Let$f:M\rightarrow M$be a partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism with conformality on unstable manifolds. Consider a set of points with non-dense forward orbit:$E(f,y):=\{z\in M:y\notin \overline{\{f^{k}(z),k\in \mathbb{N}\}}\}$for some$y\in M$. Define$E_{x}(f,y):=E(f,y)\cap W^{u}(x)$for any$x\in M$. Following a method of Broderick, Fishman and Kleinbock [Schmidt’s game, fractals, and orbits of toral endomorphisms.Ergod. Th. & Dynam. Sys.31(2011), 1095–1107], we show that$E_{x}(f,y)$is a winning set for Schmidt games played on$W^{u}(x)$which implies that$E_{x}(f,y)$has Hausdorff dimension equal to$\dim W^{u}(x)$. Furthermore, we show that for any non-empty open set$V\subset M$,$E(f,y)\cap V$has full Hausdorff dimension equal to$\dim M$, by constructing measures supported on$E(f,y)\cap V$with lower pointwise dimension converging to$\dim M$and with conditional measures supported on$E_{x}(f,y)\cap V$. The results can be extended to the set of points with forward orbit staying away from a countable subset of$M$.

Let$g:M\rightarrow M$be a$C^{1+\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}}$-partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism preserving an ergodic normalized volume on$M$. We show that, if$f:M\rightarrow M$is a$C^{1+\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}}$-Anosov diffeomorphism such that the stable subspaces of$f$and$g$span the whole tangent space at some point on$M$, the set of points that equidistribute under$g$but have non-dense orbits under$f$has full Hausdorff dimension. The same result is also obtained when$M$is the torus and$f$is a toral endomorphism whose center-stable subspace does not contain the stable subspace of$g$at some point.

We generalize the notion of Schmidt games to the setting of the general Caratheódory construction. The winning sets for such generalized Schmidt games usually have large corresponding Caratheódory dimensions (e.g., Hausdorff dimension and topological entropy). As an application, we show that for every $C^{1+\unicode[STIX]{x1D703}}$-partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism $f:M\rightarrow M$ satisfying certain technical conditions, the topological entropy of the set of points with non-dense forward orbits is bounded below by the unstable metric entropy (in the sense of Ledrappier–Young) of certain invariant measures. This also gives a unified proof of the fact that the topological entropy of such a set is equal to the topological entropy of $f$, when $f$ is a toral automorphism or the time-one map of a certain non-quasiunipotent homogeneous flow.

AbstractA partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism $f$ has the quasi-shadowing property if for any pseudo orbit $\{x_{k}\}_{k\in \mathbb{Z}}$, there is a sequence of points $\{y_{k}\}_{k\in \mathbb{Z}}$ tracing it in which $y_{k+1}$ is obtained from $f(y_{k})$ by a motion ${\it\tau}$ along the center direction. We show that any partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism has the quasi-shadowing property, and if $f$ has a $C^{1}$ center foliation then we can require ${\it\tau}$ to move the points along the center foliation. As applications, we show that any partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism is topologically quasi-stable under $C^{0}$-perturbation. When $f$ has a uniformly compact $C^{1}$ center foliation, we also give partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism versions of some theorems which hold for uniformly hyperbolic systems, such as the Anosov closing lemma, the cloud lemma and the spectral decomposition theorem.

AbstractLet $X$ be a compact metric space, $f:X\to X$ a homeomorphism and $\phi \in C(X,\mathbb {R})$. We construct a fundamental domain for the set of points with finite peaks with respect to the induced cocycle $\{\phi _n\}$. As applications, we give sufficient conditions for the transitive set of a non-conservative partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism to have positive Lebesgue measure, i.e., for an accessible partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism, if the set of points with finite peaks for the Jacobian cocycle is not of full volume, then the set of transitive points is of positive volume.

AbstractWe obtain the following dichotomy for accessible partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms of three-dimensional manifolds having compact center leaves: either there is a unique entropy-maximizing measure, this measure has the Bernoulli property and its center Lyapunov exponent is 0, or there are a finite number of entropy-maximizing measures, all of them with non-zero center Lyapunov exponents (at least one with a negative exponent and one with a positive exponent), that are finite extensions of a Bernoulli system. In the first case of the dichotomy, we obtain that the system is topologically conjugated to a rotation extension of a hyperbolic system. This implies that the second case of the dichotomy holds for an open and dense set of diffeomorphisms in the hypothesis of our result. As a consequence, we obtain an open set of topologically mixing diffeomorphisms having more than one entropy-maximizing measure.

In this paper, two notes about the ergodicity of partially hyperbolic systems are given. First one is the ergodicity for a C2 volume preserving partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism of a smooth compact Riemannian manifold which is essentially accessible and weak central exponentially bunched. Second one is that for a C2 partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism, if both forward and backward center bunched are a full probability set, then it is center bunched in the sense of [Burns & Wilkinson, 2010].

Abstract We consider Hölder continuous cocycles over an accessible partially hyperbolic system with values in the group of diffeomorphisms of a compact manifold $\mathcal {M}$ . We obtain several results for this setting. If a cocycle is bounded in $C^{1+\gamma }$ , we show that it has a continuous invariant family of $\gamma $ -Hölder Riemannian metrics on $\mathcal {M}$ . We establish continuity of a measurable conjugacy between two cocycles assuming bunching or existence of holonomies for both and pre-compactness in $C^0$ for one of them. We give conditions for existence of a continuous conjugacy between two cocycles in terms of their cycle weights. We also study the relation between the conjugacy and holonomies of the cocycles. Our results give arbitrarily small loss of regularity of the conjugacy along the fiber compared to that of the holonomies and of the cocycle.

Abstract We show that if a partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism of a Seifert manifold induces a map in the base which has a pseudo-Anosov component then it cannot be dynamically coherent. This extends [C. Bonatti, A. Gogolev, A. Hammerlindl and R. Potrie. Anomalous partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms III: Abundance and incoherence. Geom. Topol., to appear] to the whole isotopy class. We relate the techniques to the study of certain partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms in hyperbolic 3-manifolds performed in [T. Barthelmé, S. Fenley, S. Frankel and R. Potrie. Partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms homotopic to the identity in dimension 3, part I: The dynamically coherent case. Preprint, 2019, arXiv:1908.06227; Partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms homotopic to the identity in dimension 3, part II: Branching foliations. Preprint, 2020, arXiv: 2008.04871]. The appendix reviews some consequences of the Nielsen–Thurston classification of surface homeomorphisms for the dynamics of lifts of such maps to the universal cover.

AbstractIn this paper, it is shown that for a minimal system (X, G), if H is a normal subgroup of G with finite index n, then X can be decomposed into n components of closed sets such that each component is minimal under H-action. Meanwhile, we prove that for a residual set of points in a minimal system with finitely many commuting homeomorphisms, the set of return times to any non-empty open set contains arbitrarily long geometric progressions in multidimension, extending a previous result by Glasscock, Koutsogiannis and Richter.
