arXiv:2604.27412v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Choosing the optimal observable to model dynamical systems for which we do not know the driving equations is nearly always an ad hoc art. Takens' Delay Embedding Theorem guarantees a diffeomorphism between delay-coordinate vectors built from generic scalar observables and the underlying invariant attractor, but is agnostic to optimal observable choice, and formal bounds on reconstruction quality across observables are not known. Here we prove that, under modest technical conditions, the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy of an observable predicts its reconstruction error of the underlying dynamics in chaotic, ergodic systems. Using the Oseledets Multiplicative Ergodic Theorem, we show that the tangent bundles of reconstructed manifolds admit an invariant Oseledets filtration diffeomorphically related across admissible observables, with Lyapunov exponents controlling the propagation of perturbations. We bound reconstruction error by a quantity

arXiv:2604.25881v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Finite horizon Sinai billiard maps are examples of uniformly hyperbolic systems with singularities. These discontinuities make it more difficult to develop the classical theory of thermodynamic formalism. Nevertheless, Baladi and Demers established a variational principle for these systems, and proved that if the billiard table satisfies a certain sparse recurrence condition, then there is a unique measure of maximal entropy. We extend this existence and uniqueness result to all finite horizon Sinai billiard maps by giving a new proof that does not rely on the sparse recurrence condition. Our construction is very concrete: the unique MME is obtained as the product of the Hausdorff measures on the one-sided subshifts associated to the billiard map.
