Abstract

For a map $T:[0,1]\rightarrow [0,1]$ with an invariant measure $\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}$, we study, for a $\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}$-typical $x$, the set of points $y$ such that the inequality $|T^{n}x-y|<r_{n}$ is satisfied for infinitely many $n$. We give a formula for the Hausdorff dimension of this set, under the assumption that $T$ is piecewise expanding and $\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D719}}$ is a Gibbs measure. In some cases we also show that the set has a large intersection property.
