A recent result of Bocker–Viana asserts that the Lyapunov exponents of compactly supported probability distributions in GL(2, R) depend continuously on the distribution. We investigate the general, possibly concompact ...

We show that the top Lyapunov exponent LE(p) associated with a random product of quasi-periodic cocycles depends real analytically on the transition probabilities p whenever LE(p) is simple. Moreover if the spectrum at ...
