The Entropy Conjecture for Diffeomorphisms Away from Tangencies
نویسندگان
چکیده
We prove that every C1 diffeomorphism away from homoclinic tangencies is entropy expansive, with locally uniform expansivity constant. Consequently, such diffeomorphisms satisfy Shub’s entropy conjecture: the entropy is bounded from below by the spectral radius in homology. Moreover, they admit principal symbolic extensions, and the topological entropy and metrical entropy vary continuously with the map. In contrast, generic diffeomorphisms with persistent tangencies are not entropy expansive and have no symbolic extensions.

C-robust Transitivity for Surfaces with Boundary
We prove that C-robustly transitive diffeomorphisms on surfaces with boundary do not exist, and we exhibit a class of diffeomorphisms of surfaces with boundary which are C−robustly transitive, with k ≥ 2. This class of diffeomorphisms are examples where a version of Palis’ conjecture on surfaces with boundary, about homoclinic tangencies and uniform hyperbolicity, does not hold in the C−topolog...
متن کاملReal Polynomial Diffeomorphisms with Maximal Entropy: Tangencies
The problem of understanding the dynamical behavior of diffeomorphisms has played a central role in the field of dynamical systems. One way of approaching this question is to ask about generic behavior in the space of diffeomorphisms. Another way to approach it is to ask about behavior in some specific parametrized family. The family of diffeomorphisms of R introduced by Hénon has often played ...
متن کاملInfinitely Many Coexisting Sinks from Degenerate Homoclinic Tangencies
The evolution of a horseshoe is an interesting and important phenomenon in Dynamical Systems as it represents a change from a nonchaotic state to a state of chaos. As we are interested in determining how this transition takes place, we are studying certain families of diffeomorphisms. We restrict our attention to certain one-parameter families {Ft} of diffeomorphisms in two dimensions. It is as...
متن کاملAbundance of C-robust homoclinic tangencies
A diffeomorphism f has a C-robust homoclinic tangency if there is a C-neighbourhood U of f such that every diffeomorphism in g ∈ U has a hyperbolic set Λg, depending continuously on g, such that the stable and unstable manifolds of Λg have some non-transverse intersection. For every manifold of dimension greater than or equal to three, we exhibit a local mechanism (blender-horseshoes) generatin...
متن کاملHomoclinic Tangencies near Cascades of Period Doubling Bifurcations
We consider perturbations of the Feigenbaum map in n dimensions. In the analytic topology we prove that the maps that are accumulated by period doubling bifurcations are approximable with homoclinic tangencies. We also develop a n-dimensional Feigenbaum theory in the Cr topology, for r large enough. We apply this theory to extend the result of approximation with homoclinic tangencies for Crmaps...
