure μ\mu of XX such that hμ(X)=hh_{\mu}(X)=h. Moreover, we show that the topological entropy is lower semi-continuous for star vector fields.
