1. Introduction and statement of the main results Let ft be a smooth family of (piecewise) smooth maps on a manifold M , and let us suppose that for each ft there is a physical (or SBR) probability µt on M . Given an observable φ : M → R, we can ask if the function Rφ : [0, 1] −→ R R t 7−→ φ dµt

is differentiable and if we can find an explicit formula for its derivative. The study of this question is the so called linear response problem. D. Ruelle showed that Rφ is differentiable and also gave the formula for Rφ ′ , in the case of smooth uniformly hyperbolic dynamical systems (see Ruelle in [16] and [17], and Baladi and Smania in [4] for more details). In the setting of smooth families of piecewise expanding unimodal maps, Baladi and Smania (see [2]) proved that if we have a C 2 family of piecewise expanding unimodal maps of class C 3 , then Rφ is differentiable in t0 , with φ ∈ C 1+Lip , provided that the family ft is tangent to the topological class of ft0 at t = t0 . It turns out that the family s 7→ fs is tangent to the topological class of ft at the parameter t if and only if J(ft , vt ) =

M t −1 X k=0

vt (ftk (c)) = 0, Dftk (ft (c))

where vt = ∂s fs |s=t and Mt is either the period of the critical point c if c is periodic, or ∞, otherwise (see [3]). Now, let us consider a C 2 family of piecewise expanding unimodal maps of class C 4 that is transversal to the topological classes of piecewise unimodal maps, that is (1)

J(ft , vt ) =

M t −1 X k=0

vt (ftk (c)) 6= 0 Dftk (ft (c))

for every t. Baladi and Smania, [2] and [5], proved that Rφ is not differentiable, for most of the parameters t, even if φ is quite regular. One can ask what is the regularity of the function Rφ in this case. We know from Keller [9] (see also Mazzolena [14]) that Rφ has modulus of continuity |h|(log(1/|h|) + 1). We will show the Central Limit Theorem for the modulus of continuity of the function Rφ where φ is a lipschitzian observable. Let  2  Pn−1  R Z φ ◦ ftj − φdµt j=0  dµt 6= 0.  √ σt2 = σt2 (φ) = lim n→∞ n Let t 7→ ft be a C 2 family of C 4 piecewise expanding unimodal maps.

be a transversal C family of mixing C 4 piecewise expanding unimodal maps ft : [0, 1] → [0, 1].

Ψ(t) = σt St Jt ℓt . and m is the Lebesgue measure normalized in such way that m([a, b]) = 1. Corollary 1.2. Under the same assumptions above, the function Rφ is not a lipschitzian function on any subset of [a, b] with positive Lebesgue measure. The proof of Corollary 1.2 will be given in the last section as a consequence of a stronger result (Corollary 9.1). 2. Families of piecewise expanding unimodal maps We begin this section by setting the one-parameter family of piecewise expanding unimodal maps. Definition 2.1. A piecewise expanding C r unimodal map f : [0, 1] → [0, 1] is a continuous map with a critical point c ∈ (0, 1), f (0) = f (1) = 0 and such that f |[0,c] and f |[c,1] are C r and 1 Df < 1. ∞

We say that f is mixing if f is topologically mixing on the interval [f 2 (c), f (c)]. For instance, if √ inf |Df (x)| > 2 x

then f is not renormalisable. In particular f is topologically mixing on [f 2 (c), f (c)]. We can see the set of all C r piecewise expanding unimodal maps that share the same critical point c ∈ (0, 1) as a convex subset of the affine subspace {f ∈

Let ft : [0, 1] → [0, 1], t ∈ [a, b] be a one-parameter family of piecewise expanding C 4 unimodal maps. We assume (1) For all t ∈ [a, b] the critical point of ft is c. (2) The maps ft are uniformly expanding, that is, there exist constants 1 < λ ≤ Λ < ∞ such that for all t ∈ [a, b], 1 1 Dft < λ and |Dft |∞ < Λ. ∞

(3) The map

is of class C 2 .

t ∈ [a, b] 7→ ft ∈ B 4

Each ft admits a unique absolutely continuous invariant probability measure µt and its density ρt has bounded variation (see [12]). By Keller (see [9]), (5)

|ρt+h − ρt |L1 ≤ C|h|(log

1 + 1). |h|

3. Good transversal families It turns out that we can cut the parameter interval of a transversal family ft in smaller intervals in such way that the family, when restricted to each one of those intervals satisfies stronger assumptions. Here, we introduce the notation of partitions following Schnellmann in [19]. Let us denote by K(t) = [ft2 (c), ft (c)] the support of ρt . Let Pj (t), j ≥ 1 be the partition on the dynamical interval composed by the maximal open intervals of smooth monotonicity for the map ftj : K(t) → K(t), where t is a fixed parameter value. Therefore, Pj (t) is the set of open intervals ω ⊂ K(t) such that ftj : ω → K(t) is C 4 and ω is maximal. We can also define analogous partitions on the parameter interval [a, b]. Let x0 : [a, b] −→ [0, 1] t 7−→ ft (c) be a C 2 map from the parameter interval into the dynamical interval. We will denote by xj (t) := ftj (x0 (t)), j ≥ 0, the orbit of the point x0 (t) under the map ft . Consider a interval J ⊂ [a, b]. Let us denote by Pj |J, j ≥ 1, the partition on the parameter interval composed by all open intervals ω in J such that xi (t) 6= c, for all i satisfying 0 ≤ i < j, that is fti (x0 (t)) = fti+1 (c) 6= c,

for all t ∈ ω, and such that ω is maximal, that is, if s ∈ ∂ω, then there exists 0 ≤ i < j such that xi (s) = c. The intervals ω ∈ Pj are also called cylinders.

We quote almost verbatim the definition of the Banach spaces Vα given in [19]. The spaces Vα were introduced by Keller [10]. Let m be the Lesbegue measure on the interval [0, 1] Definition 3.1. (Banach space Vα ) For every ψ : [0, 1] → R be a function in L1 (m) and γ > 0, we can define osc (ψ, γ, x) = ess sup ψ|(x−γ,x+γ) − ess inf ψ|(x−γ,x+γ). Given A > 0 and 0 < α ≤ 1 denote

(IV) For all ϕ ∈ Vα such that σt (ϕ) > 0 the functions ξi : [c − δ, d + δ] → R i ≥ 1, defined by   Z 1 i+1 ϕ(ft (c)) − ϕdµt ξi (t) = σt (ϕ) satisfy the ASIP for every exponent γ > 2/5. (V) There are positive constants C˜1 , C˜2 , C˜3 , C˜4 , C˜5 , C˜6 and β ∈ (0, 1) such that for every t ∈ [c−δ, d+δ] and its respective density ρt of the unique absolutely continuous invariant probability of ft A1 .

(VI) Let j0 > 0 be the constant given by condition (I). For all i, j satisfying 0 ≤ i, j ≤ j0 and t ∈ [c, d], such that t + h ∈ [c − δ, d + δ] we have c∈ / Ii,j (t, h),

where Ii,j (t, h) is the smallest interval that contains the set i+j+1 i+1 i {ft+h (c), fti+j+1 (c), ft+h ◦ ftj+1 (c), ft+h ◦ ftj (c)}.

Remark 3.4. Conditions (I), (II) and (III) are exactly those that appears in Schnellmann [19], with obvious cosmetic modifications. Remark 3.5. If ft is a good transversal family then of course Eq. (4) converges to Z y s2 1 √ e− 2 ds 2π −∞ if and only if ) (   Rφ (t + h) − Rφ (t) 1 p ≤y (10) lim m t ∈ [a, b] : h→0 h Ψ(t) − log |h| converges to it as well.

Proposition 3.6. Let ft , t ∈ [a, b], be a transversal C 2 family of mixing C 4 piecewise expanding unimodal maps. Then there is a countable family of intervals [ci , di ] ⊂ [a, b], i ∈ ∆ ⊂ N, with pairwise disjoint interior and [ m([a, b] \ [ci , di ]) = 0, i∈∆

such that ft is a good transversal family on each [ci , di ], i ∈ ∆.

Proof. Since ft is transversal, there is just a countable subset Q of parameters where ft has a periodic critical point. It is easy to see that the subset Q′ ⊂ Q of parameters t such that ft is not good and it has a periodic critical point is finite, so without loss of generality we can assume that all maps ft are good. Consider Ω = [a, b] \ (Q ∪ {a, b}). It follows from the analysis in the proof of [4, Theorem 4.1] and [1, Proposition 3.3] that for every t′ ∈ Ω there exists ǫ1 = ǫ1 (t′ ) such that if [c, d] ⊂ (t′ − ǫ1 , t′ + ǫ1 ) then the family ft restricted to [c, d] satisfies condition (V ). By Schnellmann [19] for every t′ ∈ Ω there exists ǫ2 = ǫ2 (t′ ) such that if [c, d] ⊂ (t′ − ǫ2 , t′ + ǫ2 ) then the family ft restricted to [c, d] satisfies conditions (I), (II), (III) and (IV ). We claim that for every t′ ∈ Ω there is ǫ3 = ǫ3 (t′ ) such that if [c, d] ⊂ (t′ − ǫ3 , t′ + ǫ3 ) and δ > 0 is small enough then the family ft , with t ∈ [c, d], satisfies condition (V I). Indeed, since c is not a periodic point of ft′ , there is ǫ3 (t′ ) > 0 such that (11) η := min {|fti+j+1 (c) − c| : 0 ≤ j ≤ j0 and 0 < i ≤ j0 , t ∈ (t′ − ǫ3 , t′ + ǫ3 )} > 0,

Since t ∈ [t′ − ǫ3 /2, t′ + ǫ3 /2] 7→ ft is a C 2 family the map i (t, h) 7→ ft+h (ftj (c))

is continuous for every 0 < i ≤ j0 and every j satisfying 0 ≤ j ≤ j0 . Therefore there is γ1 := γ1 (i, j) < ǫ3 /2 such that, if |h| ≤ γ1 and t ∈ [t′ − ǫ3 /2, t′ + ǫ3 /2], then i+1 j |ft+h (ft (c)) − fti+1 (ftj (c))| ≤ η,

and i |ft+h (ftj+1 (c)) − fti (ftj+1 (c))| ≤ η,

for all 0 ≤ j ≤ j0 and 0 < i ≤ j0 . Let γ := min{γ1 (i, j) : 0 ≤ j ≤ j0 and 0 < i ≤ j0 }. In particular if |h| ≤ γ1 and t ∈ [t′ − ǫ3 /2, t′ + ǫ3 /2] then c ∈ / Ii,j (t, h) for all 0 ≤ j ≤ j0 , 0 < i ≤ j0 . Let ǫ4 (t′ ) = min{ǫ1 (t′ ), ǫ2 (t′ ), γ}. Consider the family F of intervals [c, d] ⊂ [a, b] such that [c, d] ⊂ (t′ − ǫ4 (t′ ), t′ + ǫ4 (t′ )) for some t′ ∈ Ω. By the Vitali’s covering theorem there exists a countable family of intervals [ci , di ] ⊂ [a, b], [ci , di ] ∈ F , i ∈ ∆ ⊂ N, with pairwise disjoint interior and [ [ m([a, b] \ [ci , di ]) = m(Ω \ [ci , di ]) = 0. i∈∆

i∈∆

 We will also need Lemma 3.7. Let 2

t ∈ [a, b] 7→ ft

be a good transversal C family of good and mixing C 4 piecewise expanding unimodal maps ft : [0, 1] → [0, 1].

If φ is a lipschitzian observable satisfying σt 6= 0 for every t ∈ [a, b] then

J = inf |J(ft , vt )|, σ = inf σt (φ), s = inf St , ℓ = inf ℓt , t∈[a,b]

t∈[a,b]

t∈[a,b]

t∈[a,b]

are positive, where St and ℓt are as defined in Eqs. (3) and (2) respectively. Moreover J(ft , vt ) does not changes signs for t ∈ [a, b]. In particular the function t → Ψ(t) = σt St Jt ℓt does not change signs for t ∈ [a, b] and satisfies inf |Ψ(t)| > 0. t

Proof. The function t 7→ J(ft , vt )

is not continuous in a transversal family (see [3]). Indeed, its points of discontinuity lie on the parameters t where the critical point c is periodic for ft , where this function have one-sided limits. However, in [3], Baladi and Smania showed that if vn converges to v and fn converges to f , then if J(fn , vn ) → 0 when n → ∞ we have J(f, v) = 0 and if J(f, v) 6= 0 then J(fn , vn ) has the same sign that J(f, v) for n large. From this it follows that J > 0 and that J(ft , vt ) does not changes signs for t ∈ [a, b]. In [19], Schnellmann proved that t 7→ σt is Hölder continuous.

Therefore, σ > 0. Note that St = s1 (t) > 0 everywhere, where s1 is as defined in Eq. (9). Suppose that limn s1 (tn ) = 0. Remember that (see [2] and [1]), Mtn −1

where ρabs,tn is absolutely continuous, (ρabs,tn )′ has bounded variation and |(ρabs,tn )′ |BV ≤ C.

(13)

Taking a subsequence, if necessary, we can assume that limn tn = t and that ρtn converges in L1 (m) to ρt . But if limn s1 (tn ) = 0 then by Eqs. (12) and (13) we conclude that ρt is a continuous function. But this is absurd since s1 (t) 6= 0 for every t.  Remark 3.8. As an example, we have the family of tent maps defined by  tx, if x < 1/2, ft (x) = t − tx, if x ≥ 1/2, t ∈ (1, 2). Tsujii [20] show that the family of tent maps satisfies J(ft0 , ∂t ft |t=t0 ) 6= 0 at every parameter t0 where ft0 has a periodic turning point. So the restriction of this family to a small neighborhood of such parameter t0 is a transversal family. We can observe that, since ft is a piecewise linear map for all t, the density ρt is purely a saltus function. 4. Decomposition of the Newton quotient for good families In this section we will assume that ft is a good family. In order to prove Theorem 1.1 we will decompose the quotient Rφ (t + h) − Rφ (t) h in two parts which will be called the Wild part and the Tame part of the decomposition. Definition 4.1. Let g : [0, 1] → R be a function of bounded variation and t ∈ [a, b]. We define the projection Πt : BV g

−→ BV R 7−→ g − ρt gdm.

Indeed Πt is also a well defined operator in L1 (m) and sup |Πt |BV < ∞ and sup |Πt |L1 (m) < ∞. t

t

R A function g ∈ L (m) belongs to Πt (BV ) if and only if g dm = 0. In particular the operator (I − Lt )−1 is well R defined on Πt (BV ).We are going to use the following observation quite often. If g dm = 0, and 1

with gi ∈ BV and the convergence of the series is in the BV norm, then ∞ X (I − Lt )−1 Πt (gi ). (I − Lt )−1 g = i=0

Note also that

Πt ◦ Lt = Lt ◦ Πt . Proposition 4.2. Assume that ft is a family of piecewise expanding unimodal maps as defined in section 2 and let Lt be the Perron-Frobenius operator. Then   ρt+h − ρt Lt+h (ρt ) − Lt (ρt ) . = (I − Lt+h )−1 h h Proof. Note that (I − Lt )−1 is well defined in Πt (BV ) and is given by (I − Lt )−1 (ρ) =

∞ X i=0

Lit (ρ),

for every ρ ∈ Πt (BV ). Therefore, the result follows as an immediate consequence of the identity (I − Lt+h )(ρt+h − ρt ) = (I − Lt+h )(ρt ) − (I − Lt )(ρt ).  Proposition 4.3. Let ft be a C 2 family of good mixing C 4 piecewise expanding unimodal maps that satisfies property (V) in Definition 3.3. There exists C > 0 with the following property. For every t ∈ [a, b] such that the critical point of ft is not periodic, we can decompose Lt+h (ρt ) − Lt (ρt ) = Φh + rh h where ∞

  1X sk+1 (t)Πt+h Hft+h (ftk (c)) − Hft (ftk (c)) Φh = h k=0

and rh satifies

Z

rh dm = 0

and

sup |rh |BV < C. h6=0

We will prove Proposition 4.3 in Section 8. We will call W(t, h) = (I −Lt+h )−1 Φh the Wild part and (I −Lt+h )−1 rh will be called the Tame part of the decomposition. Note that Z Z Rφ (t + h) − Rφ (t) = φW(t, h) dm + φ(I − Lt+h )−1 rh dm. h Definition 4.4. Given h 6= 0 and t ∈ [0, 1], let N := N (t, h) be the unique integer such that 1 1 ≤ |h| < (14) . N +1 N |Dft (ft (c))| |Dft (ft (c))|

There is some ambiguity in the definition of N (t, h) when ftk (c) = c for some k > 0. But since the family is transversal, there exists just a countable number of such parameters (see [3]).

The following proposition gives us a control on the orbit of the critical point. Proposition 4.5. For large K > 0 and every γ > 0 there exists δ > 0 such that for every small h0 there are sets Γδh′ ,h0 , Γδh0 ⊂ I = [a, b], with Γδh′ ,h0 ⊂ Γδh0 , for every h′ satisfying 0 < h′ < h0 , with the following properties A. limh′ →0 m(Γδh′ ,h0 ) = m(Γδh0 ) > 1 − γ. B. If t ∈ Γδh′ ,h0 and |h| ≤ h′ then there exists N3 (t, h) such that ⌊

where m is the normalized Lebesgue measure on I = [a, b]. We will prove Proposition 4.5 in Section 6. The following proposition is one of the most important results in this work. It relates the Birkhoff sum of the observable φ with the Wild part. This fact will allow us to use the almost sure invariance principle obtained by Schnellmann [19]. Proposition 4.6. Let ft be a good transversal family. Let φ : [0, 1] → R be a lipschitzian observable. If t ∈ Γδh,h0 , where Γδh,h0 is the set given by Proposition 4.5, then    Z Z N3 (t,h)  X 1 . φ(ftj (c)) − φdµt + O log log φ W(t, h)dm = s1 (t)J(ft , vt ) |h| j=0 We will prove Proposition 4.6 in Section 7. Proposition 4.7. Let ft be a good transversal family. Let φ : [0, 1] → R be a lipschitzian observable. If t ∈ Γδh,h0 , where Γδh,h0 is the set given by Proposition 4.5, then    Z N3 (t,hn )  X 1 Rφ (t + hn ) − Rφ (t) j φ(ft (c)) − φdµt + O log log = s1 (t)J(ft , vt )hn |hn | j=0 Z 1 φ(I − Lt+h )−1 rh dm. + s1 (t)J(ft , vt ) The proof follows directly from Propositions 4.3 and 4.6.

When there are not confusion with respect to which family we are dealing with, we will omit f in the notation. Lemma 5.1 (Functional Central Limit Theorem). Let ft be a good transversal C 2 family of C 4 unimodal maps and σt (φ) 6= 0 for every t. For each t ∈ [a, b] let us consider the continuous function θ 7→ XN (θ, t), where XN (θ, t) =

Considering the normalized Lebesgue measure on t ∈ [a, b], for each N the function t 7→ XN (·, t) induces a measure on the space of continuous functions and such D measures converges in distribution to the Wiener measure. We denote XN −→N W. Proof. By Schnellmann [19] we know that the sequence of functions   Z 1 1 ξi (t) = φ(fti+1 (c)) − φdµt σt 0 satisfies the ASIP for every exponent error larger than 2/5. By [15, Theorem E], the ASIP implies the Functional Central Limit Theorem for XN (θ, t).  We are going to need the following Proposition 5.2 ([6]). If νn P −→n L, an

Proof. See [6], page 152. From now on we will denote Z y s2 1 e− 2 ds. DN (y) = √ 2π −∞ The following lemma will be used many times Lemma 5.3 (A variation of Slutsky’s Theorem). Let An : [0, 1] → R be functions and Ωn ⊂ [0, 1] be such that lim inf m(Ωn ) > 1 − γ, n

and for every y ∈ R the sequence

an (y) = m(t ∈ Ωn : An (t) ≤ y)

eventually belongs to

O(y, ǫ) = (DN (y) − ǫ, DN (y) + ǫ),

that is, there is n0 = n0 (y) such that an (y) ∈ O(y, ǫ) for every n ≥ n0 . Then A. There exists δ > 0 such that if Bn : [0, 1] → R is a function such that lim inf m(t ∈ [0, 1] : |Bn (t) − 1| < δ) > 1 − γ, n

then the sequence bn (y) = m(t ∈ [0, 1] : An (t)Bn (t) ≤ y)

eventually belong to O(y, ǫ + 3γ). B. There exists δ > 0 such that if Bn : [0, 1] → R is a function such that lim inf m(t ∈ [0, 1] : |Bn (t)| < δ) > 1 − γ, n

then the sequence bn (y) = m(t ∈ [0, 1] : An (t) + Bn (t) ≤ y)

eventually belong to O(y, ǫ + 3γ). Proof of A. Define

n DA (y) = {t ∈ Ωn : An (t) ≤ y} n DB = {t ∈ [0, 1] : |Bn (t) − 1| < δ} n DAB (y) = {t ∈ [0, 1] : An (t)Bn (t) ≤ y} Choose δ > 0 such that

sup sup |DN (y) − DN (y(1 − δ ′ ))| < γ, y∈R |δ ′ | 0 there exists Q1 with the following property. Let ft be a good transversal C 2 family of C 4 piecewise expanding unimodal maps with σt (φ) 6= 0 for every t and Lt′ Q = sup 1 − < Q1 . Lt t,t′ ∈[c,d] Then for every h small enough we have ) (   1 Rφ (t + h) − Rφ (t) 1 p ≤y m t ∈ [c, d] : m([c, d]) h σt ℓt St Jt − log |h|

belongs to O(y, 13γ). Proof. Without loss of generality we assume that [c, d] = [0, 1]. It is enough to prove the following claim: For every sequence hn →n 0

and every γ > 0, the sequence (

eventually belong to the interval O(y, 12γ). Fix a large K > 0. By Proposition 4.5, for every γ > 0 there exist δ > 0, h0 > 0 and sets Γδh,h0 , Γδh0 ⊂ I, with Γδh,h0 ⊂ Γδh0 , for every h 6= 0 satisfying |h| < h0 , such that A. limh→0 m(Γδh,h0 ) = m(Γδh0 ) > 1 − γ. B. If t ∈ Γδh,h0 then there exists N3 (t, h) such that ǫ ⌊ log N (t, h)⌋ ≤ N (t, h) − N3 (t, h) ≤ C5 K log N (t, h) 2 and i+1 i c∈ / [ft+h ◦ ftj+1 (c), ft+h ◦ ftj (c)]

for all 1 ≤ j < N3 (t, h) and 0 ≤ i < N3 (t, h) − j. For all h 6= 0 and t ∈ [0, 1], define N4 (t, h) = N3 (t, h) if t ∈ Γδh,h0 and |h| < h0 , and N4 (t, h) = N (t, h), otherwise. Therefore, for B we have (20) for every (t, h). Since

N (t, h) − N4 (t, h) ≤ C5 K log N (t, h) 1

N (t,h)+1 |Dft (ft (c))|

we have

In particular if Lt0 , t)| ≤ 2HQα } Lt then lim inf n m(Dn ) > 1 − γ. Let us apply Lemma 5.3.B with Ωn = Dn , An (t) = L Yn (1, t) and Bn (t) = Yn ( Ltt0 , t) − Yn (1, t). Observe that by Eq.(24) the sequence an (y) defined in Lemma 5.3 eventually belongs to O(y, ǫ) for all ǫ > 0. Hence, taking ǫ = γ, there exists δ1 = δ1 (γ) > 0 such that if 2HQα < δ we have Lt (26) m(t ∈ [0, 1] : Yn ( 0 , t) ≤ y) Lt eventually belongs to O(y, 4γ). Choose Q0 = Q0 γ > 0 such that if Q < Q0 then 2HQα < δ1 . Note that r Z ⌊N4 (t,hn )⌋−1 X  Lt0 Lt0 1 k p , t) = (27) Yn ( φ(ft (c)) − φ dµt .

Since m(Γδh,h0 ) > 1−γ, we can apply Lemma 5.3 (remember that N4 (t, h) = N3 (t, h) for t ∈ Γδh,h0 ) to conclude that the sequence m(t ∈ [0, 1] :

Rφ (t + hn ) − Rφ (t) p ≤ y) St σt ℓt Jt hn − log |hn |

eventually belong to the interval O(y, 13γ).



Lemma 5.7. Let [ci , di ] ⊂ [a, b], i ∈ ∆ ⊂ N, be intervals with pairwise disjoint interior and such that [ m([a, b] \ [ci , di ]) = 0. i∈∆

If t 7→ ft , with t ∈ [ci , di ], are good transversal families such that for all i ∈ ∆ and y ∈ R we have ) (   1 1 Rφ (t + h) − Rφ (t) p ≤y m t ∈ [ci , di ] : m([ci , di ]) h σt ℓt St Jt − log |h|

Proof. Define ( Ω(h, y) = and Ωi (h, y) =

Given ǫ ∈ (0, 1), choose i0 such that m(∪i>i0 [ci , di ]) < ǫ m([a, b]). For every i ≤ i0 there exists hi > 0 such that for every |h| < hi we have m(Ωi (h, y)) m([ci , di ]) ˆ = mini≤i hi . Let belongs to O(y, γ + ǫ). Let h 0 Ui0 (h, y) = ∪i≤i0 Ωi (h, y), and Wi0 (h, y) = ∪i≤i0 [ci , di ]. ˆ we have Then for |h| < h X m([ci , di ]) m(Ωi (h, y)) m(Ui0 (h, y)) = m(Wi0 (h, y)) m(Wi0 (h, y)) m([ci , di ]) i≤i0

is a convex combination of elements of O(y, γ + ǫ), then it belongs to O(y, γ + ǫ). We conclude that (DN (y) − γ − 2ǫ)m([a, b])

≤ (DN (y) + γ + ǫ)m(Wi0 (h, y)) + ǫ m([a, b]) ≤ (DN (y) + γ + 2ǫ)m([a, b]).

 Proof of Theorem 1.1. Remember that t 7→ Lt is a continuous and positive function on [a, b]. Given γ > 0, let Q1 > 0 be as in Proposition 5.6. Then there are k > 0 and intervals [ci , di ], i ≤ k = k(γ), which forms a partition F of [a, b] and 1 − Lt′ < Q1 Lt t,t′ ∈[ci ,di ] sup

for every i ≤ k. Then the restrictions of the family ft to each one of the intervals [ci , di ] satisfy the assumptions of Proposition 5.6. Now it remains to apply Lemma 5.7 to the full family and the partition F . Since γ > 0 is arbitrary we completed the proof of Theorem 1.1.

6. Controlling how the orbit of the critical point moves The aim of this section is to prove Proposition 4.5. Let us denote by I = [0, 1] the interval of parameters. Remark 6.1. In Schnellmann [19, Lemma 4.4] it is proven that there is C1 > 0 such that if N ≥ 1, |t1 − t2 | < 1/N and if ω1 ∈ PN (t1 ) and ω2 ∈ PN (t2 ) have the same combinatorics up to the (N − 1)-th iteration then DftN1 (x1 ) Df N (x ) ≤ C1 , 2 t2

for all x1 ∈ ω1 and x2 ∈ ω2 . We also observe that if x, y ∈ ω ∈ PN (t), then by the bounded distortion lemma, there is C2 > 0 such that Df j (x) t ≤ C2 , Dftj (y) for every j ≤ N . Let

˜ = sup M

sup |∂t ftj (c)|,

0≤j≤j0 t∈[a,b]

and let us define (31)

˜ }, C3 = max{C, M

where C is the constant given by the transversality condition (see Eqs (6) and (7)) and C4 = sup sup |∂t ft (x)|. t∈[0,1] x∈[0,1]

To prove Proposition 4.5 we will need Lemma 6.2. Let N3 ∈ N and ω ∈ PN3 be such that 1 . |ω| ≤ N3 If t ∈ ω and

(32)

dist(t, ∂ω) > (M + 1)|h|,

where (33) Then (34)

M > max{C1 C3 C4 , C12 C2 C32 } c∈ / Ii,j (t, h)

for all 0 ≤ j < N3 and 0 ≤ i < N3 − j, where Ii,j (t, h) is the smallest interval that contains the set i+j+1 i+1 i ◦ ftj+1 (c), ft+h ◦ ftj (c)}. {ft+h (c), fti+j+1 (c), ft+h

Proof. Let j0 be as defined in condition (I) (see Definition 3.3). If j > j0 define i1 = 0 and if 0 ≤ j < j0 define i1 = j0 . First of all, we observe that if 0 ≤ j ≤ j0 and 0 ≤ i ≤ j0 then Eq. (34) follows from condition (V I). In particular (35)

c∈ / Ii,j (t, h) for every i < i1 .

Hence, it is left to consider the cases when

j0 < j < N3 and 0 < i ≤ N3 − j

and We claim that

0 < j < j0 and j0 < i ≤ N3 − j. c∈ / Ii1 ,j .

(36)

Indeed, if 0 ≤ j ≤ j0 , it follows from condition (V I). Now, if j0 < j < N3 , due to condition (I), Eqs. (6) and (7) the maps θ ∈ ω → fθk (c) ∈ [0, 1] are diffeomorphisms on their images for every j0 < k ≤ N3 and they do not contain the critical point in its image, for all j0 < k < N3 , θ ∈ ω. In particular if ω = (s1 , s2 ) then c∈ / {fθk (c) : θ ∈ ω} = (fsk1 (c), fsk2 (c))

(37)

for every j0 < k < N3 . Therefore, k c∈ / [ftk (c), ft+h (c)].

By the Mean Value Theorem and Remark 6.1, for every j < N3 j+1 |ftj+1 (c)−ft+h (c)| = |∂θ fθj+1 (c)|θ=θ1 ||h| ≤ C3 |Dfθj1 (fθ1 (c))||h| ≤ C3 C1 |Dftj (ft (c))||h|.

Moreover, |ft+h (ftj (c)) − ft (ftj (c))| ≤ |∂θ fθ (ftj (c))|θ=θ2 ||h| ≤ C4 |h|.

(38)

By assumption, d([t, t + h], ∂ω) > M |h|. Thus, |ω| ≥ (2M + 1)|h|.

(39)

If ∂ω = {s1 , s2 } and s ∈ [t, t + h] then (c) − fsk+1 (c)| |fsk+1 i

|∂θ fθk+1 (c)|θ=θ3 ||si − s| 1 |Dfθk3 (fθ3 (c))|M |h| C3 1 |Dftk (ft (c))|M |h| C1 C3

for every k < N3 . Taking k = j we obtain |ft+h (ftj (c)) − ft (ftj (c))| (41)

M |h| C1 C3



C4 |h| ≤



M (c) − ftj+1 (c)|. |Dftj (ft (c))||h| ≤ |fsj+1 i C1 C3

Hence, (42)

(c)). (c), fsj+1 [ft+h (ftj (c)), ft (ftj (c))] ⊂ (fsj+1 2 1

In particular c∈ / I0,j (t, h) = Ii1 ,j (t, h).

We concluded the proof of our claim. Now fix 0 ≤ j < N3 . We are going to prove by induction on i that, for every i1 ≤ i < N3 − j, (43)

c∈ / Ii,j (t, h),

22

AMANDA DE LIMA AND DANIEL SMANIA

The case i = i1 follows from Eq. (36). Now suppose that Eq. (43) holds up to i. Provided that i ≥ i1 , we have i + j + 1 > j0 . Therefore, by Eq. (37), with k = i + j + 2, we obtain (i+1)+j

Moreover by induction assumption and Eq. (35) , we have for every 0 ≤ k ≤ i c 6∈ Ik,j (t, h)

Thus the points j+1 ft+h (c) and ftj+1 (c)

have the same combinatorics up to i iterations of the map ft+h . Then by Remark 6.1 j+1 i+1 j+1 i+1 j+1 i+1 j+1 |ft+h (ft (c)) − ft+h (ft+h (c))| ≤ C2 |Dft+h (ft+h (c))||ftj+1 (c) − ft+h (c)| i+1 j+1 ≤ C2 |Dft+h (ft+h (c))||∂θ fθj+1 (c)|θ=θ4 ||h|

where

q = min{(k + 1)τ, ⌊K log N ⌋}, one of the following statements holds: A. For every i satisfying we have

Let CL be such that |fti (c) − fsi (c)| ≤ CL |t − s|

for all i ≤ τ , s, t ∈ [0, 1].

Lemma 6.4. There is C > 0 such that the following holds. If ω ˜ ∈ Pi , i > j0 , with |˜ ω| < 1/i and t ∈ ω ˜ then |xi (˜ ω )| |xi (˜ ω )| 1 ≤ |˜ ω| ≤ C . i i C |Dft (ft (c))| |Dft (ft (c))|

Moreover, if ω ∈ PN \ EN then there exists i satisfying such that ω ⊂ ω ˜ ∈ Pi and if

then

|xi (˜ ω )| ≥ δω˜

and (48) for every t ∈ ω ˜.

δω˜ 1 1 ≤ |˜ ω| ≤ C C |Dfti (ft (c))| |Dfti (ft (c))|

Proof. If t ∈ ω ˜ ∈ Pk then by the Mean Value Theorem for some θ1 ∈ ω ˜ ω |, |xk (˜ ω )| = |∂θ fθk+1 (c)|θ=θ1 ||˜

then

|Dfθk1 (fθ1 (c))||˜ ω| |Dftk (ft (c))||˜ ω| ≤ ≤ |xk (˜ ω )| C1 C3 C3

and ω | ≤ C1 C3 |Dftk (ft (c))||˜ ω |, |xk (˜ ω )| ≤ C3 |Dfθk1 (fθ1 (c))||˜ therefore, Eq. (47) holds. Now assume ω ∈ PN \ EN . Then there exists k satisfying   K log N 0≤k≤ τ

Since δω˜ ≥ 0 depends only on a fixed finite number of iterations of the family ft , it will be easy to give positive lower bounds to it that hold for most of the intervals ω ˜ . Indeed define ΛδN0 = {t ∈ [0, 1] : for every N ≥ N0 if t ∈ ω ∈ PN −2⌊K log N ⌋ then δω > δ}. ′

Note that ΛδN0 ⊂ ΛδN0 +1 . Moreover δ ′ < δ implies ΛδN0 ⊃ ΛδN0 . Lemma 6.5. Given γ > 0 there exists δ > 0 such that lim |ΛδN0 | ≥ 1 − γ.

Choose N0 large enough such that Thus,

Definition 6.10. Given δ > 0 and h0 > 0, define Γδh0 as the set of all parameters t ∈ [0, 1] such that for every h, 0 < |h| ≤ h0 , there exists k satisfying N (t, h) − 2⌊ǫ log N (t, h)⌋ ≤ k ≤ N (t, h) − ⌊ǫ log N (t, h)⌋ such that if t ∈ ω ˆ ∈ Pk then |xk (ˆ ω )| > δ. Given t ∈ Γδh0 and h 6= 0, let N2 (t, h) be the largest k with this property. Definition 6.11. Given h and t ∈ [0, 1], define (55)

Proof. By Corollary 6.9 there exist δ > 0 and N0 such that m(ΛδN0 ∩ ΩN0 ) > 1 − γ.

Choose h0 such

ˆ1 (h0 ) > N0 . N

Let |h| ≤ h0 . Then

N (t, h) − ⌊K log N (t, h)⌋ ≥ N0 . If t ∈ ΛδN0 ∩ ΩN0 , choosing ω ˜ such that t ∈ ω ˜ ∈ PN (t,h)−⌊K log N (t,h)⌋ then ω ˜ 6∈ EN (t,h)−⌊K log N (t,h)⌋ .

Hence, by Lemma 6.4 there exists k satisfying (here N = N (t, h)) N − ⌊K log N ⌋ − ⌊K log(N − ⌊K log N ⌋)⌋ ≤ k ≤ N − ⌊K log N ⌋

such that if t ∈ ω ˜⊂ω ˆ ∈ Pk then since t ∈

ΛδN0 ,

|xk (ˆ ω )| ≥ δωˆ > δ

so that CL |ˆ ω| < δ < δω˜ . Therefore, Γδh0 ⊃ ΛδN0 ∩ ΩN0 .



Definition 6.13. Given h0 > 0 and δ > 0, for every h such that |h| ≤ h0 let Aδh,h0 be a covering of Γδh0 by intervals ω with the following properties P1 . There exists t ∈ Γδh0 such that t ∈ ω ∈ PN2 (t,h) . P2 . If t′ ∈ Γδh0 and t′ ∈ ω then ω ′ ⊂ ω, where t′ ∈ ω ′ ∈ PN2 (t′ ,h) . P3 . There does not exist t′′ ∈ Γδh0 such that t′′ ∈ ω ′′ ∈ PN2 (t′′ ,h) and ω $ ω ′′ .

One can check that one such collection Aδh,h0 does exist. Indeed, consider the covering of Γδh0 given by {ω : there exists t ∈ Γδh0 such that t ∈ ω ∈ PN2 (t,h) }.

Of course this covering satisfies property P1 . Remove from this covering all intervals ω that do not satisfy property P3 . Then the remaining collection is a covering of Γδh0 satisfying properties P1 , P2 and P3 . Note also that the distinct intervals in Aδh,h0 are pairwise disjoint. Indeed, if ω, ω ′ ∈ Aδh,h0 , with ω 6= ω ′ and ω ∩ ω ′ 6= ∅ then either ω $ ω ′ or ω ′ $ ω, which is in contradiction with property P3 . We note that |Aδh,h0 | ≥ m(Γδh0 ), since Aδh,h0 covers Γδh0 . Here |Aδh,h0 | denotes the Lebesgue measure of the union of the intervals in the family Aδh,h0 . Lemma 6.14. If h0 is small enough there are C5 > 0 and C6 > 0 such that the following holds. Given t′ ∈ Γδh0 , let ω be the unique interval in Aδh,h0 such that t′ ∈ ω. Let t ∈ Γδh0 be such that t ∈ ω ∈ PN2 (t,h) . Then ǫ (56) ⌊ log N (t′ , h)⌋ ≤ N (t′ , h) − N2 (t, h) ≤ C5 K log N (t′ , h) 2 and (57) ′

 Proof of Proposition 4.5. By Lemma 6.12 for every γ > 0 there exists δ > 0 such that for every small h0 we have m(Γδh0 ) > 1 − γ. Choose M satisfying Eq. (33). Define ˆ δ \Q, Γδh,h0 = Γ h,h0 ˆδ where Γ h,h0 is the set defined in Lemma 6.15 and Q is the countable set of parameters where ft has a periodic critical point. By Lemma 6.15 Property A. holds. Let t′ ∈ Γδh,h0 , with |h| < h0 . There exists i ≥ i(h) such that hi+1 ≤ |h| ≤ hi ,

where hi = (1 − ǫ)i h0 . Thus, N (t′ , h) = N (t′ , hj ), for some j ∈ {i, i + 1}, and consequently N2 (t′ , h) = N2 (t′ , hj ). Then there exists a unique ω ∈ Aδhj ,h0 and t ∈ Γδh0 such that t, t′ ∈ ω ∈ PN2 (t,h) . Moreover, since t′ ∈ Bhδ j ,h0 ,M we have dist(t′ , ∂ω) ≥

M +1 hj ≥ (M + 1)|h|. 1−ǫ

Define N3 (t′ , h) = N2 (t, h). By Lemma 6.14 we have Eq. (15) holds. By Lemma 6.2, Eq. (16) holds.  6.1. Proof of Lemma 6.7. Let J be the interval as in the statement of Lemma 6.7. The sets EN,J ‘live’ in the parameter space. To estimate its measures we will compare them, following [18], with the measures of similarly defined sets in the phase space of the map ftR . ˆN,tR the set of ˆN,tR ). Let J = [tL , tR ]. Denote by E Definition 6.16 (The sets E all η ∈ PN (tR ) such that for all k satisfying

there is not where such that

(˜ η ) ∈ Pj−kτ (tR ).

Using a strategy similar to the one applied in [18], we estimate the measure |EN,J | in terms of the measure |EˆN,tR |. To this end we need to define the map UJ . Recall that if F is a family of disjoint intervals then |F | denotes the sum of the measures of the intervals.

AMANDA DE LIMA AND DANIEL SMANIA

Definition 6.17 (The map UJ ). Let J = (tL , tR ). Consider the map UJ UJ : PN |J → PN (tR ) defined by Schnellmann [18, proof of Lemma 3.2] in the following way. Let ω ∈ PN |J and choose t ∈ ω. Since ω is a cylinder, it follows that xj (t) 6= c for all 0 ≤ j < N . Therefore, there is a cylinder ω(x0 (t)) in the partition PN (t) such that x0 (t) ∈ ω(x0 (t)). Let UJ (ω) = Ut,tR ,N (ω(x0 (t))), where Ut,tR ,N : PN (t) → PN (tR ) is such that for all η ∈ PN (t), the elements η and UJ (η) have the same combinatorics. symbt (fti (η)) = symbtR (ftiR (Ut,tR ,N (η)),

for 0 ≤ i < N . Schnellmann [18] proved that Ut,tR ,N is well defined when ft is a family of piecewise expanding unimodal maps satisfying our assumptions. In particular, if t < t′ and a certain symbolic dynamic appears in the dynamics of ft , then it also appears in the dynamics of ft′ . Therefore, the cylinder ω ′ = UJ (ω) = Ut,tR ,N (ω(x0 (t))) has the same combinatorics as ω, that is, symb(xj (ω)) = symbtR (ftjR (ω ′ )), when 0 ≤ j < N . Since there are not two cylinders in PN (tR ) with the same combinatorics, the element ω ′ does not depend on the choice of t ∈ ω. Therefore, UJ is well defined. ˆN,tR . Moreover, there exists C ′ ≥ 1 Lemma 6.18. If ω ∈ EN,J , then UJ (ω) ∈ E such that |ω| ≤ C ′ |UJ (ω)|.

 K log N k0 = . τ

Notice that

N ≥ N − ⌊K log N ⌋ + k0 τ > N − τ.

If N = N − ⌊K log N ⌋ + k0 τ define k1 = k0 . Otherwise define k1 = k0 + 1. For every k satisfying 0 ≤ k ≤ k1 , define families of intervals Fk in the following way. If k ≤ k0 define (70) ˆN,tR ,η′ with η ⊂ ηˆ} Fk = {ˆ η ⊂ η ′ : ηˆ ∈ PN −⌊K log N ⌋+kτ (tR ) and there is η ∈ E otherwise k = k1 = k0 + 1 and ˆN,tR ,η′ . Fk1 = E

(71)

ˆN,tR ,η′ . We claim that Note that if k1 = k0 then we also have Fk1 = E #Fk ≤ 2k .

(72)

We observe that, taking k = k1 in Eq. (72) we obtain Eq. (69). Note that either F0 is the empty set or F0 = {η ′ }. Then #F0 ≤ 1. Moreover, it is easy to see that if ηˆk+1 ∈ Fk , with k < k1 , then there exists a unique ηˆk ∈ Fk such that ηˆk+1 ⊂ ηˆk . Therefore, it is enough to show that for each ηˆk ∈ Fk , with k < k1 , there are at most two intervals ηˆk+1 ∈ Fk+1 such that ηˆk+1 ⊂ ηˆk . Indeed, given k < k1 , for every ηˆk ∈ Fk we have ηˆk ∈ PN −⌊K log N ⌋+kτ (tR ). Moreover, there is j such that for every ηˆk+1 ∈ Fk+1 we have ηˆk+1 ∈ PN −⌊K log N ⌋+j (tR ), with kτ < j ≤ ⌊K log N ⌋, and j ≤ kτ + τ . Note that if the closure of ηˆk+1 = (a, b) is contained in the interior of ηˆk , then for every x ∈ ηˆk+1 we have ftpR (x) 6= c, for every p < N − ⌊K log N ⌋+ kτ . Furthermore, there are na , nb such that ftnRa (a) = c = ftnRb (b), where N − ⌊K log N ⌋ + kτ ≤ na , nb < N − ⌊K log N ⌋ + j.

We conclude that

Since there are at most two intervals PN −⌊K log N ⌋+j (tR ) whose closure is not contained in the interior of ηˆk , we conclude that there are at most two intervals in Fk+1 that are contained in ηˆk .

Remember that since ω ′ ∈ PN (tR ), it follows that for all x ∈ ω ′ ftiR (x) 6= c for all 0 ≤ i < N,

(yi′ ).

N −⌊K log N ⌋

(ω ′ ) = (a1 , a2 ) is an open interval and, by Eq. (73), we have Then ftR N −⌊K log N ⌋ ′′ (η ). Therefore, there is an open interval ω ′′ = (y1′′ , y2′′ ) ⊂ η ′′ (a1 , a2 ) ⊂ ftR N −⌊K log N ⌋ (ω ′′ ) = (a1 , a2 ) with such that ftR N −⌊K log N ⌋

ai = ftR

(yi′′ ).

We claim that ω ′′ is also a cylinder. Indeed, let x ∈ ω ′′ . Then, since ω ′′ ⊂ η ′′ and η ′′ is a cylinder of level N − ⌊K log N ⌋, it follows that ftiR (x) 6= c,

and by Eq. (74), we can conclude that ftiR (x) 6= c for all i satisfying N −⌊K log N ⌋ ≤ i < N . Therefore, for all x ∈ ω ′′ , we have ftiR (x) 6= c for all 0 ≤ i < N . Now, let yi′′ ∈ ∂ω2 . Since ω ′′ ⊂ η ′′ , we have two cases. Case 1: yi′′ ∈ ∂η ′′ . In this case, there is an integer j, 0 ≤ j < N − ⌊K log N ⌋, such that ftjR (yi′′ ) = c. Case 2: yi′′ ∈ / ∂η ′′ . In this case, ftjR (yi′′ ) 6= c for all 0 ≤ j < N − ⌊K log N ⌋. Then N −⌊K log N ⌋ ′′ N −⌊K log N ⌋ ′ N −⌊K log N ⌋ ′′ (η ) = (yi ) belongs to the interior of ftR (yi ) = ai = ftR ftR N −⌊K log N ⌋ ′ ′ ′ (η ). Thus, yi belongs to the interior of η , which implies that there ftR exists j such that N − ⌊K log N ⌋ ≤ j < N such that ftjR (yi′ ) = ftjR (yi′′ ) = c. Therefore ω ′′ ∈ PN (tR ). ˆN,tR ,η′ .

In the same manner as for ω ′ , there exists a unique cylinder ω ˆ k ∈ PN −⌊K log N ⌋+j(k) , N −⌊K log N ⌋ N −⌊K log N ⌋ (ˆ ωk ). Note that ω ′′ ⊂ ω ˆ k . Let (˜ ωk ) = ftR ω ˆ k ⊂ η ′′ , such ftR ˆ k such that zk′′ ∈ ∂ ω N −⌊K log N ⌋

Proof of Lemma 6.7. Due to Lemma 6.18 it is enough to show that for every K′ < K there exists C > 0 and K = K(K′ ) > 0 such that if J ∈ Pj , j = j(N ) then ′

Note that ˆN,tR ⊂ f −(N −⌊K log N ⌋) (Ω). E tR Therefore, if µtR is the acip for ftR we have µtR (EˆN,tR ) ≤ µtR (Ω).

(77)

In [18, Section 6.2] it is shown that there is C1′ ≥ 1 such that for every density ρt of the unique acip of ft 1 ≤ ρt (x) ≤ C1′ , C1′ for µt -almost every x ∈ [0, 1], then 2

ˆN,tR | ≤ C1′ |Ω|. |E Since J ∈ Pj , j = j(N ), there exists an integer p, 0 ≤ p < j such that xp (tR ) = ftpR (ftR (c)) = c. In particular #{ftiR (c)}i≥0 = p + 1. Thus, N −⌊K log N ⌋

 7. Estimates for the Wild part

We start this section with a technical lemma. Lemma 7.1. Given a good transversal family ft there are constants L1 and L2 such that the following holds. Let ϕ : [0, 1] → R, |ϕ|L1 (m) > 0, be a function of bounded variation such that Z ϕdm = 0.

Then

(I − Lt )−1 (ϕ)

L1

  |ϕ|BV + L2 |ϕ|L1 . ≤ L1 log |ϕ|L1

Proof. Let ˜ > 0 such that

Lβ˜˜ |ϕ|BV = |ϕ|L1 .

And let j0 the smallest integer such that j0 − 1 ≤ ˜ ≤ j0 . Hence, we have −1

(I − Lt )

(ϕ) =

j0 X i=0

Lit (ϕ) +

∞ X l=1

Llt (Ljt0 (ϕ)).

R ˜ l |ϕ|BV , when ϕ dm = 0 Observing Assumption (V )A1 , the fact that ≤ Lθ ˜ and θ uniform in t, as well as the elementary facts that |Lt |L1 = 1 with constants L and | · |L1 ≤ | · |BV , we see that |Llt ϕ|BV

˜ L |Lj0 ϕ|BV 1−θ t  ˜  L C˜6 β j0 |ϕ|BV + C˜5 |ϕ|L1 + 1−θ  + (j0 + c2 ) |ϕ|L1 .

|(I − Lt )−1 (ϕ)|L1 ≤ (j0 + 1)|ϕ|L1 + ≤ (j0 + 1)|ϕ|L1  |ϕ|BV ≤ c1 β j0 |ϕ|L1

By the choice of j0 , we have the desired estimate.

The following proposition will be quite important to study the Wild part of the decomposition. Denote supp(ψ) = {x ∈ [0, 1] : ψ(x) 6= 0}.

Proposition 7.2. There exist K, K1′ , K2′ > 0 such that the following holds. For all i, k ≥ 0, t ∈ [0, 1] and h 6= 0, let   1 ϕk,i,h = Lit+h Hft+h (ftk (c)) − Hft (ftk (c)) . h Then ϕk,i,h 1 ≤ K, (78) L

and

K ϕk,i,h ≤ . BV |h|

(79)

Furthermore, (I − Lt+h )−1 Πt+h (ϕk,i,h ) (80)

L1

≤ K1′ max{0, log |ϕk,i,h |BV } + K2′ .

Proof. Note that

 i  Lt+h Hf (f k (c)) − Hf (f k (c)) 1 t t+h L t t ≤ Hft+h (ftk (c)) − Hft (ftk (c)) L1 ≤ (sup |vt |)|h|,

(81)

t

and, by Assumption (V) in Definition 3.3  i  Lt+h Hf (f k (c)) − Hf (f k (c)) t t+h BV t t ˆ ≤ 2C˜6 β i + C˜5 (sup |vt |)|h| ≤ C.

(82)

t

Thus, we have Eqs. (78) and (79). In particular |Πt+h (ϕk,i,h )|L1 (m) ≤ 2|ϕk,i,h |L1 (m) ≤ 2K,

and if h is small

|Πt+h (ϕk,i,h )|BV ≤ |ϕk,i,h |BV + |ϕk,i,h |BV sup |ρt |BV ≤ C|ϕk,i,h |BV , t∈[0,1]

where C ≥ 1. Now we can easily obtain Eq. (80) applying Lemma 7.1.  Proposition 7.3. Let φ be a Lipchitz function. There exists K > 0 such that the following holds. Let t ∈ Γδh′ ,h0 and 0 < |h| ≤ h′ . Then   1 K (83) var Lit+h Hft+h (ftk (c)) − Hft (ftk (c)) ≤ , h |h||Dfti (ftk+1 (c))|

k+1 (c), ft+h (ftk (c)), ft (ftk (c)) belong to the same Proof. By Eq. (16), the points ft+h i interval of monotonicity of ft+h . Let

ζ : Dom(ζ) → Im(ζ) be an inverse branch associated to such interval of monotonicity, that is, ζ is a i diffeomorphism such that ft+h (ζ(y)) = y for every y ∈ Dom(ζ) and k+1 {ft+h (c), ft+h (ftk (c)), ft (ftk (c))} ⊂ Im(ζ).

Hence,

(85)

  Lit+h Hft+h (ftk (c)) − Hft (ftk (c)) (x)   1 = 1 (x) H k (c)) (ζ(x)) − Hf (f k (c)) (ζ(x)) . Dom(ζ) f (f t i (ζ(x)) t+h t t Dft+h

There is a constant K ≥ 1 such that for all t ∈ [0, 1], h, and i, and every interval i of monotonicity Q of ft+h we have Df i (y ) 1 t+h 1 ≤ i (y ) ≤ K Dft+h K 2

for all y1 , y2 ∈ Q. Now we can estimate the variation of the function in Eq. (83) using familiar properties of the variation of functions (see Chapter 3 from Viana [21], for instance).    var[0,1] Lit+h Hft+h (ftk (c)) − Hft (ftk (c))

(86) and that

|Im(ζ)| ≤ K

1 |Dom(ζ)| ≤K . k+1 k+1 i i |Dft+h (ft+h (c))| |Dft+h (ft+h (c))|

Therefore, (87)

   var[0,1] Lit+h Hft+h (ftk (c)) − Hft (ftk (c)) ≤

K3 . k+1 i |Dft+h (ft+h (c))|

k+1 Finally, by Eq. (16) note that the combinatorics up to i iterations of ft+h (c) by k+1 the map ft+h is the same as the combinatorics up to i iterations of ft (c) by the map ft . By Remark 6.1 we obtain

(88)

Eqs. (88) and (87) give us Eq. (83). Since  1 Hft+h (ftk (c)) − Hft (ftk (c)) = [ft+h (ftk (c)), ft (ftk (c))], supp h

by Eq. (85) we conclude that   1 i+1 k i Zi,k = supp Lit+h Hft+h (ftk (c)) − Hft (ftk (c)) = [ft+h (ft (c)), ft+h (ftk+1 (c))]. h

Define ∆t,h (x) =

Remark 8.2. To avoid a cumbersome notation, in the Proof of Proposition 4.3 we will use the following notation. Whenever we take the supremum over all t ∈ [0, 1] we actually take the supremum over all t ∈ [0, 1] such that ft do not have a periodic critical point. And whenever we take the supremum over all h 6= 0 we indeed mean taking the supremum over all h 6= 0 such that 0 < |h| < δ, where δ > 0 is given by Definition 3.3. Proof of Proposition 4.3. We first examine 1 (Lt+h ρt − Lt ρt ). h As we have seen, the density ρt can be decomposed as ρt = (ρt )abs + (ρt )sal . We also have Lt+h ρt ∈ BV and

Lt+h ρt = (Lt+h ρt )abs + (Lt+h ρt )sal .

Therefore, (Lt+h ρt − Lt ρt ) = ((Lt+h ρt )abs − (Lt ρt )abs ) + ((Lt+h ρt )sal − (Lt ρt )sal ) .

Let us examine the absolutely continuous term 1 ((Lt+h ρt )abs − (Lt ρt )abs ). h Observe that for every t

(Lt ρt )(x) = (Lt ρt )abs (x) + (Lt ρt )sal (x). Differentiating with respect to x, ((Lt ρt )abs )′ (x) = (Lt ρt )′ (x) = ((Lt ρt )′ )abs (x) + ((Lt ρt )′ )sal (x). Then Z

0 and K1 > 0 such that for every t ∈ Ω ˆ we have there exist Ω Rφ (t + h) − Rφ (t) p 1Ω (t + h) ≤ K1 . h − log |h| Since ft is a good transversal family, by Lemma 3.7 we have that inf t |Ψ(t)| > 0 and that Ψ(t) does not changes signs on t ∈ [a, b], so without loss of generality we can assume Ψ(t) > 0 for every t ∈ [a, b] and inf t Ψ(t) > 0 (otherwise replace the family ft by f−t ). So there exists K2 > 0 such that lim sup h→0+

lim sup h→0+

Rφ (t + h) − Rφ (t) p 1Ω (t + h) ≤ K2 Ψ(t)h − log |h|

ˆ Then there exists h0 > 0 and a set S ⊂ Ω ˆ with m(S) > 0 such for every t ∈ Ω. that for every t ∈ S we have Rφ (t + h) − Rφ (t) p 1Ω (t + h) ≤ K2 + 1 Ψ(t)h − log |h|

for every h satisfying 0 < h ≤ h0 . Let t0 ∈ (a, b) be a Lebesgue density point of S. Choose δ > 0 such that DN (K2 + 1) + δ < 1.

Then for every ǫ > 0 small enough,

m(S ∩ Iǫ ) > DN (K2 + 1) + δ, m(Iǫ ) where Iǫ = [t0 − ǫ, t0 + ǫ]. Let Sǫ = S ∩ Iǫ . It is a well-known fact that if Sǫ − h = {t − h : t ∈ Sǫ } then lim m(Sǫ ∩ (Sǫ − h)) = m(Sǫ ) > 0.

h→0

Note that for every t ∈ Sǫ ∩ (Sǫ − h), we have t, t + h ∈ Sǫ ⊂ S ⊂ Ω, then Rφ (t + h) − Rφ (t) p ≤ K2 + 1 Ψ(t)h − log |h|

for every 0 < h ≤ h0 . In particular

m(Sǫ ) ≥ DN (K2 + 1) + δ. m(Iǫ )

On the other hand the restriction of ft to the interval Iǫ is a transversal family, then by Theorem 1.1 we obtain ! 1 1 Rφ (t + h) − Rφ (t) p m t ∈ Iǫ : ≤ K2 + 1 lim h→0+ m(Iǫ ) h Ψ(t)h − log |h| = DN (K2 + 1),

which contradicts Eq.(111).



Proof of Corollary 1.2. It follows from Corollary 9.1.



Remark 9.2. In Baladi and Smania [2][5] it is proven that for almost every t ∈ [a, b] there exists a sequence hn → 0 such that

Rφ (t + hn ) − Rφ (t) hn is not bounded. In particular Rφ is not a lipschitzian function on the whole interval [a, b]. Naturally Corollaries 9.1 and 1.2 do not follow from this when Ω is not an interval. Remark 9.3. Two weeks before this work be completed, Fabián Contreras sent us his Ph. D. Thesis [7] where he proves a result sharper than Corollary 9.1 when Ω = [a, b] and φ is a C 1 generic observable. He proves that for almost every t ∈ [a, b] the limit Rφ (t + h) − Rφ (t) (112) lim p h→0+ h | log h log log | log h||

exists and it is non zero. Note again that Corollaries 9.1 and 1.2 do not seem to follow from his result when Ω is not an interval. As in our case, the main difficult is to reduce the problem to Schnellmann’s main result in [19]. We are not completely familiar with his methods, but they seems to be quite different from our approach.
