The variational principle states that the topological entropy of a compact dynamical system is a supremum of measure-theoretic entropies of invariant measures supported on this system. Therefore, one may ask whether we can get a similar formula for the topological entropy of a dynamical system restricted to the level sets, which are usually not compact. In several cases it was then possible to prove the so-called restricted variational principle formula: For every possible value $\alpha$ of the Lyapunov exponent, the topological entropy of the set of points with the Lyapunov exponent $\alpha$ is equal to the supremum of measure-theoretic entropies of invariant measures with Lyapunov exponent $\alpha$.

In this talk, I will investigate the structure of the level sets of all Lyapunov exponents for typical cocycles. I will show that the restricted variational principle formula for a vector of Lyapunov exponents holds for typical cocycles. This generalizes the works of Barreira-Gelfert and Feng-Huang.
