Let $f:M\rightarrow M$ be a
$C^{1}$ self-map of a smooth Riemannian manifold
$M$ and
$\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}$ be an
$f$-invariant ergodic Borel probability measure with a compact support
$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6EC}$. We prove that if
$f$ is Hölder mild on the intersection of the singularity set and
$\unicode[STIX]{x1D6EC}$, then the pointwise dimension of
$\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}$ can be controlled by the Lyapunov exponents of
$\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}$ with respect to
$f$ and the entropy of
$f$. Moreover, we establish the distinction of the Hausdorff dimension of the critical points sets of maps between the
$C^{1,\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}}$ continuity and Hölder mildness conditions. Consequently, this shows that the Hölder mildness condition is much weaker than the
$C^{1,\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}}$ continuity condition. As applications of our result, if we study the recurrence rate of
$f$ instead of the pointwise dimension of
$\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}$, then we deduce that the analogous relation exists between recurrence rate, entropy and Lyapunov exponents.
