The paper under review studies the thermodynamical formalism on the so called self-affine symbolic spaces and gives applications on the multifractal analysis of non homogenous Birkhoff averages. Especially they can conduct the multifractal analysis on weighted Gibbs measures. This work is motivated from \textit{R. Kenyon} and \textit{Y. Peres} [Ergodic Theory Dyn. Syst. 16, No. 2, 307--323 (1996; Zbl 0851.58028)] who defined the so-called weighted entropy and proved a variational principle for the Hausdorff dimension of ergodic measures. In the article under review, the authors go one step further. At first they define the so-called weighted topological pressure for potential, then under some reasonable conditions they can show that the potential has a unique weighted equilibrium state and it is quasi-Bernoulli. With this dynamical tool, they work out the multifractal analysis of non homogenous Birkhoff averages. This work establishes a connection between the dimension theory on certain self affine sets and the theory of dynamical system, and improves the previous results concerning the multifractal analysis on Serpinski carpet. The work may have further applications.
