Mixed Random-Quasiperiodic Cocycles.

We introduce the concept of mixed random-quasiperiodic linear cocycles. We characterize the ergodicity of the base dynamics and establish a large deviations type estimate for certain types of observables. For the fiber dynamics we prove the uniform upper semicontinuity of the maximal Lyapunov exponent. This paper is meant to introduce a model to be studied in depth in further projects.
