Abstract

We prove the stable ergodicity of an example of a volume-preserving, partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism introduced by Berger and Carrasco in [Berger and Carrasco. Non-uniformly hyperbolic diffeomorphisms derived from the standard map. Comm. Math. Phys.329 (2014), 239–262]. This example is robustly non-uniformly hyperbolic, with a two-dimensional center; almost every point has both positive and negative Lyapunov exponents along the center direction and does not admit a dominated splitting of the center direction. The main novelty of our proof is that we do not use accessibility.
