Abstract

Consider the class of Cr-smooth SL(2,ℝ) valued cocycles, based on the rotation flow on the two torus with irrational rotation number α. We show that in this class, (i) cocycles with positive Lyapunov exponents are dense and (ii) cocycles that are either uniformly hyperbolic or proximal are generic, if α satisfies the following Liouville type condition, where C > 0 and 0< κ< are some constants and Pn/qn is some sequence of irreducible fractions.
