Abstract
Abstract Several authors have shown that Kusuoka’s measure κ on fractals is a scalar Gibbs measure; in particular, it maximizes a pressure. There is also a different approach, in which one defines a matrix-valued Gibbs measure µ, which induces both Kusuoka’s measure κ and Kusuoka’s bilinear form. In the first part of the paper, we show that one can define a ‘pressure’ for matrix-valued measures; this pressure is maximized by µ. In the second part, we use the matrix-valued Gibbs measure µ to count periodic orbits on fractals, weighted by their Lyapounov exponents.
期刊介绍:
The Edinburgh Mathematical Society was founded in 1883 and over the years, has evolved into the principal society for the promotion of mathematics research in Scotland. The Society has published its Proceedings since 1884. This journal contains research papers on topics in a broad range of pure and applied mathematics, together with a number of topical book reviews.
