Generalized local entropy estimate for r^r maps

Let r>1r>1, let MM be a compact manifold of dimension dd, and let T:MMT:M\to M be a r^r map. For nonintegral rr, assume TCrT\in \mathcal{C}^{\lfloor r\rfloor} and DrTD^{\lfloor r\rfloor}T is (rr)(r-\lfloor r\rfloor)-Hölder. Let μ\mu be an invariant measure and fix γ>0\gamma>0. For an ergodic measure ν\nu, write Σ+χ(ν)\Sigma^+\chi(\nu) for the sum of its positive Lyapunov exponents, and let Σ+χ(μ)\overline{\Sigma^+\chi}(\mu) denote the corresponding upper-semicontinuous quantity used in the source. Generalized local entropy conjecture. There exist δμ>0\delta_{\mu}>0 and ϵμ>0\epsilon_{\mu}>0 such that, for every ergodic measure ν\nu satisfying dist(ν,μ)<δμ\operatorname{dist}(\nu,\mu)<\delta_{\mu},

hNew(Mν,ϵμ)Σ+χ(μ)Σ+χ(ν)r1+γ.h^{New}(M\mid\nu,\epsilon_{\mu})\leq \frac{\overline{\Sigma^+\chi}(\mu)-\Sigma^+\chi(\nu)}{r-1}+\gamma.

This would extend the preceding surface-diffeomorphism estimate to arbitrary dimensions, intermediate regularity, and noninvertible maps. The source presents it as a conjectural extension and gives no resolution status.
