On some aspects of local thermodynamical formalism (2412.04055v2)

Abstract: In 2007, Ye & Zhang introduced a version of local topological entropy. Since their entropy function is, as we show under mild conditions, constant for topologically transitive dynamical systems, we propose to adjust the notion in a way that does not neglect the initial transient part of an orbit. We investigate the properties of this ``transient'' version, which we call translocal entropy, and compute it in terms of Lyapunov exponents for various dynamical systems. We also investigate how this adjustment affects measure-theoretic local (Brin-Katok) entropy and local pressure functions, generalizing some partial variation principles of Ma & Wen.
