On the support of measures of large entropy for automorphisms of Kähler manifolds

Abstract

Let $f$ be a holomorphic automorphism of a compact Kähler manifold $X$ with simple action on cohomology. We show that every ergodic measure with sufficiently large entropy is supported on the Julia set of $f$. In particular, when $X$ is a surface, any ergodic measure with positive entropy is supported on the Julia set. The proof relies on quantitative estimates for the speed of convergence towards the Green currents of $f$, with respect to a suitable norm on an adapted functional space of non-necessarily closed currents.
