Note on limit distribution of normalized return times and escape rate

Abstract

In this note we discuss limit distribution of normalized return times for shrinking targets and draw a necessary and sufficient condition using sweep-out sequence in order for the limit distribution to be exponential with parameter $1$. The normalizing coefficients are the same as sizes of the targets. Moreover we study escape rate, namely the exponential decay rate of sweep-out sequence and prove that in $\psi$-mixing systems for a certain class of sets the escape rate is in limit proportional to the size of the set.
