On the dimension of invariant measures of endomorphisms of CP^k

Publication date 14 February 2011

Abstract: Let

f

be an endomorphism of

m a t h b b {C P}^{k}

and

u

be an

f

-invariant measure with positive Lyapunov exponents

(l a m b d a_{1}, ..., l a m b d a_{k})

. We prove a lower bound for the pointwise dimension of

u

in terms of the degree of

f

, the exponents of

u

and the entropy of

u

. In particular our result can be applied for the maximal entropy measure

m u

. When

k = 2

, it implies that the Hausdorff dimension of

m u

is estimated by

d i m_{c a l H} m u g e q l o g d o v e r l a m b d a_{1} + l o g d o v e r l a m b d a_{2}

, which is half of the conjectured formula. Our method for proving these results consists in studying the distribution of the

u

-generic inverse branches of

f^{n}

in

m a t h b b {C P}^{k}

. Our tools are a volume growth estimate for the bounded holomorphic polydiscs in

m a t h b b {C P}^{k}

and a normalization theorem for the

u

-generic inverse branches of

f^{n}

.
