Pointwise convergence of ergodic averages of bounded measurable functions for amenable groups
Abstract
Given any amenable group (with a left Haar measure or ), we can select out a \textit{F{\o}lner subnet} from any left F{\o}lner net in , which is \textit{-admissible}, namely, for any Borel -space and any , \begin{gather*} \lim_{\theta\in\Theta}\frac{1}{|F_\theta|}\int_{F_\theta}\varphi(gx)dg=\varphi^*(x)\ \forall x\in X\quad {\textrm{and}}\quad \varphi^*=(g\varphi)^*\ \forall g\in G. \end{gather*} Moreover, if is -compact such as a locally compact second countable Hausdorff amenable group, then , \textit{a.e.}, and is \textit{a.e.} independent of the choice of the admissible F{\o}lner net in . Consequently, we may easily obtain the ergodic disintegration of invariant probability measures for any -compact amenable group acting Borel on a compact metric space by continuous transformations of , and the existence of -finite invariant Radon measures for any Borel action of an amenable group on a locally compact, -compact, metric space by continuous maps of , and a -pointwise multiple ergodic theorem.
