    This paper introduces a theory of Thermodynamic Formalism for Iterated Function Systems with Measures (IFSm). We study the spectral properties of the Transfer and Markov operators associated to a IFSm. We introduce variational formulations for the topological entropy of holonomic measures and the topological pressure of IFSm given by a potential. A definition of equilibrium state is then natural and we prove its existence for any continuous potential. We show, in this setting, a uniqueness result for the equilibrium state requiring only the G\^ateaux differentiability of the pressure functional.Comment: 25 pages, 1 figure. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1707.0189
