Yakov Sinai contributed to the study of <Feigenbaum constants> through <thermodynamic formalism>, in joint work with <E. B. Vul> and <Konstantin Khanin>. Their 1984 paper connects universal period-doubling scaling with methods of <statistical mechanics>, illustrating how probabilistic and geometric descriptions of a <dynamical system> can reinforce each other.<Feigenbaum universality and the thermodynamic formalism by E. B. Vul and others>[Byline and article subject, Russian Mathematical Surveys 39(3), 1–40]{ref}
