Let $(X,\Sigma,m,\tau)$ be an ergodic system, that is, $(X, \Sigma, m)$ is a probability space and $\tau: X \to X$ is an invertible ergodic $m$-preserving transformation. For a function $f:X\to\mathbb R$, let $A_Nf$ denote the $N$th ergodic…

We present a unified approach to extensions of Bourgain's Double Recurrence Theorem and Bourgain's Return Times Theorem to integer parts of the Kronecker sequence, emphasizing stopping times and metric entropy. Specifically, we prove the…

In 2022, using methods from ergodic theory, Kra, Moreira, Richter, and Robertson resolved a longstanding conjecture of Erd\H{o}s about sumsets in large subsets of the natural numbers. In this paper, we extend this result to several…

We study mean convergence of multiple ergodic averages, where the iterates arise from smooth functions of polynomial growth that belong to a Hardy field. Our results include all logarithmico-exponential functions of polynomial growth, such…

In this article it is proved, that every locally compact second countable group has a left invariant metric d, which generates the topology on G, and which is proper, ie. every closed d-bounded set in G is compact. Moreover, we obtain the…

We present a simple approach to questions of topological orbit equivalence for actions of countable groups on topological and smooth manifolds. For example, for any action of a countable group $\Gamma$ on a topological manifold where the…

In this paper, we first prove the strong Birkhoff Ergodic Theorem for subharmonic functions with the irrational shift on the Torus. Then, it is applied to the analytic quasi-periodic Jacobi cocycles. We show that if the Lyapunov exponent of…

We prove a general form of the regularity theorem for uniformity norms, and deduce an inverse theorem for these norms which holds for a class of compact nilspaces including all compact abelian groups, and also nilmanifolds; in particular we…

Every topological group $G$ has some natural compactifications which can be a useful tool of studying $G$. We discuss the following constructions: (1) the greatest ambit $S(G)$ is the compactification corresponding to the algebra of all…

Let $({\sf G},\alpha, \omega,\mathfrak B)$ be a measurable twisted action of the locally compact group ${\sf G}$ on a Banach $^*$-algebra $\mathfrak B$ and $\mathfrak A$ a differential Banach $^*$-subalgebra of $\mathfrak B$, which is…

Let $G$ be a compact abelian group, let $\mu$ be the corresponding Haar measure, and let $\hat G$ be the Pontryagin dual of $G$. Further, let $C_p$ denote the Schatten class of operators on some separable infinite dimensional Hilbert space,…

We generalise the definition of a group algebra so that it makes sense for non-locally compact topological groups, in particular, we require that the representation theory of the group algebra is isomorphic (in the sense of Gelfand-Raikov)…

For a jointly measurable probability-preserving action $\tau:\mathbb{R}^D\curvearrowright (X,\mu)$ and a tuple of polynomial maps $p_i:\mathbb{R}\to \mathbb{R}^D$, $i=1,2,...,k$, the multiple ergodic averages \[ \frac{1}{T}\int_0^T…

We study amenability of definable and topological groups. Among our main technical tools is an elaboration on and strengthening of the Massicot-Wagner version of the stabilizer theorem, and some results around measures. As an application we…

We study in this paper the validity of the mean ergodic theorem along \emph{left} F\o lner sequences in a countable amenable group $G$. Although the \emph{weak} ergodic theorem always holds along \emph{any} left F\o lner sequence in $G$, we…

Given a transformation $T$ of a standard measure space $(X,\mu)$, let $\Cal M(T)$ denote the set of spectral multiplicities of the Koopman operator $U_T$ defined in $L^2(X,\mu)\ominus\Bbb C$ by $U_Tf:=f\circ T$. It is discussed in this…

Let $K$ be a compact metrizable group and $\Ga$ be a group of automorphisms of $K$. We first show that each $\ap \in \Ga$ is distal on $K$ implies $\Ga$ itself is distal on $K$, a local to global correspondence provided $\Ga$ is a…

Let $(X, \cal B, \nu)$ be a probability space and let $\Gamma$ be a countable group of $\nu$-preserving invertible maps of $X$ into itself. To a probability measure $\mu$ on $\Gamma$ corresponds a random walk on $X$ with Markov operator $P$…

We study the limiting behavior of multiple ergodic averages involving several not necessarily commuting measure preserving transformations. We work on two types of averages, one that uses iterates along combinatorial parallelepipeds, and…

We consider the convergence of moving averages in the general setting of ergodic theory or stationary ergodic processes. We characterize when there is universal convergence of moving averages based on complete convergence to zero of the…
