Abstract

In this paper, we give an alternative proof of the classical Ruelle-Perron-Frobenius theorem in the general setup of subshifts of finite type using Birkhoff cones and Hilbert metrics. This approach yields an explicit estimate of the spectral gap of transfer operators and can be applied to compute estimates of the rate of decay of correlations and the analytic continuation of zeta functions.
