Abstract:

I will discuss the thermodynamical formalism for dynamical systems admitting inducing schemes (tower constructions). This includes some real unimodal and multimodal maps, nonuniformly expanding maps, Henon attractors, etc. I discuss existence, and uniqueness of equilibrium (Gibbs) measures for a broad class of potential functions including absolutely continuous (SRB) measures and measures of maximal entropy.
