Abstract

Given a one-parameter familyf λ(x) of maps of the interval [0, 1], we consider the set of parameter values λ for whichf λ has an invariant measure absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure. We show that this set has positive measure, for two classes of maps: i)f λ(x)=λf(x) where 0<λ≦4 andf(x) is a functionC 3-near the quadratic mapx(1−x), and ii)f λ(x)=λf(x) (mod 1) wheref isC 3,f(0)=f(1)=0 andf has a unique nondegenerate critical point in [0, 1].
