It is known that the Lyapunov exponent of g with respect to the unique invariant measure that is absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure is positive and less than or equal to log 2 which, in addition, is less than or equal to the Lyapunov exponent of g with respect to the measure of maximal entropy. Moreover, the equalities only occur simultaneously. We show that these are the only restrictions on the Lyapunov exponents considered above for smooth expanding maps of degree 2.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-04-03T23:00:52.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "lyapunov exponent", "smooth expanding map", "flexibility", "unique invariant measure", "maximal entropy" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
