In this dissertation, we will study two forms of non-uniform hyperbolicity: semi-
hyperbolic rational functions and those that satisfy the Collet-Eckmann topological con-
dition. The goal is to present a characterization of these types of hyperbolicity in relation to the measure of maximal entropy. This work will include an analysis of the concept of hyperbolicity and its connection with semi-hyperbolicity and the TCE (Collet-Eckmann) condition. All the work is based on an article written by Rivera-Letelier [The maximal entropy measure detects non-uniform hyperbolicity. Mathematical research letters, 2010].
