AbstractWe consider partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms on compact manifolds. We define the notion of the unstable and stable foliations stably carrying some unique non-trivial homologies. Under this topological assumption, we prove the following two results: if the center foliation is one-dimensional, then the topological entropy is locally a constant; and if the center foliation is two-dimensional, then the topological entropy is continuous on the set of all $C^{\infty }$ diffeomorphisms. The proof uses a topological invariant we introduced, Yomdin’s theorem on upper semi-continuity, Katok’s theorem on lower semi-continuity for two-dimensional systems, and a refined Pesin–Ruelle inequality we proved for partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms.

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>We prove that for any partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism having neutral center behavior on a 3-manifold, the center stable and center unstable foliations are complete; moreover, each leaf of center stable and center unstable foliations is a cylinder, a Möbius band or a plane.</p><p style='text-indent:20px;'>Further properties of the Bonatti–Parwani–Potrie type of examples of of partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms are studied.

Consider a $C^{1}$-partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism $f:M\rightarrow M$. Following the ideas in establishing the local variational principle for topological dynamical systems, we introduce the notions of local unstable metric entropies (and local unstable topological entropy) relative to a Borel cover ${\mathcal{U}}$ of $M$. It is shown that they coincide with the unstable metric entropy (and unstable topological entropy, respectively), when ${\mathcal{U}}$ is an open cover with small diameter. We also define the unstable tail entropy in the sense of Bowen and the unstable topological conditional entropy in the sense of Misiurewicz, and demonstrate that both of them vanish. Some generalizations of these results to the case of unstable pressure are also investigated.

We study the local entropy of typical infinite Bowen balls in random dynamical systems, and show the random entropy expansiveness for [Formula: see text] partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms with multi one-dimensional centers. Moreover, we consider [Formula: see text] diffeomorphism [Formula: see text] with dominated splitting [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] for every [Formula: see text], and all the Lyapunov exponents are non-negative along [Formula: see text] and non-positive along [Formula: see text], we prove the asymptotically random entropy expansiveness for [Formula: see text].

Abstract We explore new connections between the dynamics of conservative partially hyperbolic systems and the geometric measure-theoretic properties of their invariant foliations. Our methods are applied to two main classes of volume-preserving diffeomorphisms: fibered partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms and center-fixing partially hyperbolic systems. When the center is one-dimensional, assuming the diffeomorphism is accessible, we prove that the disintegration of the volume measure along the center foliation is either atomic or Lebesgue. Moreover, the latter case is rigid in dimension three (this does not require accessibility): the center foliation is actually smooth and the diffeomorphism is smoothly conjugate to an explicit rigid model. A partial extension to fibered partially hyperbolic systems with compact fibers of any dimension is also obtained. A common feature of these classes of diffeomorphisms is that the center leaves either are compact or can be made compact by taking an appropriate dynamically defined quotient. For volume-preserving partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms whose center foliation is absolutely continuous, if the generic center leaf is a circle, then every center leaf is compact.

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.

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.
