AbstractBurguet [A direct proof of the tail variational principle and its extension to maps. Ergod. Th. & Dynam. Sys.29 (2009), 357–369] presented a direct proof of the variational principle of tail entropy and extended Downarowicz’s results to a non-invertible case. This paper defines and discusses tail pressure, which is an extension of tail entropy for continuous transformations. This study reveals analogs of many known results of topological pressure. Specifically, a variational principle is provided and some applications of tail pressure, such as the investigation of invariant measures and equilibrium states, are also obtained.

AbstractWe consider the variational principle for dimension on compact subsets of the 2-torus which are invariant under a non-conformal expanding diagonal endomorphism. Condition (H) ensures that the invariant measures with full dimension are the equilibrium states of some potential function. This result applies to the problem of uniqueness of the measure with full dimension on the sofic affine-invariant sets.

Abstract Unstable pressure and u-equilibrium states are introduced and investigated for a partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism f. We define the unstable pressure $P^{u}(f, \varphi )$ of f at a continuous function $\varphi $ via the dynamics of f on local unstable leaves. A variational principle for unstable pressure $P^{u}(f, \varphi )$ , which states that $P^{u}(f, \varphi )$ is the supremum of the sum of the unstable entropy and the integral of $\varphi $ taken over all invariant measures, is obtained. U-equilibrium states at which the supremum in the variational principle attains and their relation to Gibbs u-states are studied. Differentiability properties of unstable pressure, such as tangent functionals, Gateaux differentiability and Fréchet differentiability and their relations to u-equilibrium states, are also considered.

AbstractIn this paper, preimage pressure, which is based on the preimage structure of the system, is defined and studied for random transformations. We obtain analogs of many known results of preimage entropy and preimage pressure for deterministic cases in Cheng and Newhouse [Pre-image entropy. Ergod. Th. & Dynam. Sys.25 (2005), 1091–1113] and Zeng et al [Pre-image pressure and invariant measures. Ergod. Th. & Dynam. Sys.27 (2007), 1037–1052]. In particular, a variational principle is given and some applications of preimage pressure, such as the investigation of the invariant measures and the equilibrium states, are obtained.

Let [Formula: see text] be a [Formula: see text] random partially hyperbolic dynamical system. For the unstable foliation, the corresponding unstable metric entropy, unstable topological entropy and unstable pressure via the dynamics of [Formula: see text] on the unstable foliation are introduced and investigated. A version of Shannon–McMillan–Breiman Theorem for unstable metric entropy is given, and a variational principle for unstable pressure (and hence for unstable entropy) is obtained. Moreover, as an application of the variational principle, equilibrium states for the unstable pressure including Gibbs [Formula: see text]-states are investigated.

The article is devoted to the analysis of methodological problems in using the conception of macroeconomic equilibrium in contemporary economics. The author considers theoretical status and relevance of equilibrium conception and discusses different areas and limits of applicability of the equilibrium theory. Special attention is paid to different epistemological criteria for this theory taking into account both empirical analysis of the real stability of economic systems and the problem of unobservability of equilibrium states.
