TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the setting of a map making "nice" return to a reference set, and defined criteria for the existence of equilibria, speed of convergence to equilibrium, and central limit theorem in terms of the tail of the return time function.
Abstract: The setting of this paper consists of a map making “nice” returns to a reference set. Criteria for the existence of equilibria, speed of convergence to equilibria and for the central limit theorem are given in terms of the tail of the return time function. The abstract setting considered arises naturally in differentiable dynamical systems with some expanding or hyperbolic properties.

TL;DR: In this paper, the results from a comprehensive study of a new class of attractors, characterized by strong local instability, but not uniformly hyperbolic, are presented, and the results on their dynamical, geometric and statistical properties are presented.
Abstract: This work contains the results from a comprehensive study of a new class of attractors. The attractors in this class are characterized by strong local instability, but they are not uniformly hyperbolic. Rigorous results on their dynamical, geometric and statistical properties are presented.
