We prove polynomial upper bounds for the deviation of ergodic averages for the straight line flow on every translation surface in almost every direction, in particular for those surfaces arising from rational polygonal billiards.
We study mean convergence of multiple ergodic averages, where the iterates arise from smooth functions of polynomial growth that belong to a Hardy field. Our results include all logarithmico-exponential functions of polynomial growth, such…
Given a convergence theorem in analysis, under very general conditions a model-theoretic compactness argument implies that there is a uniform bound on the rate of metastability. We illustrate with three examples from ergodic theory.
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 study the fluctuations of ergodic sums using global and local specifications on periodic points. We obtain Lindeberg-type central limit theorems in both situations. As an application, when the system possesses a unique measure of maximal…
Let $(X,\nu,T)$ be a measure-preserving system, and let $P_1,\ldots, P_k$ be polynomials with integer coefficients. We prove that, for any $f_1,\ldots, f_k\in L^{\infty}(X)$, the M\"obius-weighted polynomial multiple ergodic averages…
This brief pedagogical note re-proves a simple theorem on the convergence, in $L_2$ and in probability, of time averages of non-stationary time series to the mean of expectation values. The basic condition is that the sum of covariances…
We prove that for every $c\in(1,23/22)$, every probability space $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu)$ equipped with two commuting measure-preserving transformations $T,S\colon X\to X$ and every $f,g\in L^{\infty}_{\mu}(X)$ we have that the…
We apply the methods of ergodic theory to both simplify and significantly extend some classical results due to Stewart, Tijdeman, and Ruzsa. One of the notable features of our approach is the utilization of pointwise ergodic theory.

In this paper, we reduce pointwise convergence of polynomial ergodic averages of general measure-preserving system acted by $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ to the case of measure-preserving system acted by $\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ with zero entropy. As an…
We show that the moving arithmetic average is closely connected to a Gauss-Seidel type fixed point method studied by Bauschke, Wang and Wylie, and which was observed to converge only numerically. Our analysis establishes a rigorous proof of…
We study here weighted polynomial multiple ergodic averages. A sequence of weights is called universally good if any polynomial multiple ergodic average with this sequence of weights converges in $L^{2}$. We find a necessary condition and…
We study certain multiple ergodic averages of an iterated functions system generated by two contractions on the unit interval. By using the dynamical coding ${0,1}^{\mathbb{N}}$ of the attractor, we compute the Hausdorff dimension of the…
Examining multiple ergodic averages whose iterates are integer parts of real valued polynomials for totally ergodic systems, we provide various characterizations of total joint ergodicity, meaning that an average converges to the "expected"…
Shortly after Szemer\'edi's proof that a set of positive upper density contains arbitrarily long arithmetic progressions, Furstenberg gave a new proof of this theorem using ergodic theory. This gave rise to the field of ergodic Ramsey…
We extend results on quadratic pressure and convergence of Gibbs mesures from previous joined work of the authors to the Curie-Weiss-Potts model. We define the notion of equilibrium state for the quadratic pressure and show that under some…
We prove essentially optimal $L^p(\mathbb{R})$-estimates for variational variants of the maximal Fourier multiplier operators considered by Bourgain in his work on pointwise convergence of polynomial ergodic averages. As a corollary of our…
Walsh has recently proved the norm convergence of all nonconventional ergodic averages involving polynomial sequences in discrete nilpotent acting groups. He deduces this convergence from an equivalent, `finitary' assertion of stability…
Transmutation is a technique for extending classical probability distributions in order to give them more flexibility. In this paper, we are interested in cubic transmutations of the Pareto distribution. We establish a general formula that…
