Rotation and entropy

For a given map $f: X \to X$ and an observable $\varphi : X \to \mathbb{R} ^{d},$ rotation vectors are the limits of ergodic averages of $\varphi .$ We study which part of the topological entropy of $f$ is associated to a given rotation vector and which part is associated with many rotation vectors. According to this distinction, we introduce directional and lost entropies. We discuss their properties in the general case and analyze them more closely for subshifts of finite type and circle maps.
