We develop a framework for the study of the limiting behavior of multiple ergodic averages with commuting transformations when all iterates are given by the same sparse sequence; this enables us to partially resolve several longstanding…

Fix $c\in (1,23/22)$. Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be two distinct non-zero real numbers with $|\alpha|\neq |\beta|$. It is shown that for any measure preserving system $(X,\mathcal{X},\mu,T)$ and any $f,g\in L^{\infty}(\mu)$, the limit…

We use techniques of proof mining to obtain a computable and uniform rate of metastability (in the sense of Tao) for the mean ergodic theorem for a finite number of commuting linear contractive operators on a uniformly convex Banach space.

Let $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu, T)$ be a measure preserving system. We prove the pointwise convergence of the averages $$\frac{1}{N^2}\sum_{n,m= 0}^{N-1} f_1(T^nx)f_2(T^mx)f_3(T^{n+m}x)$$ and of similar averages with seven bounded functions.

The dominated convergence theorem implies that if (f_n) is a sequence of functions on a probability space taking values in the interval [0,1], and (f_n) converges pointwise a.e., then the sequence of integrals converges to the integral of…

We provide a unified framework to proving pointwise convergence of sparse sequences, deterministic and random, at the $L^1(X)$ endpoint. Specifically, suppose that \[ a_n \in \{ \lfloor n^c \rfloor, \min\{ k : \sum_{j \leq k} X_j = n\} \}…

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…

In this paper, we extend the generalized Wiener-Wintner Theorem built by Host and Kra to the multilinear case under the hypothesis of pointwise convergence of multilinear ergodic averages. In particular, we have the following result: Let…

We establish multiple recurrence and convergence results for pairs of zero entropy measure preserving transformations that do not satisfy any commutativity assumptions. Our results cover the case where the iterates of the two…

A joint measure-preserving system is $(X, \mathcal{B}, \mu_{1}, \dots, \mu_{k}, T_{1}, \dots, T_{k})$, where each $(X, \mathcal{B}, \mu_{i}, T_{i})$ is a measure-preserving system and any $\mu_{i}$ and $\mu_{j}$ are mutually absolutely…

The Furstenberg recurrence theorem (or equivalently, Szemer\'edi's theorem) can be formulated in the language of von Neumann algebras as follows: given an integer $k \geq 2$, an abelian finite von Neumann algebra $(\M,\tau)$ with an…

We show that on a $\sigma$-finite measure preserving system $X = (X,\nu, T)$, the non-conventional ergodic averages $$ \mathbb{E}_{n \in [N]} \Lambda(n) f(T^n x) g(T^{P(n)} x)$$ converge pointwise almost everywhere for $f \in L^{p_1}(X)$,…

We prove convergence in norm and pointwise almost everywhere on $L^p$, $p\in (1,\infty)$, for certain multi-parameter polynomial ergodic averages by establishing the corresponding multi-parameter maximal and oscillation inequalities. Our…

Let $(X, \mathcal{A},\mu)$ be a probability space and let $T$ be a contraction on $L^2(\mu)$. We provide suitable conditions over sequences $(w_k)$, $(u_k)$ and $(A_k)$ in such a way that the weighted ergodic limit…

Let $a_n$ be the random increasing sequence of natural numbers which takes each value independently with probability $n^{-a}$, $0 < a < 1/2$, and let $p(n) = n^{1+\epsilon}$, $0 < \epsilon < 1$. We prove that, almost surely, for every…

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 study the pointwise convergence of some weighted averages linked to averages along cubes. We show that if $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu, T_i)$ are not necessarily commuting measure preserving systems on the same finite measure space and if $f_i,$…

We define a uniformly behaved in ${\mathbb N}$ arithmetic sequence ${\bf a}$ and an ${\bf a}$-mean Lyapunov stable dynamical system $f$. We consider the time-average of a continuous function $\phi$ along the ${\bf a}$-orbit of $f$ up to…

In this paper, we extend Bourgain's double recurrence result to the Wiener-Wintner averages. Let $(X, \mathcal{F}, \mu, T)$ be a standard ergodic system. We will show that for any $f_1, f_2 \in L^\infty(X)$, the double recurrence…

In a previous article, we extended the notion of ergodic optimization to the setting of C*-dynamical systems of countable discrete groups. Among the key results of that paper was that given an action $G \stackrel{\Xi}{\curvearrowright}…
