The Birkhoff Ergodic Theorem establishes pointwise convergence for integrable observables, but for $f\notin L^1$, no normalization yields almost sure convergence. This paper investigates trimmed ergodic sums, where the largest observations…
There are well-known examples of dynamical systems for which the Birkhoff averages with respect to a given observable along some or all of the orbits do not converge. It has been suggested that such orbits could be classified using higher…
We show that for every ergodic system $(X,\mu,T_1,\ldots,T_d)$ with commuting transformations, the average \[\frac{1}{N^{d+1}} \sum_{0\leq n_1,\ldots,n_d \leq N-1} \sum_{0\leq n\leq N-1} f_1(T_1^n \prod_{j=1}^d T_j^{n_j}x)f_2(T_2^n…
Inspired by Cohen and te Riele~\cite{Cohen1996}, who computationally verified that for every $n \leq 400$ there exists $k$ such that $\sigma^k(n) \equiv 0 \pmod{n}$ (where $\sigma^k$ denotes the $k$-fold iteration of the sum-of-divisors…
Let $T:X\to X$ be a compact linear (or more generally affine) operator from a Banach space into itself. For each $x\in X$, the sequence of iterates $T^nx, n=0,1,...$ and its averages $\frac{1}{k}\sum_{k=0}^nT^{k-1}x, n=0,1,...$ are either…

We consider sequences of linear operators $U_nf(x)$ with localization property. It is proved that for any set $E$ of measure zero there exists a set $G$ for which $U_n\ZI_G(x)$ diverges at each point $x\in E$. This result is a…
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.
We show that the absolutely normalized, symmetric Birkhoff sums of positive integrable functions in infinite, ergodic systems never converge pointwise even though they may be almost surely bounded away from zero and infinity.
We study inequalities of the form \begin{equation*} \rho ( \lvert \hat{f} \rvert) \leq C \sigma(f) < \infty, \end{equation*} with $f \in L_{1}(\mathbb{R}^n)$, the Lebesgue-integrable functions on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and \begin{equation*}…
For $R_{\alpha}$ being an irrational rotation of angle $\alpha$ on the one torus $\mathbb{T}$ and $\phi(x)=\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{1-x}$, we compare the behavior of the Birkhoff sum $S_N(\phi)=\sum_{k=0}^{N-1}(\phi\circ R_{\alpha}^k)(x)$ with…
Hopf's ratio ergodic theorem has an inherent symmetry which we exploit to provide a simplification of standard proofs of Hopf's and Birkhoff's ergodic theorems. We also present a ratio ergodic theorem for conservative transformations on a…
