Equilibrium measure for one-dimensional Lorenz-like expanding Maps
Let $L:[0,1]\setminus\{d\}\rightarrow [0,1]$ be a one-dimensional Lorenz like expanding map ($d$ is the point of discontinuity), $\mathcal{P}=\{ (0,d),(d,1) \}$ be a partition of $[0,1]$ and $C^α([0,1],\mathcal{P})$ the set of piecewise Hölder-continuous potential of [0,1] with the usual $\mathcal{C}^0$ topology. In this context, we prove, improving a result of \cite{BS03}, that piecewise Hölder-continuous potential $ϕ$ satisfying \linebreak $\max\left\{ \limsup_{n \rightarrow \infty}\frac{1}{n}(S_{n}ϕ)(0),\limsup_{n \rightarrow \infty}\frac{1}{n}(S_{n}ϕ)(1)\right\}<P_{\text{top}}(ϕ,T)$ support an unique equilibrium state. Indeed, we prove there exists an open and dense subset $\mathcal{H}$ of $C^α([0,1],\mathcal{P})$ such that, if $ϕ\in \mathcal{H}$, then $ϕ$ admits one equilibrium measure.
