We prove $q$-variation estimates, $q>2$, on $\ell^{p}$ spaces for averages along primes (with $1<p<\infty$) and polynomials (with $\big| \frac1p - \frac12 \big| < \frac{1}{2(d+1)}$, where $d$ is the degree of the polynomial). This improves…

Let $\{T_t\}_{t>0}$ be a strongly continuous semigroup of positive contractions on $L_p(X,\mu)$ with $1<p<\infty$. Let $E$ be a UMD Banach lattice of measurable functions on another measure space $(\Omega,\nu)$. For $f\in L_p(X; E)$ define…

For positive $q\neq1$, the $q$-exchangeability of an infinite random word is introduced as quasi-invariance under permutations of letters, with a special cocycle which accounts for inversions in the word. This framework allows us to extend…

Consider a measure-preserving transition kernel $T$ on an arbitrary probability space $(\mathbb X,\mathcal cA,\pi)$. In this level of generality, we prove that a one-step hyper-contractivity estimate of the form $\|T\|_{p\to q}\le 1$ with…

Examples are constructed of sparse subsequences of the integers for which the associated maximal averages operator is of weak type (1,1). A consequence, by transference, is that an almost everywhere L^1 -- type ergodic theorem holds for…

Any Calderon-Zygmund operator T is pointwise dominated by a convergent sum of positive dyadic operators. We give an elementary self-contained proof of this fact, which is simpler than the probabilistic arguments used for all previous…

We study the weak limit semigroup of an operator $T$, i.e., the set of all operators being weak limit points of the powers of $T$, in three different but related contexts: Koopman operators of measure-preserving transformations,…

Let $S$ be the multiplicative semigroup of $q\times q$ matrices with positive entries such that every row and every column contains a strictly positive element. Denote by $(X_n)_{n\geq1}$ a sequence of independent identically distributed…

We show that for every mean zero log-concave real random variable $X$ one has $\|X\|_p \leq \frac{p}{q} \|X\|_q$ for $p \geq q \geq 1$, going beyond the well-known case of symmetric random variables. We also prove that in the class of…

We study (weakly) continuous convolution semigroups of probability measures on a Lie group G or a homogeneous space G/K, where K is a compact subgroup. We show that such a convolution semigroup is the convolution product of its initial…

We introduce holomorphic algebras $H_q$ in the context of the q-Gaussian algebra $\Gamma_q$ of Bozejko, K\"ummerer, and Speicher, and give a q-Segal-Bargmann transform for them. We then prove a strong hypercontractivity theorem,…

Let G be a commutative algebraic group over Q. Let Gamma be a subgroup of G(Q) contained in the union of the compact subgroups of G(Q_p). We formulate a guess for the dimension of the closure of Gamma in G(Q_p), and show that its…

Let $K$ be an algebraic number field, and $\pi=\otimes\pi_{v}$ an irreducible, automorphic, cuspidal representation of $\GL_{m}(\mathbb{A}_{K})$ with analytic conductor $C(\pi)$. The theorem on analytic strong multiplicity one established…

Let $X=\{X_n: n\in\mathbb{N}\}$ be a long memory linear process in which the coefficients are regularly varying and innovations are independent and identically distributed and belong to the domain of attraction of an $\alpha$-stable law…

Let T_t = e^{-tA} be a bounded analytic semigroup on Lp, with 1<p<\infty. It is known that if A and its adjoint A^* both satisfy square function estimates \bignorm{\bigl(\int_{0}^{\infty}| A^{1/2} T_t(x)|^2\, dt\,\bigr)^{1/2}_{Lp} \lesssim…

Let $L$ be a positive self-adjoint operator on $L^2(X)$, where $X$ is a $\sigma$-finite metric measure space. When $\alpha \in (0,1)$, the subordinated semigroup $\{\exp(-tL^{\alpha}):t \in \mathbb{R}^+\}$ can be defined on $L^2(X)$ and…

Let $p/q$ ($p, q \in \mathbb{N}^*$) be a positive rational number such that $p > q^2$. We show that for any $\epsilon > 0$, there exists a set $A(\epsilon) \subset [0, 1[$, with finite border and with Lebesgue measure $< \epsilon$, for…

The average value of log s(n)/n taken over the first N even integers is shown to converge to a constant lambda when N tends to infinity; moreover, the value of this constant is approximated and proven to be less than 0. Here s(n) sums the…

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…

Given ergodic p-invariant measures {\mu_i} on the 1-torus T=R/Z, we give a sharp condition on their entropies, guaranteeing that the entropy of the convolution \muon converges to \log p. We also prove a variant of this result for joinings…
