Upper semi-continuity of metric entropy for $\mathcal{C}^{1,α}$ diffeomorphisms

Abstract: We prove that for $\mathcal{C}^{1,\alpha}$ diffeomorphisms on a compact manifold $M$ with ${\rm dim} M\leq 3$, if an invariant measure $\mu$ is a continuity point of the sum of positive Lyapunov exponents, then $\mu$ is an upper semi-continuity point of the entropy map. This gives several consequences, such as the upper-semi continuity of dimensions of measures for surface diffeomorphisms. Furthermore, we know the continuity of dimensions for measures of maximal entropy.
