Abstract

Consider a system (X,F,μ,T)(X, \mathcal{F}, \mu, T), bounded functions f1,f2L(μ)f_1, f_2 \in L^\infty(\mu) and a,b\ZZ.a,b \in \ZZ. We show that there exists a set of full measure Xf1,f2X_{f_1, f_2} in XX such that for all xXf1,f2x \in X_{f_1, f_2} and for every nilsequence bnb_n , the averages 1Nn=1Nf1(Tanx)f2(Tbnx)bn \frac{1}{N} \sum_{n=1}^N f_1(T^{an}x)f_2(T^{bn}x)b_n converge. We will show that this can be deduced from the classical Wiener-Wintner theorem for the double recurrence theorem. Together with the past work on this subject, we will show that several statements regarding the extension of the double recurrence theorem are equivalent.
