Asymptotic distribution of hitting times for critical maps of the circle

It is well known that the renormalization group transformation $\mathcal{R}$ has a unique fixed point $f_{cr}$ in the space of critical $C^{3}$-circle homeomorphisms with one cubic critical point $x_{cr}$ and the golden mean rotation number $\overline{\rho}:=\frac{\sqrt{5}-1}{2}.$ Denote by $Cr(\overline{\rho})$ the set of all critical circle maps $C^{1}$-conjugated to $f_{cr}.$ Let $f\in Cr(\overline{\rho})$ and let $\mu:=\mu_{f}$ be the unique probability invariant measure of $f.$ Fix $\theta \in(0,1).$ For each $n\geq1$ define $c_{n}:=c_{n}(\theta)$ such that $\mu([x_{cr},c_{n}])=\theta\cdot\mu([x_{cr},f^{q_{n}}(x_{cr})]),$ where $q_{n}$ is the first return time of the linear rotation $f_{\overline{\rho}}.$ We study convergence in law of rescaled point process of time hitting. We show that the limit distribution is singular w. r. t. the Lebesgue measure.
