Linear Response for a Family of Self-Consistent Transfer Operators (2001.01317v3)

Abstract: We study a system of all-to-all weakly coupled uniformly expanding circle maps in the thermodynamic limit. The state of the system is described by a probability measure and its evolution is given by the action of a nonlinear operator, also called a self-consistent transfer operator. We prove that when the coupling is sufficiently small, the system has a unique stable state that satisfies a linear response formula when varying the coupling strength.
