In this paper, we develop a novel framework for quantitative mean ergodic theorems in the noncommutative setting, with a focus on actions of amenable groups and semigroups. We prove square function inequalities for ergodic averages arising…

In the framework of statistical mechanics the properties of macroscopic systems are deduced starting from the laws of their microscopic dynamics. One of the key assumptions in this procedure is the ergodic property, namely the equivalence…

Let B be a p-uniformly convex Banach space, with p >= 2. Let T be a linear operator on B, and let A_n x denote the ergodic average (1 / n) sum_{i< n} T^n x. We prove the following variational inequality in the case where T is power bounded…

For $c\in(1,2)$ we consider the following operators \[ \mathcal{C}_{c}f(x) = \sup_{\lambda \in [-1/2,1/2)}\bigg| \sum_{n \neq 0}f(x-n) \frac{e^{2\pi i\lambda \lfloor |n|^{c} \rfloor}}{n}\bigg|\text{,}\quad \mathcal{C}^{\mathsf{sgn}}_{c}f(x)…

Let $T$ be a power bounded Hilbert space operator without unimodular eigenvalues. We show that the subsequential ergodic averages $N^{-1}\sum_{n=1}^N T^{a_n}$ converge in the strong operator topology for a wide range of sequences $(a_n)$,…

For a Dunford-Schwartz operator in a fully symmetric space of measurable functions of an arbitrary measure space, we prove pointwise convergence of the conventional and weighted ergodic averages.

We study Tao's finitary viewpoint of convergence in metric spaces, as captured by the notion of metastability. We adopt the perspective of continuous model theory. We show that, in essence, metastable convergence with a given rate is the…

We prove sharp stability estimates for the Truncated Laplace Transform and Truncated Fourier Transform. The argument combines an approach recently introduced by Alaifari, Pierce and the second author for the truncated Hilbert transform with…

We show the failure of the pointwise convergence of averages along the Omega function in a number field. As a consequence, we show, for instance, that the averages \[ \frac{1}{N^2}\sum_{1\leq m,n \leq N} f(T^{\Omega(m^2+n^2)}x)\] do not…

It is well-known that a strict analogue of the Birkhoff Ergodic Theorem in infinite ergodic theory is trivial; it states that for any infinite-measure-preserving ergodic system the Birkhoff average of every integrable function is almost…

We consider in this note Furstenberg transformations on Cartesian products of infinite-dimensional tori. Under some appropriate assumptions, we show that these transformations are uniquely ergodic with respect to the Haar measure and have…

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 ergodicity of a class of infinite measure preserving systems, called skew-products. More precisely, we consider systems of the form \[ {T_f}:{[0, 1) \times \mathbb{R}}\to{[0, 1) \times \mathbb{R}},\quad {T_f(x, t)}:={(T(x),…

We extend the theory of ergodic optimization and maximizing measures to the non-commutative field of C*-dynamical systems. We then provide a result linking the ergodic optimizations of elements of a C*-dynamical system to the convergence of…

The Birkhoff Ergodic Theorem concludes that time averages, that is, Birkhoff averages, $\Sigma_{n=1}^N f(x_n)/N$ of a function $f$ along an ergodic trajectory $(x_n)$ of a function $T$ converges to the space average $\int f d\mu$, where…

We prove an inverse of Furstenberg's correspondence principle stating that for all measure preserving systems $(X,\mu,T)$ and $A\subset X$ measurable there exists a set $E \subset \mathbb{N}$ such that \[ \mu\left( \bigcap_{i=1}^k…

We construct examples of minimal and uniquely ergodic systems realizing all possible behaviors in the interplay of measurable and topological nilfactors. To build such examples, we adapt an idea that stems from Furstenberg's construction of…

It is known that, for a positive Dunford-Schwartz operator in a noncommutative $L^p-$space, $1\leq p<\infty$ or, more generally, in a noncommutative Orlicz space with order continuous norm, the corresponding ergodic averages converge…

We prove that for a minimal rotation T on a 2-step nilmanifold and any measure mu, the push-forward T^n(mu) of mu under T^n tends toward Haar measure if and only if mu projects to Haar measure on the maximal torus factor. For an arbitrary…

We study the convergence of the so-called entangled ergodic averages $\frac{1}{N^k}\sum_{n_1,...,n_k=1}^{N}T_m^{n_{\alpha(m)}}A_{m-1}T_{m-1}^{n_{\alpha(m-1)}}A_{m-2}...A_1T_1^{n_{\alpha(1)}},$ where $k\leq m$ and…
