Nonlinear thermodynamic formalism for flows

Abstract

ABSTRACT We introduce a version of the nonlinear thermodynamic formalism for flows. Moreover, we discuss the existence, uniqueness, and characterization of equilibrium measures for almost additive families of continuous functions with tempered variation. We also consider with some care the special case of additive families for which it is possible to strengthen some of the results. The proofs are mainly based on multifractal analysis.
