Nonstationary smooth geometric structures for contracting measurable cocycles

Abstract

We implement a differential-geometric approach to normal forms for contracting measurable cocycles to \mboxDiffq(Rn,0)\mbox{Diff}^q({\bf R}^n, {\bf 0}), q2q \geq 2. We obtain resonance polynomial normal forms for the contracting cocycle and its centralizer, via CqC^q changes of coordinates. These are interpreted as nonstationary invariant differential-geometric structures. We also consider the case of contracted foliations in a manifold, and obtain CqC^q homogeneous structures on leaves for an action of the group of subresonance polynomial diffeomorphisms together with translations.
