Moreover, we show that $f|_X$ is not $h$-expansive if there exists at least one branch point in the repellor. As a consequence of asymptotic $h$-expansiveness, for $f|_X$ and each real-valued continuous potential on $X$, there exists at least one equilibrium state. For such maps, if some additional assumptions are satisfied, we can furthermore establish a level-2 large deviation principle for iterated preimages, followed by an equidistribution result.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-11-13T12:49:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37F10", "37D35", "37F20", "37F15", "37D25", "37B99", "57M12" ], "keywords": [ "large deviation principle", "weak expansion properties", "metric coarse expanding conformal system" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 38, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
