Entropy equality and local symmetry in negative curvature
For every closed connected smooth Riemannian manifold of dimension at least three with strictly negative sectional curvature, we prove that normalized Liouville measure has maximal entropy for the unit-speed geodesic flow if and only if the metric is locally symmetric. This resolves Katok's entropy rigidity conjecture…
Full source abstract
For every closed connected smooth Riemannian manifold of dimension at least three with strictly negative sectional curvature, we prove that normalized Liouville measure has maximal entropy for the unit-speed geodesic flow if and only if the metric is locally symmetric. This resolves Katok's entropy rigidity conjecture positively in these dimensions, including all rank-one symmetric types at arbitrary scale.
