Modified Schmidt games and non-dense forward orbits of partially hyperbolic systems (Q255935)

Let \(M\) be an \(n\)-dimensional smooth, connected and compact Riemannian manifold without boundary and let \(f:M \rightarrow M\) be a \(C^{1+\theta}\)-partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism. The author introduces a type of modified Schmidt games played on any unstable manifold. For a fixed point \(y\in M\), let \(E(f,y):=\{z\in M:y\notin \overline{\{f^{k}(z),k\in \mathbb{N}\}}\}\) be the set of points with non-dense forward orbit and \(E_{x}(f,y):=E(f,y)\cap W^{u}(x)\) for any point \(x\in M\). He proves that \(E_{x}(f,y)\) is a winning set for modified Schmidt game played on \(W^{u}(x)\). As a consequence, the set \(E_{x}(f,y)\) has Hausdorff dimension equal to \(\dim W^{u}(x)\). The second main result of this paper is: for any nonempty open subset \(V\) of \(M\), the full Hausdorff dimension of \(E(f,y)\cap V\) equal to \(\dim (M)\).
