In the first case of the dichotomy we obtain that the system is topologically conjugated to a rotation extension of a hyperbolic system. This implies that the second case of the dichotomy holds for an open and dense set of diffeomorphisms in the hypothesis of our result. As a consequence we obtain an open set of topologically mixing diffeomorphisms having more than one entropy maximizing measure.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-10-16T19:42:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "compact center leaves", "partially hyperbolic systems", "nonzero center lyapunov exponent", "unique entropy maximizing measure", "diffeomorphisms" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010arXiv1010.3372R" } } }
