It is known that the positive Lyapunov exponent of $f$ with respect to the normalized Lebesgue measure is less than or equal to the topological entropy of $L$, which, in addition, is less than or equal to the Lyapunov exponent of $f$ with respect to the probability measure of maximal entropy. Moreover, the equalities only occur simultaneously. We show that these are the only restrictions on these two dynamical invariants.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-09-25T12:52:40.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "flexibility", "smooth area-preserving anosov diffeomorphism", "anosov automorphism", "positive lyapunov exponent", "normalized lebesgue measure" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 27, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
