We show that if $(X,\mathcal{X},\mu,S,T)$ is an ergodic measure preserving system with commuting transformations $S$ and $T$, then the average \[\frac{1}{N^3} \sum_{i,j,k=0}^{N-1} f_0(S^j T^k x) f_1 (S^{i+j} T^k x) f_2 (S^j T^{i+k} x)\]…
A celebrated result by Bourgain and Wierdl states that ergodic averages along primes converge almost everywhere for $L^p$-functions, $p>1$, with a polynomial version by Wierdl and Nair. Using an anti-correlation result for the von Mangoldt…
We answer a question posed by Vitaly Bergelson, showing that in a totally ergodic system, the average of a product of functions evaluated along polynomial times, with polynomials of pairwise differing degrees, converges in $L^{2}$ to the…
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…
In this paper, we prove a mean ergodic theorem for nonexpansive mappings in Hadamard (nonpositive curvature metric) spaces, which extends the Baillon nonlinear ergodic theorem. The main result shows that the sequence given by the Karcher…
We show the $L^2$-convergence of continuous time ergodic averages of a product of functions evaluated at return times along polynomials. These averages are the continuous time version of the averages appearing in Furstenberg's proof of…
We consider multilinear averages in ergodic theory and harmonic analysis and prove their divergence in some range of $L^p$ spaces, with $p$ close enough to 1. We also prove that the trilinear Hilbert transform is unbounded in a similar…
We introduce a family of maps generating continued fractions where the digit $1$ in the numerator is replaced cyclically by some given non-negative integers $(N_1,\ldots,N_m)$. We prove the convergence of the given algorithm, and study the…
We study binomially weighted summation methods given by \[ (x_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}} \mapsto \left(\sum_{k=0}^n\binom{n}{k}r^k(1-r)^{n-k}x_k\right)_{n\in \mathbb{N}} \] for $r\in (0,1)$, and their behavior under composition with summation…
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…
In this note we introduce a sequence of bilinear operators that unify ergodic averages and backward martingales in a nontrivial way. We establish its convergence in a range of $L^p$-norms and leave its a.s. convergence as an open problem.…
We investigate uniform ergodic type theorems for additive and subadditive functions on a subshift over a finite alphabet. We show that every strictly ergodic subshift admits a uniform ergodic theorem for Banach-space-valued additive…
In 2022, Bergelson and Richter gave a new dynamical generalization of the prime number theorem by establishing an ergodic theorem along the number of prime factors of integers. They also showed that this generalization holds as well if the…
We are interested in the set of normal sequences in the space $\{0,1\}^\mathbb{N}$ with a given frequency of the pattern $11$ in the positions $k, 2k$. The topological entropy of such sets is determined.
We show the pointwise convergence of the averages \[ \mathcal{A}_N f(x) = \frac{1}{\# \mathbf{B}_N} \sum_{n \in \mathbf{B}_N} f(x + n) \] for $f \in \ell^1(\mathbb{Z})$ where $\mathbf{B}_N = \mathbf{B} \cap [1, N]$, and $\mathbf{B}$ is a…
The theory of ergodic optimization for distance-expanding maps is extended to Gauss's continued fraction map. Since the set of invariant probability measures is not weak$^*$ closed, we establish a characterisation of the closure of this…
We prove a multidimensional ergodic theorem with weighted averages for the action of the group $\mathbb{Z}^d$ on a probability space. At level $n$ weights are of the form $n^{-d} \psi(j/n)$, $ j\in \mathbb{Z}^d$, for real functions $\psi$…
Von Neumann's original proof of the ergodic theorem is revisited. A uniform convergence rate is established under the assumption that one can control the density of the spectrum of the underlying self-adjoint operator when restricted to…
In infinite ergodic theory, two distributional limit theorems are well-known. One is characterized by the Mittag-Leffler distribution for time averages of $L^1(m)$ functions, i.e., integrable functions with respect to an infinite invariant…
We establish convergence in norm and pointwise almost everywhere for the non-conventional (in the sense of Furstenberg) bilinear polynomial ergodic averages \[ A_N(f,g)(x) := \frac{1}{N} \sum_{n =1}^N f(T^nx) g(T^{P(n)}x)\] as $N \to…
