This paper is devoted to study thermodynamic formalism for suspension flows
defined over countable alphabets. We are mostly interested in the regularity
properties of the pressure function. We establish conditions for the pressure
function to be real analytic or to exhibit a phase transition. We also
construct an example of a potential for which the pressure has countably many
phase transitions.
In this paper we investigate multifractal decompositions based on values of
Birkhoff averages of functions from a class of symbolically continuous
functions. This will be done for an expanding interval map with infinitely many
branches and is a generalisation of previous work for expanding maps with
finitely many branches. We show that there are substantial differences between
this case and the setting where the expanding map has only finitely many
branches.
Let $\nu_\lambda^p$ be the distribution of the random series
$\sum_{n=1}^\infty i_n \lambda^n$, where $i_n$ is a sequence of i.i.d. random
variables taking the values 0,1 with probabilities $p,1-p$. These measures are
the well-known (biased) Bernoulli convolutions.
In this paper we study the multifractal spectrum of $\nu_\lambda^p$ for
typical $\lambda$. Namely, we investigate the size of the sets
\[ \Delta_{\lambda,p}(\alpha) = \left\{x\in\R: \lim_{r\searrow 0} \frac{\log
\nu_\lambda^p(B(x,r))}{\log r} =\alpha\right\}. \]
In this paper we compute the multifractal analysis for local dimensions of
Bernoulli measures supported on the self-affine carpets introduced by
Bedford-McMullen. This extends the work of King where the multifractal analysis
is computed with strong additional separation assumptions.

We consider the local dimension spectrum of a weak Gibbs measure on a C^1
non-uniformly hyperbolic system of Manneville- Pomeau type. We present the
spectrum in three ways: using invariant measures, uniformly hyperbolic ergodic
measures and equilibrium states. We are also proving analyticity of the
spectrum under additional assumptions. All three presentations are well known
for smooth uniformly hyperbolic systems.
