Stably ergodic approximation: Two examples
Abstract
It has been conjectured that the stably ergodic diffeomorphisms are open and dense in the space of volume-preserving, partially hyperbolic diffeomorphisms of a compact manifold. In this paper we deal with two recalcitrant examples; the standard map cross Anosov and the ergodic automorphisms of the 4-torus. In both cases we show that they may be approximated by stably ergodic diffeomorphisms which have the stable accessibility property.
