摘要

We consider piecewise cone-hyperbolic systems satisfying a bunching condition, and we obtain a bound on the essential spectral radius of the associated weighted transfer operators acting on anisotropic Sobolev spaces. The bunching condition is always satisfied in dimension two, and our results give a unifying treatment of the work of Demers-Liverani [9] and our previous work [2]. When the complexity is subexponential, our bound implies a spectral gap for the transfer operator corresponding to the physical measures in many cases (for example if T preserves volume, or if the stable dimension is equal to 1 and the unstable dimension is not zero).
