Let $F_2$ denote the free group on two generators $a,b$. For any measure-preserving system $(X, {\mathcal X}, \mu, (T_g)_{g \in F_2})$ on a finite measure space $X = (X,{\mathcal X},\mu)$, any $f \in L^1(X)$, and any $n \geq 1$, define the…

We study the almost sure convergence of bilateral ergodic averages for not necessarily integrable functions and relate it to the ones of the forward and backward averages, hence complementing results of Wo\'s and the second named author. In…

Consider a system $(X, \mathcal{F}, \mu, T)$, bounded functions $f_1, f_2 \in L^\infty(\mu)$ and $a,b \in \ZZ.$ We show that there exists a set of full measure $X_{f_1, f_2}$ in $X$ such that for all $x \in X_{f_1, f_2}$ and for every…

Let $\Gamma$ be a countably infinite group. A common theme in ergodic theory is to start with a probability measure-preserving (p.m.p.) action $\Gamma \curvearrowright (X, \mu)$ and a map $f \in L^1(X, \mu)$, and to compare the global…

We examine multiple ergodic averages of commuting transformations with polynomial iterates in which the polynomials may be pairwise dependent. In particular, we show that such averages are controlled by the Gowers-Host-Kra seminorms…

Suppose that G is a compact Abelian topological group, m is the Haar measure on G and f is a measurable function. Given (n_k), a strictly monotone increasing sequence of integers we consider the nonconventional ergodic/Birkhoff averages…

A recent result of Frantzikinakis establishes sufficient conditions for joint ergodicity in the setting of $\mathbb{Z}$-actions. We generalize this result for actions of second-countable locally compact abelian groups. We obtain two…

We prove a quantitative result on norm convergence of cubic ergodic averages with respect to $d\geq 1$ commuting measure-preserving transformations. We use harmonic analysis techniques, a key tool being estimates for singular Brascamp-Lieb…

For a Dunford-Schwartz operator in the $L^p-$space, $1\leq p< \infty$ , of an arbitrary measure space, we prove pointwise convergence of the conventional and Besicovitch weighted ergodic averages. Pointwise convergence of various types of…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group and $\mu$ be a probability measure on $G$. We consider the convolution operator $\lambda_1(\mu)\colon L_1(G)\to L_1(G)$ given by $\lambda_1(\mu)f=\mu \ast f$ and its restriction $\lambda_1^0(\mu)$ to the…

The main goal of the paper is to prove convergence in norm and pointwise almost everywhere on $L^p$, $p\in (1,\infty)$, for certain multiparameter polynomial ergodic averages in the spirit of Dunford and Zygmund for continuous flows. We…

We show that for each Orlicz space properly contained in L^1 there is a sequence along which the ergodic averages converge for functions in the Orlicz space, but diverge for all f in L^1. This extends the work of K. Reinhold, who, building…

The Birkhoff Ergodic Theorem concludes that time averages, i.e., Birkhoff averages, $\Sigma_{n=0}^{N-1} f(x_n)/N$ of a function $f$ along a length $N$ ergodic trajectory $(x_n)$ of a function $T$ converge to the space average $\int f d\mu$,…

We prove a pointwise convergence result for additive ergodic averages associated with certain multiplicative actions of the Gaussian integers. We derive several applications in dynamics and number theory, including: (i) Wirsing's theorem…

In this paper, we investigate ergodic and fractal properties of the sets $$\Lambda_y:=\Big\{n\in\mathbb{N}:\ \{u_ny\}\in I_n\Big\},$$ where $\{\cdot\}$ denotes the fractional part function, $(u_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ is an increasing sequence…

We consider ergodic $\mathrm{Sym}(\mathbb{N})$-invariant probability measures on the space of $L$-structures with domain $\mathbb{N}$ (for $L$ a countable relational language), and call such a measure a properly ergodic structure when no…

We prove that for any bounded functions $f_1, f_2$ on a measure-preserving dynamical system $(X,T)$ and any distinct integers $a_1, a_2$, for almost every $x$ the sequence $$ f_1(T^{a_1 n}x) f_2(T^{a_2 n}x) $$ is a good weight for the…

Let $\textrm{Mat}_2(\mathbb{R})$ be the set of $2 \times 2$ matrices with real entries. For any $\varepsilon>0$ and any finitely--supported probability measure $\mu$ on $\textrm{Mat}_2(\mathbb{R})$, we prove that either \[ T(\mu) = \sum_{X,…

A collection of integer sequences is jointly ergodic if for every ergodic measure preserving system the multiple ergodic averages, with iterates given by this collection of sequences, converge in the mean to the product of the integrals. We…

In this paper, we provide a counterexample to show that in sharp contrast to the classical case, the almost uniform convergence may not happen for truly noncommutative $L_p$-martingales when $1\leq p<2$. The same happens to ergodic…
