Symbolic dynamics for three-dimensional flows with positive topological entropy

Abstract: We construct symbolic dynamics on sets of full measure (with respect to an ergodic measure of positive entropy) for C 1+ε flows on closed smooth three dimensional manifolds. One consequence is that the geodesic flow on the unit tangent bundle of a closed C ∞ surface has at least const ×(e hT /T ) simple closed orbits of period less than T , whenever the topological entropy h is positive -and without further assumptions on the curvature. Kat82]. It extends to flows of lesser regularity, under the additional ass… Show more

“…When M is compact and f is a diffeomorphism, the above statement is consequence of Propositions 3.5, 4.5 and Lemmas 4.6, 4.7 of [Sar13]. When M is compact with boundary and f is a local diffeomorphism with bounded derivatives, this is [LS19,Prop. 4.3].…”

“…The methods employed in this article require some familiarity with the articles [Sar13, LS19,LM18], and a first reading might be difficulty for those not familiar with the referred literature. Unfortunately, a self-contained exposition would lead to a lengthy manuscript, thus preventing to focus on the novelty of the work.…”

“…To show that the equilibrium states µ obtained in Theorem C are Bernoulli, we apply a result by Ledrappier, Lima, and Sarig [22] showing that if M is any 2-dimensional manifold, ϕ : T 1 M → R is Hölder or a scalar multiple of ϕ u , and µ is a positive entropy ergodic equilibrium measure for the geodesic flow on T 1 M , then µ is Bernoulli. Although their result is stated for positive entropy measures, this assumption is only used to guarantee that the measure has a positive Lyapunov exponent, see [23,Theorem 1.3]. Since our measure µ is hyperbolic by Corollary 3.7, it follows that [22] applies.…”

“…It follows from work of Ledrappier, Lima, and Sarig [23,22] that these equilibrium states are Bernoulli, see §9. For rank 1 surfaces, this uniqueness result is optimal; any invariant measure supported on Sing is an equilibrium state for qϕ u when q ≥ 1.…”

“…It implies that all Reeb flows on (M, ξ) have positive topological entropy. It then follows from the works of Katok [24,25], and Lima and Sarig [27] that every Reeb flow on (M, ξ) has a compact invariant set on which the dynamics is conjugated to a subshift of finite type; i.e every Reeb flow on (M, ξ) contains a "horseshoe" as a subsystem. Before giving the precise statements of our results we begin by recalling some necessary notions from contact geometry and dynamical systems.…”
