Neutralized Local Entropy and Dimension bounds for Invariant Measures
Snir Ben Ovadia, Federico Rodríguez-Hertz
Abstract
Abstract We introduce a notion of a point-wise entropy of measures (i.e., local entropy) called neutralized local entropy, and compare it with the Brin-Katok local entropy. We show that the neutralized local entropy coincides with Brin-Katok local entropy almost everywhere. Neutralized local entropy is computed by measuring open sets with a relatively simple geometric description. Our proof uses a measure density lemma for Bowen balls, and a version of a Besicovitch covering lemma for Bowen balls. As an application, we prove a lower point-wise dimension bound for invariant measures, complementing the previously established bounds for upper point-wise dimension.
