Central limit theorem for generalized Weierstrass functions

Abstract

Let $f$ be a $C^{2+\epsilon}$ expanding map of the circle and $v$ be a $C^{1+\epsilon}$ real function of the circle. Consider the twisted cohomological equation $v(x) = \alpha (f(x)) - Df(x) \alpha (x)$ which has a unique bounded solution $\alpha$. We prove that $\alpha$ is either $C^{1+\epsilon}$ or nowhere differentiable, and if $\alpha$ is nowhere differentiable then the Newton quotients of $\alpha$, after an appropriated normalization, converges in distribution to the normal distribution, with respect to the unique absolutely continuous invariant probability of $f$.
