Abstract
We analyze certain parametrized families of one-dimensional maps with infinitely many critical points from the measure-theoretical point of view. We prove that such families have absolutely continuous invariant probability measures for a positive Lebesgue measure subset of parameters. Moreover, we show that both the density of such a measure and its entropy vary continuously with the parameter. In addition, we obtain exponential rate of mixing for these measures and also show that they satisfy the Central Limit Theorem.
