Regularity, linear response formula and differentiability of the free energy for non-uniformly expanding local homeomorphisms

We study equilibrium states for an open class of non-uniformly expanding local homeomorphisms defined by a mild condition such that for some iterate each point admits at least one contracting inverse branch. We prove the existence and uniqueness of equilibrium states and the differentiability of statistical quantities (such as the equilibrium states and the free energy function) with respect to the dynamical system.

Regularity of the Density of SRB Measures for Solenoidal Attractors

We show that a class of higher-dimensional hyperbolic endomorphisms admit absolutely continuous invariant probabilities whose density are regular. The maps we consider are given by $T(x,y) = (E (x), C(y) + f(x) )$, where $E$ is a linear expanding map of $\mathbb{T}$, $C$ is a linear contracting map of $\mathbb{R}^d$, $f$ is in $C^r(\mathbb{T}^u,\mathbb{R}^d)$ and $r \geq 2$. We prove that if $|(\det C)(\det E)| \|C^{-1}\|^{-2s}>1$ for some $s \frac{u+d}{2}$ then the density is $C^k$ for every $k<s-\frac{u+d}{2}$. We also exhibit a condition involving $E$ and $C$ under which this tranversality condition is valid for almost every $f$.
