A Probabilistic Approach To Intermittency

Carlangelo Liverani; Benoît Saussol; Sandro Vaienti

We present an original approach which allows to investigate the statistical properties of a non-uniform hyperbolic map of the interval. Based on a stochastic approximation of the deterministic map, this method gives essentially the optimal polynomial bound for the decay of correlations, the degree depending on the order of the tangency at the neutral xed point.

Absolutely continuous invariant measures for multidimensional expanding maps

Benoît Saussol

We investigate the existence and statistical properties of absolutely continuous invariant measures for multidimensional expanding maps with singularities. The key point is the establishment of a spectral gap in the spectrum of the transfer operator. Our assumptions appear quite naturally for maps with singularities. We allow maps that are discontinuous on some extremely wild sets, the shape of the discontinuities being completely ignored with our approach.

Higher-dimensional multifractal analysis

Luis Barreira; Benoît Saussol; Jörg Schmeling

We establish a higher-dimensional version of multifractal analysis for several classes of hyperbolic dynamical systems. This means that we consider multifractal decompositions which are associated to multi-dimensional parameters. In particular, we obtain a conditional variational principle, which shows that the topological entropy of the level sets of pointwise dimensions, local entropies, and Lyapunov exponents can be simultaneously approximated by the entropy of ergodic measures. A similar result holds for the Hausdorff dimension. This study allows us to exhibit new nontrivial phenomena absent in the one-dimensional multifractal analysis. In particular, while the domain of definition of a one-dimensional spectrum is always an interval, we show that for higher-dimensional spectra the domain may not be convex and may even have empty interior, while still containing an uncountable number of points. Furthermore, the interior of the domain of a higher-dimensional spectrum has in general more than one connected component.

Recurrence, Dimensions, and Lyapunov Exponents

Benoît Saussol; Serge Troubetzkoy; Sandro Vaienti

We show that the Poincaré return time of a typical cylinder is at least its length. For one dimensional maps we express the Lyapunov exponent and dimension via return times.

Distribution of frequencies of digits via multifractal analysis

Luis Barreira; Benoît Saussol; Jörg Schmeling

We study the Hausdorff dimension of a large class of sets in the real line defined in terms of the distribution of frequencies of digits for the representation in some integer base. In particular, our results unify and extend classical work of Borel, Besicovitch, Eggleston, and Billingsley in several directions. Our methods are based on recent results concerning the multifractal analysis of dynamical systems and often allow us to obtain explicit expressions for the Hausdorff dimension. This work is still another illustration of the role that the theory of dynamical systems can play in number theory.

Return time statistics via inducing

Henk Bruin; Benoît Saussol; Serge Troubetzkoy; Sandro Vaienti

We prove that the return time statistics of a dynamical system do not change if one passes to an induced (i.e. first return) map. We apply this to show exponential return time statistics in (i) smooth interval maps with nowhere-dense critical orbits and (ii) certain interval maps with neutral fixed points. The method also applies to (iii) certain quadratic maps of the complex plane.

Conformal measure and decay of correlation for covering weighted systems

Benoît Saussol; Carlangelo Liverani; Sandro Vaienti

We show that for a large class of piecewise monotonic transformations on a totally ordered, compact set one can construct conformal measures and obtain the exponential mixing rate for the associated equilibrium state. The method is based on the study of the Perron–Frobenius operator. The conformal measure, the density of the invariant measure and the rate of mixing are deduced by using an appropriate Hilbert metric, without any compactness arguments, even in the case of a countable to one transformation.

On the uniform hyperbolicity of some nonuniformly hyperbolic systems

José F. Alves; Vitor Araujo; Benoît Saussol

We give sufficient conditions for the uniform hyperbolicity o certain nonuni- formly hyperbolic dynamical systems. In particular, we show that local diffeomorphisms that are nonuniformly expanding on sets of total probability are necessarily uniformly ex- panding. We also present a version of this result for diffeomorphisms with nonuniformly hyperbolic sets.

AN INTRODUCTION TO QUANTITATIVE POINCARÉ RECURRENCE IN DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS

Benoît Saussol

We present some recurrence results in the context of ergodic theory and dynamical systems. The main focus will be on smooth dynamical systems, in particular, those with some chaotic/hyperbolic behavior. The aim is to compute recurrence rates, limiting distributions of return times, and short returns. We choose to give the full proofs of the results directly related to recurrence, avoiding as much as possible to hide the ideas behind technical details. This drove us to consider as our basic dynamical system a one-dimensional expanding map of the interval. We note, however, that most of the arguments still apply to higher dimensional or less uniform situations, so that most of the statements continue to hold. Some basic notions from the thermodynamic formalism and the dimension theory of dynamical systems will be recalled.

Product structure of Poincare recurrence

Benoît Saussol; Luis Barreira

We provide new non-trivial quantitative information on the behavior of Poincare recurrence. In particular we establish the almost everywhere coincidence of the recurrence rate and of the pointwise dimension for a large class of repellers, including repellers without finite Markov partitions. Using this information, we are able to show that for locally maximal hyperbolic sets the recurrence rate possesses a certain local product structure, which closely imitates the product structure provided by the families of local stable and unstable manifolds, as well as the almost product structure of hyperbolic measures.
