In this paper we introduce and explore the notion of rigidity group, associated with a collection of finitely many sequences, and show that this concept has many, somewhat surprising characterizations of algebraic, spectral, and unitary…

In this note we prove the a pointwise ergodic theorem for functions taking values in a separable complete CAT(0)-space, analogous to Lindenstrauss' pointwise ergodic theorem for real-valued integrable functions on a probability space…

We present recent results about the asymptotic behavior of ergodic products of isometries of a metric space X. If we assume that the displacement is integrable, then either there is a sublinear diffusion or there is, for almost every…

Furstenberg, Katznelson and Weiss proved in the early 1980s that every measurable subset of the plane with positive density at infinity has the property that all sufficiently large real numbers are realised as the Euclidean distance between…

The principal results proved in this expository thesis are the IP polynomial Szemer\'edi theorem for nilpotent groups and the multiple term return times theorem with nilsequence weights. It also contains extensions of the convergence…

We analyze the dichotomy amenable/paradoxical in the context of (discrete, countable, unital) semigroups and corresponding semigroup rings. We consider also F{\o}lner's type characterizations of amenability and give an example of a…

Following methods of Bannon-Marrakchi-Ozawa, we show that for coamenable inclusion $\mathcal{S}\leq \mathcal{R}$ of ergodic, probability measure-preserving relations, we have that $\mathcal{R}$ is strongly ergodic if and only if…

For a locally compact Abelian group $G$ and a continuous weight function $\omega$ on $G$ we show that the Beurling algebra $L^1(G, \omega)$ is weakly amenable if and only if there is no nontrivial continuous group homomorphism $\phi$: $G\to…

This paper deals with ergodic theorems for particular time-inhomogeneous Markov processes, whose the time-inhomogeneity is asymptotically periodic. Under a Lyapunov/minorization condition, it is shown that, for any measurable bounded…

We investigate translation actions of countable dense subgroups of non-unimodular locally compact second countable (lcsc) groups. Using left-right actions, we show that the left translation action $\Gamma \curvearrowright G$ given by a…

Let $(X,\mu)$ be an arbitrary measure space equipped with a family of pairwise commuting measure preserving transformations $T_1, \dotsc, T_m$. We prove that the ergodic averages \[ A_{N;X}^{P_1, \dotsc, P_m}f = \frac{1}{N} \sum_{n=1}^N…

We show slow convergence of weighted ergodic averages for flows and actions of countable amenable groups.

We consider the amenability of groupoids $G$ equipped with a group valued cocycle $c:G\to Q$ with amenable kernel $c^{-1}(e)$. We prove a general result which implies, in particular, that $G$ is amenable whenever $Q$ is amenable and if…

Let $g$ be an element of a finite group $G$. For a positive integer $n$, let $E_n(g)$ be the subgroup generated by all commutators $[...[[x,g],g],\dots,g]$ over $x\in G$, where $g$ is repeated $n$ times. By Baer's theorem, if $E_n(g)=1$,…

We prove an analog of Rudolph's theorem for actions of countable amenable groups, which asserts that among invariant measures with entropy at least c on the $G$-shift $(\Lambda^G,\sigma)$, a typical measure has entropy $c$ and is Bernoulli.…

This article is devoted to studying individual ergodic theorems for subsequential weighted ergodic averages on the noncommutative Lp-spaces associated to a semifinite von Neumann algebra M. In particular, we establish the convergence of…

We give a simple and explicit proof that the free group $\mathbb{F}_2$ admits a measure equivalence embedding into any nonamenable locally compact second countable (lcsc) group $G$. We use this to prove that every nonamenable lcsc group $G$…

Gallagher's ergodic theorem is a result in metric number theory. It states that the approximation of real numbers by rational numbers obeys a striking 'all or nothing' behaviour. We discuss a formalisation of this result in the Lean theorem…

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 $\Gamma$ be a countably infinite group. A common theme in ergodic theory is to start with a probability measure-preserving (p.m.p.) action $\Gamma \curvearrowright (X, \mu)$ and a map $f \in L^1(X, \mu)$, and to compare the global…
