In particular, if $f$ has an expanding repeller and $\\phi$ is an H\\\"older continuous potential we prove that the topological pressure of the set of points whose accumulation values of Birkhoff averages belong to some interval $I\\subset \\mathbb R$ can be expressed in terms of the topological pressure of the whole system and the large deviations rate function. As a byproduct we deduce that most irregular sets for maps with the specification property have topological pressure strictly smaller than the whole system. Some extensions to a non-uniformly hyperbolic setting, level-2 irregular sets and hyperbolic flows are also given.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2014-06-27T00:48:33.000Z", "title": "Multifractal analysis of irregular sets for weak Gibbs measures", "comment": "26 pages, 3 figures.
