Abstract

In this paper we study two properties related to the structure of hyperbolic sets. First we construct new examples answering in the negative the following question posed by Katok and Hasselblatt in [[12], p. 272]Question. Let $\Lambda$ be a hyperbolic set, and let $V$ be an open neighborhood of $\Lambda$. Does there exist a locally maximal hyperbolic set $\widetilde{\Lambda}$ such that $\Lambda \subset \widetilde{\Lambda} \subset V $?We show that such examples are present in linear Anosov diffeomorophisms of $\mathbb{T}^3$, and are therefore robust.Also we construct new examples of sets that are not contained in any locally maximal hyperbolic set. The examples known until now were constructed by Crovisier in [7] and by Fisher in [9], and these were either in dimension equal or bigger than 4 or they were not transitive. We give a transitive and robust example in $\mathbb{T}^3$. And show that such examples cannot be build in dimension 2.
