Abstract:
In 1994, Ittai Kan provided the first example of maps with intermingled basins.
The Kan example corresponds to a partially hyperbolic endomorphism defined on a surface, with the boundary exhibiting two
intermingled hyperbolic physical measures. Both measures are supported on the boundary, and they also maximize
the topological entropy. In this talk, we give the existence of a third hyperbolic measure supported in the interior
of the cylinder that maximizes the entropy. I also will give this statement for a larger class of invariant measures
of large class maps including perturbations of the Kan example.
