Abstract: Given a continuous dynamical system f:XoX on a compact metric space X and an m-dimensional continuous potential Phi:XomathbbRm, the (generalized) rotation set mRot(Phi) is defined as the set of all mu-integrals of Phi, where mu runs over all invariant probability measures. Analogous to the classical topological entropy, one can associate the localized entropy mathcalH(w) to each winmRot(Phi). In this paper, we study the computability of rotation sets and localized entropy functions by deriving conditions that imply their computability. We then apply our results to study to the case of subshifts of finite type. We prove that mRot(Phi) is computable and that mathcalH(w) is computable in the interior of the rotation set. Finally, we construct an explicit example that shows that, in general, mathcalH is not continuous on the boundary of the rotation set, when considered as a function of Phi and w. This suggests that, in general, mathcalH is not computable at the boundary of rotation sets.
