Generalized fractal dimensions of invariant measures of full-shift systems over compact and perfect spaces: generic behavior

Abstract

Abstract In this paper, we show that, for topological dynamical systems with a dense set (in the weak topology) of periodic measures, a typical (in Baire’s sense) invariant measure has, for each q > 0 {q>0} , zero lower q-generalized fractal dimension. This implies, in particular, that a typical invariant measure has zero upper Hausdorff dimension and zero lower rate of recurrence. Of special interest is the full-shift system ( X , T ) {(X,T)} (where X = M ℤ {X=M^{\mathbb{Z}}} is endowed with a sub-exponential metric and the alphabet M is a compact and perfect metric space), for which we show that a typical invariant measure has, for each q > 1 {q>1} , infinite upper q-correlation dimension. Under the same conditions, we show that a typical invariant measure has, for each s ∈ ( 0 , 1 ) {s\in(0,1)} and each q > 1 {q>1} , zero lower s-generalized and infinite upper q-generalized dimensions.
