Continuity of Hausdorff dimension across generic dynamical Lagrange and Markov spectra II

Let $g_0$ be a smooth pinched negatively curved Riemannian metric on a complete surface N, and let $\Lambda _0$ be a basic hyperbolic set of the geodesic flow of $g_0$ with Hausdorff dimension strictly smaller than two. Given a small smooth perturbation g of $g_0$ and a smooth real-valued function f on the unit tangent bundle to N with respect to g, let $L_{g,\Lambda ,f}$ (respectively $M_{g,\Lambda ,f}$ ) be the Lagrange (respectively Markov) spectrum of asymptotic highest (respectively highest) values of f along the geodesics in the hyperbolic continuation $\Lambda $ of $\Lambda _0$ . We prove that for generic choices of g and f, the Hausdorff dimensions of the sets $L_{g,\Lambda , f}\cap (-\infty , t)$ vary continuously with $t\in \mathbb {R}$ and, moreover, $M_{g,\Lambda , f}\cap (-\infty , t)$ has the same Hausdorff dimension as $L_{g,\Lambda , f}\cap (-\infty , t)$ for all $t\in \mathbb {R}$ .

A Finite-time Condition for Exponential Trichotomy in Infinite Dynamical Systems

In this article we study exponential trichotomy for infinite dimensional discrete time dynamical systems. The goal of this article is to prove that finite time exponential trichotomy conditions allow us to derive exponential trichotomy for arbitrary times. We present an application to the case of pseudo orbits in some neighborhood of a normally hyperbolic set.

Normally Hyperbolic Sets in Discontinuous Dry Friction Oscillator

In this paper, we study a four-parameters piecewise-smooth dry friction oscillator from Control theory. Using Filippov's convention, we prove the existence of a codimension-1 bifurcation which gives rise to a normally hyperbolic set composed by a family of attracting cylinders. This bifurcation exhibits interesting discontinuous oscillation phenomena. We also present consistent numerical simulations.

SHADOWING PROPERTIES OF RANDOM HYPERBOLIC SETS

In this paper, some kinds of random shadowing properties are introduced. It is shown that, for some natural analogs of the deterministic case, a random hyperbolic set satisfies the shadowing properties.

Adapted metrics for dominated splittings

A Riemannian metric is adapted to a hyperbolic set of a diffeomorphism if, in this metric, the expansion/contraction of the unstable/stable directions is seen after only one iteration. A dominated splitting is a notion of weak hyperbolicity where the tangent bundle of the manifold splits in invariant subbundles such that the vector expansion on one bundle is uniformly smaller than that on the next bundle. The existence of an adapted metric for a dominated splitting has been considered by Hirsch, Pugh and Shub (M. Hisch, C. Pugh and M. Shub. Invariant Manifolds(Lecture Notes in Mathematics, 583). Springer, Berlin, 1977). This paper gives a complete answer to this problem, building adapted metrics for dominated splittings and partially hyperbolic splittings in arbitrarily many subbundles of arbitrary dimensions. These results stand for diffeomorphisms and for flows.
