Uniform quasi-multiplicativity of locally constant cocycles and applications
Reza Mohammadpour, Kiho Park
Abstract
In this paper, we show that a locally constant cocycle $\mathcal{A}$ is $k$-quasi multiplicative under the irreducibility assumption. More precisely, we show that if $\mathcal{A}^t$ and $\mathcal{A}^{\wedge m}$ are irreducible for every $t \mid d$ and $1\leq m \leq d-1$, then $\mathcal{A}$ is $k$-uniformly spannable for some $k\in \mathbb{N}$, which implies that $\mathcal{A}$ is $k$-quasi multiplicative. We apply our results to show that the unique subadditive equilibrium Gibbs state is $ψ$-mixing and calculate the Hausdorff dimension of cylindrical shrinking target and recurrence sets.
