We show that $ { \omega }(n)$ and $ { \Omega }(n)$, the number of distinct prime factors of $n$ and the number of distinct prime factors of $n$ counted according to multiplicity are good weighting functions for the pointwise ergodic theorem…

In the present paper we consider a von Neumann algebra M with a faithful normal semi-finite trace $\t$, and $\{\alpha_ t\} $ a strongly continuous extension to $L^p(M,\t)$ of a semigroup of absolute contractions on $L^1 (M,\tau)$. By means…

We study a nonconventional ergodic average for asymptotically abelian weakly mixing C*-dynamical systems, related to a second iteration of Khintchine's recurrence theorem obtained by Bergelson in the measure theoretic case. A noncommutative…

We present a simple way to produce good weights for several types of ergodic theorem including the Wiener-Wintner type multiple return time theorem and the multiple polynomial ergodic theorem. These weights are deterministic and come from…

We consider random fields indexed by finite subsets of an amenable discrete group, taking values in the Banach-space of bounded right-continuous functions. The field is assumed to be equivariant, local, coordinate-wise monotone, and almost…

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…

The culmination of the papers (arXiv:0905.0518, arXiv:0910.0909) was a proof of the norm convergence in $L^2(\mu)$ of the quadratic nonconventional ergodic averages \frac{1}{N}\sum_{n=1}^N(f_1\circ T_1^{n^2})(f_2\circ…

Recently, Donoso, Le, Moreira and Sun studied the asymptotic behavior of the averages of completely multiplicative functions over the Gaussian integers. They derived Wirsing's theorem for Gaussian integers, answered a question of…

We study mean ergodicity in amenable operator semigroups and establish the connection to the convergence of strong and weak ergodic nets. We then use these results in order to show the convergence of uniform families of ergodic nets that…

Let $G$ be a connected simple Lie group of real rank one and finite center, and let $K$ be a maximal compact subgroup. We study the families of spherical, ball, and uniform averages $(\sigma_t)_{t>0}$, $(\beta_t)_{t>0}$, and $(\mu_t)_{t>0}$…

A topological dynamical system $(X,T)$ is called CF-Nil($k$) if it is strictly ergodic and the maximal measurable and maximal topological $k$-step pro-nilfactors coincide as measure preserving systems. Through constructing specific…

We generalize Berg's notion of quasi-disjointness to actions of countable groups and prove that every measurably distal system is quasi-disjoint from every measure preserving system. As a corollary we obtain easy to check necessary and…

Huang, Shao and Ye recently studied pointwise multiple averages by using suitable topological models. Using a notion of dynamical cubes introduced by the authors, the Huang-Shao-Ye technique and the Host machinery of magic systems, we prove…

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…

In the first part of the paper the natural scheme for proving noncommutative individual ergodic theorems for multiple sequences is described and applied to obtain results on unrestricted convergence of multiaverages. In the second part…

Inspired by topological Wiener-Wintner theorems we study the mean ergodicity of amenable semigroups of Markov operators on $C(K)$ and show the connection to the convergence of strong and weak ergodic nets. The results are then used to…

The goal of this paper is to survey the history, development and current status of the Return Times Theorem and its many extensions and variations. Let $(X, \mathcal{F}, \mu)$ be a finite measure space and let $T:X \rightarrow X$ be a…

Let $F_2$ denote the free group on two generators $a,b$. For any measure-preserving system $(X, {\mathcal X}, \mu, (T_g)_{g \in F_2})$ on a finite measure space $X = (X,{\mathcal X},\mu)$, any $f \in L^1(X)$, and any $n \geq 1$, define the…

In this paper, we survey physically related applications of a class of weighted quasi-Monte Carlo methods from a theoretical, deterministic perspective, and establish quantitative universal rapid convergence results via various regularity…

For an ergodic map $T$ and a non-constant, real-valued $f \in L^1$, the ergodic averages $\mathbb{A}_N f(x) = \frac{1} {N} \sum_{n=1}^N f(T^n x)$ converge a.e., but the convergence is never monotone. Depending on particular properties of…
