More precisely, we prove a large deviation principle for the distribution of iterated preimages, periodic points, and Birkhoff averages. For this purpose we show that each H{\\\"o}lder continuous potential admits a unique equilibrium state, and that the pressure function can be characterized in terms of iterated preimages, periodic points, and Birkhoff averages. Then we use a variant of a general result of Kifer.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2010-02-06T20:12:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37D35", "37A50", "37D25", "60F10" ], "keywords": [ "large deviation principle", "non-uniformly hyperbolic rational maps", "periodic points", "birkhoff averages", "iterated preimages" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008arXiv0812.4761C" } } }
