Packing Entropy of Saturated Sets for Nonuniformly Hyperbolic Systems

Abstract

In this paper, we prove that for a nonuniformly hyperbolic system [Formula: see text], and for every convex and compact subset [Formula: see text] with the same hyperbolic rate, the packing entropy of saturated set [Formula: see text] equals the supremum of the metric entropy of all measures in K. Here [Formula: see text] denotes the set of all [Formula: see text]-invariant Borel probability measures supported on [Formula: see text]. As an application, we describe the size of the set of mean Li–Yorke pairs.
