Mixing rates for intermittent maps of high exponent (Q343800)

This paper is concerned with understanding the asymptotic behavior of the transfer operator associated to maps preserving an infinite measure. The author obtains a result on higher-order expansions for the coefficients of scalar renewal sequences using the main idea from one of her previous papers [Ergodic Theory Dyn. Syst. 35, No. 2, 585--614 (2015; Zbl 1316.37007)]. This result improves on the error terms previously found by the author [loc. cit.] and by \textit{I. Melbourne} and \textit{D. Terhesiu} [Invent. Math. 189, No. 1, 61--110 (2012; Zbl 1263.37011)]. The paper also studies the higher-order asymptotics for operator renewal sequences, continuing to develop the theory from Melbourne and Terhesiu [loc. cit.]. Some authors who obtained first-order asymptotics for the transfer operator include \textit{M. Thaler} [Stud. Math. 143, No. 2, 103--119 (2000; Zbl 0959.37008)] and \textit{S. Gouëzel} [Colloq. Math. 125, No. 2, 193--212 (2011; Zbl 1246.37017)]. Furthermore, the author applies her results to a specific family of Pomeau-Manneville maps introduced by \textit{C. Liverani} et al. [Ergodic Theory Dyn. Syst. 19, No. 3, 671--685 (1999; Zbl 0988.37035)].
