Abstract: Let f be an endomorphism of mathbbCPk and u be an f-invariant measure with positive Lyapunov exponents (lambda1,...,lambdak). 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 mu. When k=2, it implies that the Hausdorff dimension of mu is estimated by dimcalHmugeqlogdoverlambda1+logdoverlambda2, 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 fn in mathbbCPk. Our tools are a volume growth estimate for the bounded holomorphic polydiscs in mathbbCPk and a normalization theorem for the u-generic inverse branches of fn.


Let~\(f\) be a holomorphic endomorphism of \(\mathbb{CP}^k\) with degree~\(d\geq2\), and let~\(\nu\) be an ergodic invariant measure for~\(f\) with positive Lyapunov exponents \(\lambda_1\geq\ldots\geq\lambda_k\). The paper establishes a lower bound for the pointwise dimension of~\(\nu\) in terms of the Lyapunov exponents, the degree~\(d\) and the entropy of~\(\nu\). An application to the equilibrium measure of~\(f\) for the case \(k=2\) yields \(\frac{\log d}{\lambda_1}+\frac{\log d}{\lambda_2}\) as a lower bound for its Hausdorff dimension, establishing one side of a conjectured equality.
