Abstract: We provide an example of a Schr"odinger cocycle over a mixing Markov shift for which the integrated density of states has a very weak modulus of continuity, close to the log-H"older lower bound established by W. Craig and B. Simon. This model is based upon a classical example due to Y. Kifer of a random Bernoulli cocycle with zero Lyapunov exponents which is not strongly irreducible. It follows that the Lyapunov exponent of a Bernoulli cocycle near this Kifer example cannot be H"older or weak-H"older continuous, thus providing a limitation on the modulus of continuity of the Lyapunov exponent of random cocycles.


The paper is devoted to the study of a linear Schrödinger cocycle over a mixing Markov shift, which is based on the classical example of \textit{Y. Kifer} [Z. Wahrscheinlichkeitstheor. Verw. Geb. 61, 83--95 (1982; Zbl 0479.60019)]. The authors show that the integrated density of states has a very weak modulus of continuity.
