We study an intermittent quasistatic dynamical system composed of nonuniformly hyperbolic Pomeau--Manneville maps with time-dependent parameters. We prove an ergodic theorem which shows almost sure convergence of time averages in a certain…

The mean ergodic theorem is equivalent to the assertion that for every function K and every epsilon, there is an n with the property that the ergodic averages A_m f are stable to within epsilon on the interval [n,K(n)]. We show that even…

The trivial proof of the ergodic theorem for a finite set $Y$ and a permutation $T:Y\to Y$ shows that for an arbitrary function $f:Y\to{\mathbb R}$ the sequence of ergodic means $A_n(f,T)$ stabilizes for $n \gg |T|$. We show that if $|Y|$…

We show that the usual Born-Oppenheimer type of approximation used in quantum gravity, in which a semiclassical time parameter emerges from a weak-coupling expansion of the Wheeler-DeWitt constraint, leads to a unitary theory at least up to…

We explore a duality between von-Neumann's mean ergodic theorem in von-Neumann algebra and Birkhoff's mean ergodic theorem in the pre-dual Banach space of von-Neumann algebras. Besides improving known mean ergodic theorems on von-Neumann…

We state and prove a generalization of Kingman's ergodic theorem on a measure-preserving dynamical system $(X,\mathcal{F},\mu,T)$ where the $\mu$-almost sure subadditivity condition $f_{n+m} \leq f_n + f_m \circ T^{n}$ is relaxed to a…

In \cite{BAMU}, an ergodic theorem \`a la Birkhoff-von Neumann for the action of the fundamental group of a compact negatively curved manifold on the boundary of its universal cover is proved. A quick corollary is the irreducibility of the…

Let $S$ and $T$ be measure-preserving transformations of a probability space $(X,{\mathcal B},\mu)$. Let $f$ be a bounded measurable functions, and consider the integrals of the corresponding `double' ergodic averages:…

An instability property of the Birkhoff's ergodic theorem and related asymptotic laws with respect to small violations of algorithmic randomness is studied. The Shannon--McMillan--Breiman theorem and all universal compression schemes are…

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 introduce a natural equivalence relation on the space $\sH_0$ of horofunctions of a word hyperbolic group that take the value 0 at the identity. We show that there are only finitely many ergodic measures that are invariant under this…

This work reveals a fundamental link between general covariance and Birkhoff's theorem. We extend Birkhoff's theorem from general relativity to a broad class of generally covariant gravity theories formulated in the Hamiltonian framework.…

Birkhoff's theorem for spherically symmetric vacuum spacetimes is a key theorem in studying local systems in general relativity theory. However realistic local systems are only approximately spherically symmetric and only approximately…

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…

Let $(X,\mathcal{A}, \mu)$ be a probability measure space and let $T_i,$ $1\leq i\leq H,$ be commuting invertible measure preserving transformations on this measure space. We prove the following pointwise results; The averages…

Convergence properties of random ergodic averages have been extensively studied in the literature. In these notes, we exploit a uniform estimate by Cohen \& Cuny who showed convergence of a series along randomly perturbed times for…

We prove that the ergodic Ces\' aro averages generated by a positive Dunford-Schwartz operator in a noncommutative space $L^p(\mathcal M,\tau)$, $1<p<\infty$, converge almost uniformly (in Egorov's sense). This problem goes back to the…

This work is a contribution to the study of the ergodic and stochastic properties of Z^d-periodic dynamical systems preserving an infinite measure. We establish functional limit theorems for natural Birkhoff sums related to local times of…

Birkhoff's theorem is a classic result that characterizes locally spherically symmetric solutions of the Einstein equations. In this paper, we illustrate the consequences of its local nature for the cases of vacuum and positive cosmological…
