Let $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu, T)$ be a measure preserving system. We prove the pointwise convergence of the averages $$\frac{1}{N^2}\sum_{n,m= 0}^{N-1} f_1(T^nx)f_2(T^mx)f_3(T^{n+m}x)$$ and of similar averages with seven bounded functions.
We establish a pointwise convergence result for ergodic averages modeled along orbits of the form $(n\lfloor n\sqrt{k}\rfloor)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$, where $k$ is an arbitrary positive rational number with $\sqrt{k}\not\in\mathbb{Q}$. Namely,…
Let $T$ be a power bounded Hilbert space operator without unimodular eigenvalues. We show that the subsequential ergodic averages $N^{-1}\sum_{n=1}^N T^{a_n}$ converge in the strong operator topology for a wide range of sequences $(a_n)$,…
We offer a generalization of the recent result of Tao (building on earlier results of Conze and Lesigne, Furstenberg and Weiss, Zhang, Host and Kra, Frantzikinakis and Kra and Ziegler) that the nonconventional ergodic averages associated to…
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…
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…
Let $U$ be a unitary operator acting on the Hilbert space $H$, $\a:\{1,..., 2k\}\mapsto\{1,..., k\}$ a pair--partition, and finally $A_{1},...,A_{2k-1}\in B(H)$. We show that the ergodic average $$…
We study pointwise convergence of entangled averages of the form \[ \frac{1}{N^k}\sum_{1\leq n_1,\ldots, n_k\leq N} T_m^{n_{\alpha(m)}}A_{m-1}T^{n_{\alpha(m-1)}}_{m-1}\ldots A_2T_2^{n_{\alpha(2)}}A_1T_1^{n_{\alpha(1)}} f, \] where $f\in…
A sequence $(s_n)$ of integers is good for the mean ergodic theorem if for each invertible measure preserving system $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu,T)$ and any bounded measurable function $f$, the averages $ \frac1N \sum_{n=1}^N f(T^{s_n}x)$ converge…
Let $(X,\nu,T)$ be a measure-preserving system, and let $P_1,\ldots, P_k$ be polynomials with integer coefficients. We prove that, for any $f_1,\ldots, f_k\in L^{\infty}(X)$, the M\"obius-weighted polynomial multiple ergodic averages…
We discuss the Pointwise Ergodic Theorem for the Gaussian divisor function $d(n)$, that is, for a measure preserving $\mathbb Z[i]$ action $T$, the limit $$\lim_{N\rightarrow \infty} \frac{1}{D(N)} \sum _{\mathscr{N} (n) \leq N} d(n)…
In this article, we study the bilaterally almost uniform (b.a.u.) convergence of weighted averages of a positive Dunford-Schwartz operator on the noncommutative $L_p$-spaces associated to a semifinite von Neumann algebra by a large number…
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…
Let $g:\mathbb{N}\to\{-1,1\}$ be a completely multiplicative function, $\mu$ be the M\"obius function and $\mu_2^2(n)$ be the indicator that $n$ is cubefree. We prove that $f=\mu^2g$ and $f=\mu_2^2g$ have unbounded partial sums. Our proofs…
We study the pointwise convergence of some weighted averages linked to averages along cubes. We show that if $(X,\mathcal{B},\mu, T_i)$ are not necessarily commuting measure preserving systems on the same finite measure space and if $f_i,$…
Let $(X,\mu)$ be a probability space, $G$ a countable amenable group and $(F_n)_n$ a left F\o lner sequence in $G$. This paper analyzes the non-conventional ergodic averages \[\frac{1}{|F_n|}\sum_{g \in F_n}\prod_{i=1}^d (f_i\circ…
We introduce an ergodic approach to the study of {\em joint normality} of representations of numbers. For example, we show that for any integer $b \geq 2$ almost every number $x \in [0,1)$ is jointly normal with respect to the $b$-expansion…
Let $(X, \mathcal{B}, \mu)$ be a probability measure space and $T_1$, $T_2$, $T_3$ three not necessarily commuting measure preserving transformations on $(X, \mathcal{B}, \mu)$. We prove that for all bounded functions $f_1$, $f_2$, $f_3$…
We introduce a simple sieve-theoretic approach to studying partial sums of multiplicative functions which are close to their mean value. This enables us to obtain various new results as well as strengthen existing results with new proofs.…
We establish results with an arithmetic flavor that generalize the polynomial multidimensional Szemeredi theorem and related multiple recurrence and convergence results in ergodic theory. For instance, we show that in all these statements…
